Item Cross-cooperation sectors between the Republic Macedonia and the Republic of Moldova: comparative analysis(2018) Trendov, Nikola; Stratan, Alexandru; Stratan, Dumitru; Perciun, Rodica; Tirigan, SergiuThis research aims to asses the rural development perspectives and strategic sectors in Republic Macedonia and Republic of Moldova that can be considered cooperation sectors between the countries. Also, the research will serve as a handbook map for new created and existing LAGs or associative groups aiming to cooperate with other regional partners. A Local Action Group is a non profit-making structure formed of public and private organizations, especially from rural villages, from different socio-economic sectors. Through the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), LAGs can apply for financial assistance in the form of grants to implement the Local Development Strategy of their respective territory. Agriculture is important segment of Macedonian economy, as it impacts the economy significantly, by contributing with around 11.4% in total Gross Value Added (GVA). In addition to this, the agricultural sector is important for reducing unemployment rates and it provides employment for about 17.9% of the population. In the Republic of Moldova, agriculture continue to remain an important sector of economy. Even if declining, it is accounting for 12,2% of GDP in the year 2017. Food Industry accounts for more than 30% of the manufacturing, and it is contributing to other sectors such as transport, trade, financial and insurance activity. Main characteristic of the Macedonian and Moldavian agriculture is its dual structure. This means that small farms are most common and dominating the sector. Almost of the holding operate on land less than one hectare. However, these is high level of land fragmentation. In both countries, agricultural policy development is constructed as an adjustment towards the Common Agricultural Policy of the European Union. The process of EU integration resulted with positive changes in terms of better institutional capacities and legislation. Main goals of the national agricultural policies are the CAP objective and at the time this is the national agricultural strategies. In order to achieve these objectives, there has been introduced increased budget, along with systemic establishment of policy through set of laws, strategies, programs and long-term plans.Item Country report: Republic of Moldova(2015) Moroz, Victor; Stratan, Alexandru; Ignat, Anatolie; Lucasenco, EugeniaCOUNTRY REPORT: REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA This project has received funding from the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme for Research, Technological Development and Demonstration under grant agreement no 612755Item Development and side effects of remittances in the CIS countries : the case of Republic of Moldova(European University Institute, 2013) Stratan, Alexandru; Chistruga, Marcel; Clipa, Victoria; Fala, Alexandru; Septelici, VioricaMigration is a longstanding phenomenon. However, the impact of remittances on the countries of origins, makes migration a topic of special interest for many researchers. In the Republic of Moldova remittances have become a much discussed and much analyzed subject, Moldova ranking among the economies with the highest share of remittances in terms of GDP. What is more, remittances, unlike FDI, external trade and other sources of income, seem to have a significant impact on economic growth. Within the present work an attempt has been made to capture the positive and negative spillovers that migrants’ remittances have on a country’s socio-economic development. The study summarises previous findings and data sources related to remittances and their influence on the economy. Moreover, authors investigate the link between remittances and economic growth, investments, inflation, employment, human capital and poverty. The study combines the theoretical background with an analysis of the real trends and fluctuations in the Moldovan economy.Item Integration and reintegration in CARIM-East countries(European University Institute, 2013) Stratan, Alexandru; Savelieva, Galina; Cotelnic, Vera; Zaharov, SvetlanaPolicy in the field of migrants’ integration is a relatively new task for practically all CARIM-East countries. Integration has an impact upon demography, including the composition and structure of the country’s population, namely gender ratio, mortality, marriage structure, birth rate, ageing etc. While integrating into society migrants become a part of the same, which affects the demographic security of the recipient country. As was noted above, integration is a twofold process, i.e. it is linked both to the adaptation of migrants and the adaptation of the recipient society . If one takes Russia as an example of a recipient country, then, in the first half of the 1990s, its actions were primarily directed towards assistance to refugees and forced migrants from the former USSR republics, most of whom were ethnic Russians in need of economic, social and household integration: assistance in getting housing, jobs, and legal status. In the late 1990s and the early 2000s the situation changed: forced migration gradually gave way to large-scale labor migration from practically all CIS countries and this, of course, required a drastic change in policy. The absence of migrants’ integration policy increases their social exclusion and segregation. This absence make them vulnerable to different forms of rights violations, labor and other types of exploitation, even extreme forms of violence, such as forced labor and human trafficking: all of these, it should be noted, are to be found in CARIM-East countries.Item Проблемы интеграции и реинтеграции в странах КАРИМ – Восток(Европейский университетский институт, 2013) Стратан, Александру; Савельева, Галина; Котельник, Вера; Захарова, СветланаПолитика в области интеграции мигрантов – сравнительно новая область деятельности практически для всех стран, входящих в КАРИМ-Восток. Интеграционные процессы оказывают влияние на демографические процессы, в том числе на национальный состав и структуру населения, в том числе возрастную структуру населения, процессы смертности, на брачную структуру, процессы рождаемости, процессы старения населения. Мигранты, интегрируясь в общество, становятся его частью, что оказывает влияние на демографическую безопасность страны-реципиента. Как уже отмечалось ранее, процесс интеграции является двойственным, то есть связан как с адаптацией самих мигрантов, так и с адаптацией принимающего общества. Если рассматривать процесс интеграции на примере России, как основной страны реципиента, то в первой половине 1990-х годов ее действия были направлены, в основном, на обустройство беженцев и вынужденных переселенцев из бывших республик СССР, большинство которых были этнические русские, которые нуждались в экономической и социально-бытовой интеграции (помощи в получении жилья, работы, правового статуса). В конце 1990-х – начале 2000-х годов ситуация в данной области изменилась: вынужденная миграция постепенно сменилась масштабной трудовой миграцией практически из всех стран СНГ, что естественно, потребовало коренного изменения политик в данной области. Отсутствие политики по интеграции мигрантов приводит к усилению их социальной исключенности и сегрегации, делает их уязвимыми перед различными формами нарушений прав, трудовой и иной эксплуатации, вплоть до крайних форм насилия в виде рабства, принудительного труда и торговли людьми, проявление которых имеют место в странах КАРИМ-Восток.
