Is Moldova Ready to Grow? Assessment of Post-crisis Policies (1999-2000)
No full textThe efforts to stabilize the Moldovan economy after the crisis of 1998 have been largely successful. The country avoided international default as current account position radically improved, cooperation with international financial institutions was re-established and a significant primary fiscal surplus was achieved. As a result, the exchange rate was stabilised and inflation substantially reduced. Moreover, several important structural reforms were implemented and privatisation of key-industries pursued with much more determination than previously. However, only economic growth would bring real solutions to the persistent problems of external and internal imbalances of the Moldovan economy and would allow the country to face its heavy debt burden in the future. Unfortunately, prospects for sustainable growth remain weak, as the most important issues that constrain private entrepreneurship and investments have not been effectively tackled. These issues include: lack of territorial integrity, ineffective legal system, widespread corruption and rent seeking. It is unlikely that these problems can be solved until the Moldovan parliament assumes full ownership of reform process.Moldova, post-crisis
Moldova's European Choice: ‘Between Two Stools’?
No full textThe article examines EU–Moldovan relations from the perspective of the external governance framework. It reveals some considerable progress in the procedural engagement of both parties. However, the internal instability experienced by Moldova in 2009 is seen to have disrupted these relations, stalling further negotiations and even questioning Moldova's true commitment to Europe. To understand this ostensibly sudden change in Moldova's allegiance to Europe, it is argued that analysis needs to go beyond conventional governance framework(s). Premised on the notion of ‘constitutive boundaries’ a ‘partnership’ perspective offers a more nuanced understanding of the boundaries of ‘the other’, thus revealing the salience of geopolitics and culture in Moldova's relations with the outside world
Children’s Album for Piano in the Works of MoldOvan Composers
No full textThe author of the article examines piano works dedicated to children written by Moldovan composers from the point of view of their use in the piano educational practice as children’s cycles (albums and suites consisting of piano miniatures). For many Moldovan composers (L. Gurov, S. Lobel, V. Rotaru, Z. Tkach, A. Mulyar, B. Dubossarsky, O. Negrutsa, G. Ciobanu, etc.) the work on piano miniatures was a kind of «creative laboratory» that preceded the appearance of larger works — suites, sonatas, concertos, symphonies, etc.
The priorities in the children’s piano works of Moldovan authors are contrasting in style: slow lyrical pieces (Lullaby, Doina, Prelude, Song, Poem, etc.) and mobile miniatures (Jock, Batuta, Ostinato, Comic, Scherzo, etc.) with dance or scherzo-humor character. These plays can greatly enrich the repertoire of children’s music schools and lyceums, as they are distinguished by Moldovan color, national and genre properties, peculiarity of the figurative-emotional system and the certainty of technical tasks
Moldovan labor migration into the European Union
No full textThe article gives a characteristic of Moldovan labor migration into the European Union. The authors show that Moldovan labor migration into the EU begins in the second half of the 1990’s. Since the late 1990’s – the early 2000’s, it acquires a mass character.
The main reasons of Moldovan migration into the European Union are economic reasons. The factors that determine the choice of country for labor migration are varied. These are the desire to earn more money and to provide the growth of welfare for themselves and their family; lingual proximity; the presence of social capital, and others.
The different forms of infiltration and stay in the EU that are used by the Moldovan labor migrants are uncovered. Among these, tourist visas, illegal border crossings, illegal employment and legal individual and collective labor contracts, labor quotas, the visa-free regime and labor visas are noted.
The process of formation of Moldovan communities in the EU is becoming massive since the 2000’s. The most attractive countries for Moldovan labor migration are Italy, Germany, France, the UK, Spain, Czechia, and Portugal. Italy is the absolute leader in attracting Moldovan labor migrants.
The formation of Moldovan communities in the EU corresponds to world practice: starting with the familiarization with the capital cities, the migrants gradually familiarize themselves with the accepting country’s other regions. The Moldovan communities form primarily through the presence of labor migrants of young ages. Typical, especially on the early stage, is the clearly defined gender direction, conditioned by the requirements of the labor market in the destination countries. The consolidation of migrant communities leads to the expansion of the range of age structure and to the leveling of the sex/ gender structure of the Moldovan communities.
Male Moldovan labor migrants are mainly engaged in constructions, women – in the field of housekeeping and nursing services. Gradually, the field of their labor activity expands; they work in different fields, including prestigious and highly paid ones. Among the Moldovan labor migrants, there is also a growth in the number of businessmen. However, even today, most migrants are engaged in work that is of lower status than their actual education and qualification.
An analysis of the main trends of Moldovan labor migration into the European Union shows that Moldovan migrants are demonstrating their desire to integrate into the accepting society, to transform their status from illegal into legal, from unqualified into professional status, that corresponds to their level of education, qualification, and experience of labor activity. Among the Moldovan labor migrants there is an increasing number of people in possession of double and triple citizenship. There is a clear tendency to obtain the citizenship of the country of residence. From labor migrants they turn into labor emigrants, their future plans and strategies change. They are striving to become fullfledged citizens of their new homeland, and have no desire to return to Moldova.
