“…During the last decades, migration was the main reason for the population decline in Moldova, ultimately affecting other demographic phenomena. Consequently, outmigration caused an exodus of the labour force and depopulation, especially in rural areas, contributing to a population structure deterioration and accelerating the ageing process (Gagauz et al, 2023;Crivenco & von Löwis, 2022).…”

Estimating international migration is a challenging exercise despite the information technologies used, regular censuses conducted, and available advanced administrative systems in collecting data on vital events. Recent works estimated the stocks and flows of Moldovan migrants mainly by using national administrative sources on population counts and data from the population censuses in the destination countries. This study aims to assess the stock of Moldovan migrants of the 1980–1995 birth cohorts, for which a longitudinal method was applied. Thus, were compared de facto population of the corresponding generations to their initial size (number of births), adjusting by survival rate. The results of the study show the existing stock of Moldovan migrants of the 1980–1995 year of birth and the impact of outmigration on the changes in the size of the corresponding cohorts as of 2016 and its trend until 2022. During the analysed period was emphasised a plateau in the migrants’ stock of the generations born in the early 1980s with a moderate return migration in the 2020–2022 period. On the other hand, the cohorts of the late 1980s and 1990s registered a significant increase in the number of migrants, which corresponds with the period of the entrance in high migration mobility ages. The study covers the entire territory of Moldova, including the left bank of the Nistru River and Bender municipality. The methodological part provides a complete description of the method applied, which might be further considered for estimating the migrants’ flows and stocks by using vital statistics or population census data.

Difficulties arising from the realization of the right to access to education outside a territory with a disputed regime by individuals who obtained previous qualifications in such territory have existed for a long time. The issue was exacerbated after the Ukrainian political crisis of 2014 that led to the emergence of two self-proclaimed entities — the Donetsk People’s Republic and the Luhansk People’s Republic — and posed the question on the further destiny of young people who finished secondary schools in these territories. Although eventually many of them were admitted to Russian universities, it did not resolve the issue fundamentally. Therefore, the authors have set themselves a goal to answer the following question: is it in compliance with international law if a state body, a state agency, or a state educational institution refuses to recognize the qualification on the sole ground that it was obtained in a territory with a disputed regime? While the answer should be negative, it seems that most states do not share this opinion. The possible solution to this and other issues concerning the implementation of the rights of people living in such territories is to conclude the treaty that will guarantee the implementation of all basic human rights that people have under international law including the right to access to education. However, before its conclusion, it is expedient to set a Martens clauselike norm in an international instrument that may contribute to full and consistent implementation of their rights since they do require such protection today.

The relevance of this study stems from the fact that since the beginning of the 21st century, the European Union has become more actively involved in conflict prevention and peacekeeping in hot spots of the world; this is, in particular, determined by a wide range of instruments and mechanisms of the security system of the EU states, which, however, has its shortcomings and obsolete structural elements. The purpose of this study is to provide a brief analysis on the emergence and dynamics of the most significant armed conflicts and wars of the 21st century; to qualitatively and quantitatively characterise the degree of participation of European states in conflict resolution; to outline the main issues in conflict resolution at the level of the European Union; and to identify ways to improve coordination of actions in the area of maintaining peace and stability in the world with the participation of the European community states. The main scientific method used in writing this paper is the method of political and sociological research, which helped to identify the main hotspots on the geopolitical map of the world in the twenty-first century, to establish and characterise the level of influence and involvement of the European continent in modern military conflicts, and to define the main difficulties faced by European countries in preventing and resolving armed conflicts. The main results obtained from the study are as follows: identification of active centres of conflict and armed confrontation in the world; characterisation of the level of involvement and activities of the European Union in resolving military conflicts; emphasis on the basic problems of European countries in conflict resolution; and proposals for improving the pan-European system of conflict prevention and resolution in the world. The findings and conclusions of the study can be used as a basis for further research on this topic, including in areas that have a common basis with this topic; in the sphere of international relations – as a basis for choosing a scheme for resolving certain armed conflicts in the region; in historical sciences – as part of a course on the history of the outbreak and development of conflicts and wars in Europe and the world in the 21st century; in higher education, in particular, for the specialities of political science, conflict studies, basics of diplomacy, where certain factors, characteristics, signs and events identified in the study serve as a tool for research
