Women鈥檚 changing position in Albania

Women鈥檚 changing position in Albania
This week on Eorpa, Darren Laing reports on the changing place of women in Albanian society. Although Albanian women, like women elsewhere in Europe, can increasingly expect the same opportunities as men in work and public life, in past generations this was not the case. A traditional code of laws, the Kanun, dictated that a woman鈥檚 place was in the home, obeying a husband. In some families the lack of a male head of a household led to a woman becoming a 鈥渂urrnesha鈥 or sworn virgin - taking on a male role, dressing as a man, doing a man鈥檚 work and being treated as a man. Darren Laing meets one of the few remaining burrneshas in Albania.

A new hydro-electric dam is causing controversy in Portugal.
