Like most complex legal texts, it cannot be read like a book. Therefore, the purpose here is to make it possible for anyone to understand what each chapter of the Agreement means, in terms of both the nature of the commitments that the parties take on and the prospects for their implementation. The first edition of this Handbook was published in 2016. Much has happened in the intervening two years in Moldova towards implementing the Agreement. The purpose therefore of this second edition is to move beyond explaining the Agreement, and to give an account of how it is being implemented and to offer some preliminary evaluation of the process. The Handbook has in mind a broad range of readers, including officials, parliamentarians, business leaders, lawyers, business consultants, think tanks, civil society organisations, university teachers, trainers, students and journalists. The 30 chapters in this Handbook are mainly the same as those in the Agreement, but they are not identical. Some chapters of lesser interest in the Agreement are not covered here, and there is some rearrangement of the various chapter headings. The present Handbook is one of a trilogy that covers very similar but not identical agreements between the EU on the one hand, and Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine on the other. All three books are available electronically for free downloading in English and the respective languages of the three countries at www.3dcftas.eu. There are some references in the Handbook to an Association Agenda, which is a document drawn up jointly by Moldova and the EU, reviewing progress in implementing the Association Agreement, and which usefully provides updating and some greater detail on various topics. The Agreement and Agenda are thus not to be ix x PREFACE confused. The official texts of both documents are also available in English and Romanian at www.3dcftas.eu. A much shorter and more accessible version of the first edition of the Handbook is available, with the aim of reaching a wider readership, including students. This version is also available for free downloading in English, Romanian and Russian at www.3dcftas.eu.

There was a large and thriving Jewish population in Bucovina. Jews were heavily represented in the crafts, the learned professions and in government. Jews lived in many towns in Bukovina, ranging from a metropolis such as Czernowitz, to many tiny shtetls1. Already oppressed by the January 1938 decree reconsidering their citizenship, Bucovina’s Jews became the direct target of persecution. Between June 28, 1940 and July 5, 1941, Northern Bukovina, including Czernowitz, was under Soviet rule, as a result of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. The deportation of the 3,500 people to Siberia was effected by the Soviets prior to the advancing Romanian/German occupation of Northern Bukovina.

  • Ștefan Cel Mare University of Suceava Field of Study: Geography The
    Ștefan cel Mare University of Suceava Field of study: Geography Habilitation thesis Abstract The practical - applied and scientific implications of the conducted climatic or interdisciplinary studies Dumitru MIHĂILĂ, PhD, Associate Professor Suceava, 2017 The habilitation thesis titled Practical - applied and scientific implications of the conducted climatic and interdisciplinary studies is structured in five parts (named chapters), which coherently present the evolution of the scientific and methodological-didactic activity of the candidate. Chapter I presents the Evolution of scientific activity between February 2003 - May 2017. This period was characterized by continuous search and challenges. The search has attempted to focus the research topic on certain directions, whereas the challenges have been related to the rapid pace in which the Romanian and international climatology has been developing. The scientific activity has directly depended on the informational, material and time resources available and on the developement context of the research activities carried out within the Department of Geography at Stefan cel Mare University of Suceava and in Romania. As far as information resources are concerned, I can say that they have always been hardly available. Here I firstly refer to meteorological data (diversified in format and content) that are the basis of climatological studies. It is undoubtedly known that climate studies should focus on data resulting from detailed meteorological observations (often hourly or sub-hourly) and spanning longer timeframes (often decades). They generally characterize vast territories. The climatic studies conducted were based on detailed, consistent meteorological data sets that were long enough to allow for robust conclusions to be drawn following processing and critical analysis.

