Abstract | The Gbeg tribes in northern Albania had been subject to a customary code known as the Kanun until the tribal system was destroyed by the Communist Party after WWII. One of the salient features of the ...Kanun is that it allows men to take revenge, resulting in a blood feud. Revenge, which seems to be indispensable to restore and keep social order in a society without state power such as that of northern Albania, is taken as an action of justice, which is endorsed by the ethical concepts of the Kanun. Previously I indicated that 1) a society without state power has ethics and social order, 2) revenge is the ultimate sanction of the wrong which enables men to restore and keep social order, 3) revenge is construed to be an action of justice because the violence of revenge is a sacred force which sacrifices the blood of the offender (profaner) to the gods. In the present study, I try to elucidate how blood feuds and reconciliation coded in the Kanun actually proceed in northern Albania. Comparing the structure of blood feuds and reconciliation in northern Albania with those of other societies without state power, I will discuss the functional and ethical implications of blood feuds in human society.show more |
