Abstract
The establishment of communism in Albania and country isolation happened after the WWII. When repression of authorities got stronger, there were individuals who repatriated to Albania. According to documents in the Archives, nothing has been written about them. In this paper, are analyzed data obtained from the archive of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, on time when these people repatriated, countries they came from, reasons of their return, authorities’ behavior and their integration to Albanian society of the time.
L'instaurazione del comunismo in Albania e l'isolamento del paese sono avvenuti subito dopo la Seconda Guerra Mondiale. Quando la repressione delle autorità si intensificò, alcune persone furono rimpatriate in Albania. La storiografia albanese ha scritto poco su questo fenomeno. Questo articolo analizza i dati ottenuti negli archivi, circa il momento in cui queste persone sono state rimpatriate, i paesi da cui provenivano, le ragioni del loro ritorno, il comportamento delle autorità e la loro integrazione nella società.