  • Demographic Evolution of the Small Towns in the North-East Development Region in the Post-Communist Period
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Directory of Open Access Journals ROMANIAN REVIEW OF REGIONAL STUDIES, Volume VII, Number 2, 2011 DEMOGRAPHIC EVOLUTION OF THE SMALL TOWNS IN THE NORTH-EAST DEVELOPMENT REGION IN THE POST-COMMUNIST PERIOD GABRIEL CAMAR Ă1 ABSTRACT - Romania's population has declined steadily from 23.2 million in 1990 to 21.5 million inhabitants in 2007. This overall decline in population is not entirely true for the towns and cities of the North-East Region, as during the same period they recorded both decreases and increases in population due to positive natural balance. The North-East Region (partially superimposed over the historic region of the western Moldova) is considered the poorest region in the European Union and a disadvantaged area. The rural young population of Moldova is a reservoir which supplies urban areas and especially large cities. In these circumstances, the small towns of the North-East Region are seeking balance (demographic, economic, functional). This paper examines the demographic evolution of the small towns located in the area under analysis, in the post-communist period, illustrating the types of fluctuations in statistical methods as regards demographic changes and the risk of depopulation in the future, correlated with a lower overall population of Romania. Keywords : demographic evolution, small cities, post-communist, North-East Region INTRODUCTION The analysis of demographic trends is an important area for the adoption of appropriate policies to prevent depopulation. The North-East Region has a special status as the poorest European Union Development Region, the east central area of this region being a disadvantaged area (Iano ş et all., 2009), while registering a generally positive natural balance during 1990-2007.

The first event was a seminar entitled “From Ethnopolitical Conflict to Inter-Ethnic Accord in Moldova,” which took place from 12 to 17 September 1997 at Flensburg, Germany’s northernmost city and seat of ECMI, and at Bjerremark, Denmark—a former farm near the town of Tønder in Southern Jutland. Participants were diplomats, politicians, university professors and businessmen from the Transdniestrian and Gagauz parts of the Republic of Moldova as well as from the capital &KLÈLQsX (Kishinev in Russian). To facilitate the exchange of ideas and to revitalise the stalled negotiations between the parties to the conflict, experts in international law and diplomacy from the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), the Council of Europe, and the Foreign Ministries of Denmark and Germany were also invited.

All new vineyard plantings are created from planting of certified material of our own production or acquired in Italy, France and Germany. At the present stage, vineyard plantations in Moldova are 80% occupied by classic European varieties. The rest - are local indigenous varieties. All technological processes in primary winemaking are based on modern biotechnology achievements and innovations: enzymes for clarifying wort, yeast for fermentation and bacteria to reduce acidity in red wines. The well-known preservative - sulfur dioxide is replaced with inert gases (nitrogen, carbon dioxide) and the use of low temperatures. Table wines are exported mainly to Romania, the Czech Republic, Germany, Poland, China, the United States and Canada. All the achievements of viticulture and winemaking in Moldova are based on the latest scientific and technological progress, developed and implemented in the Republic of Moldova by scientists from the Academy of Sciences of Moldova, universities, as well as specialists from the National Office of Grapes and Wine.

  • Prof. Dr. Ruslan Grinberg Director of the Institute for International Economic and Political Studies (Russian Academy of Science, Moscow)
    Prof. Dr. Ruslan Grinberg Director of the Institute for International Economic and Political Studies (Russian Academy of Science, Moscow) Russia in the Post-Soviet Space: Search for Rational Behavior and Prospects of Economic Integration Introduction The development of relations between the CIS nations has been recurrently declared a priority of the Russian foreign policy. However, in terms of consolidation of the post-Soviet economic and political space the outcome of more than a decade of the CIS functioning could hardly be considered successful. After the dissolution of the political center of the former Soviet Union, the new independent states failed to keep alive the integrated economic complex created in the Soviet times. This turned to be a leading factor of degradation of the technologically most advanced industries and deep economic crisis that enveloped the whole area of the former Soviet Union. In addition, given the perceived risk of the Russia’s “empire ambitions” renaissance the new independent states strived for their sovereignty mostly through drifting away politically from their neighbor. Within this context both the process and outcome of transformation policy in Russia proved to be far from early expectations and as yet provide no ground to reckon it an example for the other post-Soviet nations. Finally, one should admit indifference of the Russian public state bodies shown to the development of the CIS integration in the 1990s. This serves an evidence of at least their misunderstanding the role and significance of integration for the prospects of the national economy and political stability in this region crucially important to Russia.
