The KTA administers "publicly-owned and socially-owned enterprises and related assets", and is privatising businesses, not privately owned enterprises or assets.

Capitalism comes to Kosovo - at the expense of Serbian Socialism.

Big whoop.

The full name of Kosovo province is Kosovo and Metochia.

Metochia means church land. The principal land owner of Kosovo is Serbian Orthodox Church. The Church was stripped of their property by Commmunists, led by Croat dictator Tito and his Slovene sidecar Kardelj.

Much of 'socially owned" businesses were built on the land confiscated from the Church and from Serb owners by the communists.

What is going on in Kosovo now, is not an example of capitalist truimph over socialism, but quite opposite - capitalism being continuation of Communist policies to trample property rights.

And the Islamofascists are using these tactics to grab Church property as well.

Can't be a good pogrom if you leave the Churches standing, don't ya know!
