A pitfall survey of beetles in steppe ecosystems of the Republic of Moldova was conducted. Five locations were investigated, two from the Balti steppe and three from the Bugeac steppe. As a result, a total of 563 beetle specimens, belonging to 98 species, 51 genera, and 15 families were collected. Among families recorded Carabidae was the one with the highest number of species. The ecological features of collected beetle species were revealed. The results show that steppes are still important biodiversity reservoirs within the boundaries of the country and urgent conservation activities are required.

The division of the entire system of law into public law and private law comes from ancient times, which we have referred to in several previous personal publications. In this article we will analyze the evolution of private law in the Republic of Moldova. Private law constitutes one of the fundamental subdivisions of the science of law as a whole. At the level of the Republic of Moldova, the subdivision in question represents a distinct specific in the context that: (i) it is stratified into numerous branches of law and (ii) it constitutes a symbiosis of several national, supranational and international private legislations that correspond to modern trends of evolution of related social relations. One of the main branches of domestic private law is civil law, namely the rules tangent to the branch of law in question regulate a considerable number of social relations varied in terms of structure and content. This article will briefly address evolutionary-historical aspects of the private law legislation of the Republic of Moldova. In particular, we will analyze the influence of the Model Civil Code of the CIS States, on the one hand, and European legislation, on the other. Historical aspects will be divided into three periods.

In the modern world, under the influence of global factors, there are opposite changes in ethnic and national identity: on the one hand, the number of sources of self-identification is growing, individual identity becomes more complex and changeable, up to its disappearance, on the other hand, there is a revival and restoration of ethnic groups within the framework of transnational associations. Against the background of the aforementioned effects of globalization, the Republic of Moldova is experiencing a deep crisis of civic identity, one of the reasons for which is that ethnic minorities are exposed to numerous external influences and, as a result, are more prone building their identity within their own or kindred ethnic groups. The article presented to the reader is devoted to the study of some examples of the impact of countries such as Romania, Russia, Turkey, Ukraine, Bulgaria and other international actors on the ethnic minorities of Moldova, in order to determine the trends, approaches and nature of their impact on ethnic minorities in the country. Given the fact that ethnic minorities make up about 25 percent of the population of the Republic of Moldova, the problems of their comprehensive integration are an extremely important aspect of stable development, as they are directly related to the prospects for the formation of the identity of the Moldovan people and the success of the state’s domestic and foreign policies.

This article reports on the edaphic beetle diversity and abundance study conducted on the teritory of the Republic of Moldova during 2005 and 2014 in forest ecosystems located near Branzeni and Zabriceni. All insects were collected using pitfall traps techniques. In total, 1620 beetle specimens were collected, representing 31 species from 17 genera and 4 families. The largest family was Carabidae, followed by Silphidae, Scarabaeidae and Lucanidae. Carabidae also represented the greatest proportion in terms of number of individuals. Seventeen species were common in all investigated forest ecosystems. The most abundant and dominant for all ecosystems investigated proved to be the species Nicrophorus vespilloides. Of the rare beetle species in the investigated forests have been reported species Carabus ullrichi and Lucanus cervus both with the status of vulnerable species.

In this article, the authors explore the theoretical and practical aspects of the procedure for addressing the European Court of Human Rights. Many citizens of the Republic of Moldova apply to the European Court of Human Rights for the protection of violated rights. For several years and as a result of various factors, the Court has been overwhelmed by the number of individual applications. However, the vast majority of these applications (over 95%) are rejected, without being examined on the merits, because they did not meet one of the admissibility criteria provided by the European Convention on Human Rights. This situation creates a double frustration. On the one hand, having the obligation to respond to each request, the Court does not have the opportunity to focus, within a reasonable time, on cases that require a substantive examination, and this is of no real use to litigants. On the other hand, the actions of tens of thousands of applicants are rejected without appeal, often after years of waiting. The proposals of the authors, who must increase the guarantees of human rights protection, are very important.

AbstractThe Republic of Moldova has a long history of shifting borders, and a short history as an independent state. The real development of higher education started only after 1944, in the form of an integral part of the Soviet system of education and research. After independence, its development was shaped strongly by market forces, a demographic decline, alternative study options abroad and last but not least, the all-too-often contradictory policy preferences of changing governments and ministers for education. As a result, on the one hand, the country perpetuated many of the Soviet institutional arrangements in the higher education system, especially the centralised governance arrangements and the academy of science system. On the other hand, the political will to break with the Soviet past and to orientate the country towards Romania and the European Union has spawned a number of policy initiatives, including the ascension to the Bologna Process, greater institutional autonomy, governance democratisation and the implementation of a quality assurance framework along European models. Their implementation, however, has often been hampered by relatively weak institutions and political factionism. As a consequence, the differentiation of the HE system of the Republic of Moldova takes the shape of a dynamic, often contradictory process in which instable institutions are attempting to cope with growing pressures of global, European and local origins.

Electronic voting, known as e-voting, has become increasingly popular in our fast developing technology-driven world. Hence, the Republic of Moldova is a source country of migrants, a significant number of citizens reside abroad. Therefore in most of cases Moldovan citizens have to cast their vote in other countries when Moldova has to hold its elections. Presidential elections from 2016 showed that a poorly organized electing process could lead to violations of constitutional political rights. Hundreds of citizens that travelled a long journey to London, Bologna, Milano and other cities, where polling stations were located, were not able to cast their vote because election officials did not send enough ballot papers. For a country with a numerous Diaspora, e-voting could be a solution for all problems that Moldovans have related to the exercising of voting right. The process is seductively simple, but it is also shockingly vulnerable to different problems - from software failure to malicious hacking - and also requires some special conditions for its implementation. This paper aims to provide an insight into the issues of e-voting, and the debate of pros and cons surrounding it, in order to assess if this solution is the best way to go for Moldova.
