Albanian Social and Philosophical Thinking of the '30s-Neo-Albanianism

Irena Nikaj is clearly one of the best students that I have ever had. That conclusions covers all my years of teaching at the University of Tirana, later at the Institut of Social Studies at the Hague, the netherlands, at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, from were I received my PhD., at Eastern Michigan University and various other universities in the United States
From the very beginning Irena Nikaj has impresed me with her hunger for knowledge, the range of her cultural awareness, her intellectual abilities and her discipline, blending her creativity with her systematic application to her work. And she has lived up to that promise ever since

The monograph titled "Albanian Social and Philosophical Thinking of the '30s (Neo-Albanianism)" has not only theoretical, but also, practical value in the treatment and solution of the many complicated issues that are plaguing Albanian society at present. By introducing an excellent and quite visionary theoretical analysis, this book will preserve its theoretical and practical value even in the future.
