Abstract

Migration is a human experience, which has arisen and developed in relation to the human society itself.In our era, immigration is associated with the integration and the globalization. Immigration is a modern intercommunications between cultures in a world increasingly with more multicultural, or in a world with a hybrid culture.Western multiculturalism as a space wherein the Albanian cultural integration moves.After the collapse of the communist system and coincidental that occurred the great things happening in the xxi century, the immigration can be a field study by the Transitology At the time when the crisis of philosophical thought is present, this phenomenon can be studied by a reflective philosophical thought (philosophy reflective)In this paper I am focused on Albanian emigration. Even and in the case of Albanians immigration is a similarity to the historical processes of Jewish people.Albanians have realized two tragic exodus mythical proportions: on xvi century to the Italy and on 90th years of xx century to the GreeceThe causes of this exodus were political reasons: In the first case (xvi cent.), was the Ottoman occupation of Albania. In the case of the 90th years of xx century, was the Albanian idolatry, atheist, and socialist totalitarian regime.Nowadays Albanian emigration continues, and the main cause is the economic and social.Integration as a cultural movement of the identity: Albanian integrating movement.Identity is a process, a movement where function three vectors: identity, being time and space. Integration is analyzed as a category which functions in relationship with identityEurope was more than an old house for Albanian emigrants. It was a new relationship. It was the new unknown culture.This road passes between assimilation and isolation. The most useful and the most effective vehicle of integration is the adaptation of immigrants.The integration and returning in home in time of globalization are not divided. On our days the key “returning in home” has a new dimension.In the global era between the individual and the fatherland (motherland) has a spiritual cultural relations. This relationship is there an ideal content. It is an eternal bond and is not as dependent on material factors.Integration of migrants passing through colliding positives and negative; progressives and regressive.The religion identity of Albanian is not any essential structural component of their identity. The religion of Albanians as a part of their culture. This tendency of European society is an integrating space for Albanians. So unlike all Muslims of other countries, Albanian Muslims are integrated quickly and easily to the European secularist environment.
