Debates and numerous writings, in a somewhat combative tone, have emerged regarding the enterprise, properties and wealth of the former Party of Labour. The views expressed in this debate have gone so far as to make it not a simple issue, but a major social and political problem. The demand to return the properties and wealth of the former PPSh has become one of the main topics of public discussion, especially in the period of transition. In these conditions, many demand that the wealth of the former party pass into the hands of the state. Former communists, who held power until the end of their lives, are accused of wanting to appropriate the wealth of the Party of Labour, but their opponents stress that this wealth should not become the property of another political force, but should belong to the Albanian state. This idea is based on the need for justice and transparency. This debate also mentions concrete names and issues, such as former officials, properties, buildings, land and institutions that were part of the PPSh.
