In fact, there are problems across all three measures, including with judicial independence, with the rule of law, and with civic values. On the last of these, research findings show that the citizens of Kosovo rank extremely low on trust of other citizens, low on engagement in social organizations, and tolerance of gays, lesbians, and atheists, but high on trust in the political institutions of their country and in pride of their newly independent state UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9789633860748 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9789633860748 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9789633860748/original ER -
