When the famous Swiss writer Lukas Bärfuss recently won the prestigious "Büchner" literary prize, he said during his speech that "Nazis and their philosophy have never disappeared and denazification has not happened." Many of those who criticized his speech argued that he was denying the great work that has been done by memory institutions in the last 75 years in a Germany that faced two dictatorships. But there were also those who appreciated his intervention, because public provocations on such important issues produce debates in society so that responsibility for the past is not forgotten. I first remembered this debate a few days after the departure of ISKK director, colleague Agron Tufa, from Albania for political asylum in Switzerland.
Because in Albania, still 30 years after the fall Cambodia Telegram Number Data of the dictatorship, it is impossible to provoke, publish and report on the crimes that have been left without responsibility, without taking a high personal cost, up to the threat of life. In fact, in recent years a disturbing phenomenon has occurred, the attacks on the few voices that want to keep alive the memory of the victims of the regime have increased and at the same time the voices have increased, if not in full defense of that regime, in justification and the reduction of "persecutions", most of them already recognized internationally. Apart from daily publications in the press of the day for and by nostalgics, the dictator's personal doctor missed last year a historic opportunity to demystify the cult of the dictator's personality.
Criticisms of the regime were both lukewarm and superficial, considering his position and the access he had not only to the personal life of the figure most discussed among Albanians, but also to the Bloc's "cellar" arsenal (beyond the rumors about women of grandmother that readers could have been spared). The memorial that the faithful doctor also raises in this book of the dictator's widow, would be further strengthened with the memories that the latter published just a few weeks ago. It is not known whether there was an agreement between the two authors as to which book will be published first, and it does not matter.
