Diaspora’s role in their home country’s economic development : the case of Kosovo
Mimoza Dushi, Albert Berila, 2025, original scientific article

Abstract: This study critically examines the challenges faced by the Kosovo Albanian diaspora in investing in their home country. Despite being a significant economic asset, particularly through substantial remittances that contribute to the national GDP, the diaspora encounters various barriers to effective investment. Based on 53 biographical interviews (2014–2016) with migrants in Switzerland and Germany, as well as 23 interviews with key informants, including officials, trade union representatives, and civil society actors, the study highlights the absence of adequate incentive packages to support diaspora driven investments in Kosovo. The research addresses both individual and policy levels, offering recommendations aimed at enhancing the impact of diaspora financial initiatives.
Keywords: diaspora investments, Kosovo Albanian, remittances, economic development, policy recommendations, qualitative research, Kosovo

The economic and social impacts of colonial emigration on Neuchâtel during the “long 19th century”
Fabio Rossinelli, Ricardo Borrmann, 2025, original scientific article

Abstract: The Swiss Canton of Neuchâtel was able to develop and become one of the country’s economic poles—particularly in the export of watches—thanks to the movement of emigrants to Europe and European immigrants to Switzerland. At the same time, missionaries, explorers, and businessmen left Neuchâtel to travel to the colonial world. Historiography has never linked these two migratory phenomena. This article aims to fill this gap. On the one side, it will provide an overview of the existing historiography. On the other, through some case studies, it will propose evidence and new research approaches. The result will be an invitation to de-Europeanize the history of Neuchâtel in order to inscribe it into the global history of the colonial era.
Keywords: colonial migration, colonial trade, economic development, economic and family networks, de-Europeanization
