The author argues that by favoring and preserving the special status of brotherhood clans that operated on strong blood ties, the subsequent Venetian and Ottoman administrations contributed to the rise of great tribes in northern Albania during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The conclusions are based on a comparative analysis of examples from the Catasto Veneto di Scutari, 1416–1417 and The Ottoman Defter of Scutari 1485.

Although the Venetian state acquired the Albanian territories on promises of preserving local customs and traditions and protecting the territories from the Ottoman threat from the east, in practice, the administration's policies aimed at utilizing the natural resources, such as grain, salt, and timber, to mention a few, which were regularly controlled, collected and shipped straight to Venice. The Venetian state centralized all aspects of Venetian Albania's economy to its benefit and at the expense of the local Albanian population.
