THE UNIVERSITY OF TETOVA AS A PEACEMAKER IN THE REPUBLIC OF NORTH MACEDONIA

Summary/Abstract: The word 'university' is derived from the word 'universe' and in this prism the university is the arena where all corpuses of values such as education, science, culture, art, emancipation and civilization are interwoven. The emergence of universities has given rise to other historical developmental trends of humanity, accelerating social processes and contributing to the assumption of universal value and the building of democracy. Universities have been those who have sketched every social step, not to prevail "everlasting serenity, for "everlasting serenity" is death itself. And a people without a university, is a dead people. Thus, it can be freely stated that with the opening of the University of Tetova, Albanians of Macedonia challenged death, undoing and assimilation, and today they enjoy, like never before throughout history, the benefits brought by higher education in their native language. However, the road to establishment of an Albanian language university in the Republic of North Macedonia was difficult and full of vicissitudes. Although in disadvantageous circumstances, which will be elaborated below in this paper, still the will and the inevitable need for education in native language in the end triumphed, and in turn led to the creation of conditions for stability in the inter-ethnic plane, but also in the creation of permanent peace in the Republic of North Macedonia.
