    Repere metodologice privind evaluarea gradului de asigurare a bunăstării economice: abordări internaționale și provocări pentru Republica Moldova [Articol]
    (CEP USM, 2025) Hămuraru, Maria; Buzdugan, Adriana
    The objective of this paper is to examine international methodological approaches for evaluating economic well-being and to assess their relevance for the Republic of Moldova. The study focuses on multidimensional frameworks, such as the Better Life Index and the Social Progress Index, and analyzes the challenges of adapting these models to a national context shaped by economic transition and high levels of migration. The research methodology involves a comparative analysis of composite well-being indicators and a review of available national data sources. Based on this analysis, the paper proposes an adapted framework structured around five key dimensions: income, employment, housing conditions, access to public services, and subjective well-being. The main findings highlight discrepancies between international standards and national statistical capacities but also demonstrate the feasibility of developing a credible and context-sensitive well-being index. The study concludes that integrating well-being metrics into policymaking processes can enhance evidence-based governance and improve the alignment of public policies with citizens’ real needs.

    Digitalizarea – factor cheie al dezvoltării economice competitive. Studiu de caz: România [Articol]
    (CEP USM, 2025) Drăgoi, Andreea-Emanuela; Calanter, Paul; Neagu, Cornelia
    Given current technological developments, economic competitiveness fundamentally relies on digitalisation, which represents a key factor in the process of industrial development. Against this background, the EU has adopted policies to support the digitalisation of industry across the entire internal market, encouraging Member States to develop national digital strategies. This paper aims to assess Romania’s progress in this area through a comparative analysis with other Central and Eastern European countries. The analysis draws on the Digital Economy and Society Index reports published by the European Commission, which serve as a key instrument for monitoring the digital advancement of EU Member States. The main finding of our research is that, despite notable progress since joining the EU, Romania must continue to invest substantially in digital skills and IT infrastructure in order to maintain its upward trajectory.

    Cartographie du paysage intellectuel de la science et de la paix: une analyse scientométrique utilisant l’algorithme de Kamada-Kawai et les données d’openalex [Articol]
    (CEP USM, 2025) Ciobanu, Mihail
    This paper analyzes the conceptual relationship between science and peace through a scientometric analysis based on data obtained from OpenAlex. Using the VOSviewer software and the Kamada-Kawai algorithm, a semantic map was created to visualize the most frequently co-occurring terms associated with «science» and «peace» in the global scientific literature. The results identify five main thematic clusters: applied technology, disarmament and security, post-conflict justice, philosophical reflection, and scientific methodology. This study highlights the deeply interdisciplinary nature of this field of research, which connects the exact sciences with the social and human sciences, including ethics, education, and spirituality. The second contribution of this work lies in a better understanding of the interconnected nature of the concepts of science and peace, as well as in emphasizing the potential of bibliometric visualizations as a strategic toolkit for research planning and evaluation.

    Logistica verde între sustenabilitate și eficiență economică: analiza comparativă a impactului digitalizării și costurilor în lanțurile de aprovizionare [Articol]
    (CEP USM, 2025) Carp, Elena
    In the context of growing pressure for sustainability and economic efficiency, green logistics plays a vital role in the restructuring of supply chains across Eastern Europe. This study explores how the digitalization of logistics processes contributes to achieving environmental goals while optimizing operational costs. Through a comparative analysis based on secondary sources, the research examines the strategies adopted by various actors in the region, highlighting significant differences in the level of technological integration and responsiveness to sustainability requirements.The methodology combines quantitative data on costs and carbon emissions with qualitative insights related to infrastructure, digital tools, and green transition strategies. The findings indicate that digitalization can serve as a catalyst for improving economic performance without undermining environmental commitments. The study concludes that successful implementation of green logistics depends on context-specific approaches, gradual investment, institutional collaboration, and the internal capacity development of logistics companies.

    Sustainable tourism and post-Covid economic security policies [Articol]
    (CEP USM, 2025) Bulat, Veronica
    Pandemia de COVID-19 a condus turismul european, în special în țările din Sud precum Italia, Spania, Grecia, Portugalia și Croația, într-o criză profundă. Acest articol oferă o analiză comparativă a politicilor turistice post-pandemice adoptate atât la nivelul Uniunii Europene, cât și la nivel național, concentrându-se pe rolul acestora în consolidarea sustenabilității sectorului și a securității economice. Scopul principal este de a examina modul în care diversele politici și mecanisme financiare au sprijinit reziliența, modernizarea și redresarea incluzivă. Metodologia comparativă, care îmbină analiza politicilor și revizuirea legislativă cu date oficiale și studii de caz specifice, indică faptul că UE a oferit o direcție strategică de finanțare, în special prin instrumente precum Mecanismul de Redresare și Reziliență. În același timp, statele membre au implementat reforme complementare, de la actualizări legislative la restructurări guvernamentale complexe. Fiecare țară și-a adaptat abordarea: Spania a investit masiv în digitalizare, Portugalia a prioritizat dezvoltarea forței de muncă, Italia s-a concentrat pe consolidarea IMM-urilor, Grecia a îmbunătățit guvernanța destinațiilor, iar Croația a implementat reforme legislative structurale. În ciuda acestor strategii naționale distincte, eforturile lor au condus spre obiective comune: promovarea tranziției verzi și digitale, creșterea incluzivă și asigurarea securității economice pe termen lung a sectorului turistic.
