K2.0 brings forward five longform articles that delve into the defining moments of Kosovo’s 1990s — a decade of repression, resilience, and resistance. Through personal narratives and historical insights, this series explores the underground economy that kept communities afloat, the foundations of the parallel state, the silent and loud acts of defiance, and the enduring power of solidarity. These stories shed light on the struggles and strategies that shaped Kosovo’s path toward freedom and statehood.