The EU visa-free regime with the Republic of Moldova is creating new possibilities for Moldovan labor migration into EU countries. The amount of Moldovan short-term labor migrants into EU countries in the conditions of the visa-free regime has increased more than twice. Temporary stay in the accepting country and labor activity, as a rule, does not alter the decision to return home with the majority of the short-term Moldovan migrant
Moldovan Wines and their Export
No full textThis Bachelor's thesis deals with Moldovan wines and their export. The main objective is to conduct an analysis of Moldovan wines and a subsequent evaluation of the evolution of their export. In this thesis I also look at the hypothesis that the Association Agreement with the EU has significantly boosted exports of Moldovan wines. The work is divided into three main chapters. The first chapter is aimed at obtaining supporting materials and to carry out research into the current and historical state of wine production in Moldova. Second chapter is devoted to exporting Moldovan wines and identifies its biggest problems. The third chapter deals with the hypothesis already mentioned, which I will eventually confirm or refute.Předmětem zkoumání bakalářské práce jsou moldavská vína a jejich export. Hlavním cílem je provedení rozboru moldavských vín a následné vyhodnocení vývoje jejich exportu. V této práci se také zabývám hypotézou, že Asociační dohoda s EU výrazně posílila vývoz moldavských vín. Práce je rozdělena do tří hlavních kapitol. První kapitola je zaměřena na získání podkladů a na provedení rešerše současného i historického stavu produkce vín v Moldavsku. Další kapitola je věnována exportu moldavských vín a identifikuje jeho největší problémy. Třetí kapitola se zabývá již zmíněnou hypotézou, kterou nakonec potvrdím, nebo vyvrátím
THE POSITION OF THE EUROPEAN CONVENTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS’ PROVISIONS IN THE ROMANIAN JUDICIAL SYSTEM
No full textAccording to the Constitution of Romania, those international treaties and pacts, to
which Romania participates, have priority toward the national laws. With the ratification of
the Convention in 1994, Romania assumed the obligation of compliance with all the
fundamental human rights and liberties, apart from the Convention, all of these having direct
applicability. Its conventions and protocols cannot be correctly interpreted and applied but
only by reference to the Court`s jurisprudence. Thereby, a conventional block is taking shape.
The amendments brought by the New Criminal Code and the New Criminal Procedure Code
reflect the influence of the Convention and ECHR jurisprudence on the national regulation
Influence of the microtopography of the SiO covered by PVA layers on the tilt angle of liquid crystals
No full textAn evaluation of the tilt angle variation observed recently when unrubbed polyvinylic alcohol is deposited on obliquely evaporated SiO layers is presented. The method of calculation supposes that the variation of the tilt angle is due to the modification of the initial topography of SiO during the coverage process with the polymeric film. The Laplace equation was obtained by minimizing the elastic energy of the system in the uniconstant approximation and was analytically solved. The found variation of the tilt angle is in good agreement with the experimentally observed one
The Moldovan Dialect and the Linguistic Union of Eurasian Languages
No full textIn this paper, we analyze the knowledge about the language rather than the langue as object of knowledge. It is precisely from this perspective that it becomes possible to analyze in an original light the relationship between the Romanian, Moldovan, and Russian languages. To reach our goal, we will discuss the article by Roman Jakobson, K kharakteristike evraaziiskovo iazikovovo soiuza, and, in the wake of this analysis, we will situate the research of the linguist Mikhail Sergheievskij, who studied the Moldovan language and its relationship with the Russian language towards the end of the 1920's. Our article will proceed through the following steps. We will start off by analyzing the fundamental concepts in Roman Jakobson's article, such as "language union", "phonological correlation", and "structural proximity". In order to better grasp the epistemological status of these concepts, we will then make a detour through the work of Pyotr Savitsky, in which he discusses the relationship between geographical and linguistic studies. Finally, building on the research of Mikhaïl Sergheievskij, we intend to show where the specificity of the connection between the Russian and Moldovan languages lies. This final evaluation will give us the possibility to make a brief comparative analysis between the thesis of Moldovan grammars published during the 1920's of Soviet Moldova and the knowledge about the language that we will discuss in the texts of Roman Jakobson and Mikhail Sergheivskij
A Modern Perspective on the History of Moldovan Statehood a Century Ago
No full textThe review highlights the monographic study by Galushchenko, O. S. (2024). One hundred years of the Moldavian ASSR. Moldavian statehood east of the Dniester. LAMBERT Academic Publishing (ISBN: 978‑620-7-63910-6). The researcher makes an attempt to analyze the development of historical events by bringing new facts discovered in recent times to their coverage and analysis. The book is characterized by attention to the subjective factor, which, in the author’s fair opinion, played not the least role in the creation of Moldovan autonomy and its further destiny.
As it seems, O. S. Galuschenko’s book touches another important problem, which goes beyond the limits of the Left-Bank Subnistria, namely, the formation and dynamics of Moldovan statehood. In the context of this problem, the events covered in the monograph are only a segment, but a fundamental one, in the development of Moldovan state identity, which received a special resonance in the last years of existence and after the collapse of the USSR, when the Moldovan community split into supporters of the preservation of Moldovan statehood and adherents of unification with neighbouring Romania. Understanding that the researcher did not set a special goal of highlighting the dynamics of Moldovan state identity, the reviewer, alongside with analyzing the merits of Oleg Galuschenko’s monographic study, attempts to shortly overview the issue of Moldovan identity, resonating differently in the minds of the inhabitants of the left and right coasts of Moldova with particular force and urgency, especially with the coming to power of the current president M. Sandu and the majority of her party dominating in the parliament of the country, who are oriented to the levelling of Moldovan values, joining the European Union (which will lead to the dissolution of Moldova in Romania), integrating with NATO, dragging the country into the armed confrontation of the collective West with Russia in Ukraine
