Economy of Transnistria as an example of the functioning of a separatist economic area

Abstracts

EN

The aim of the article is a scientific trial of a description of the economy of the separatist Transnistrian region as part of the economic system of the Republic of Moldova and the region, generating income not only for representatives of the „authorities” in Tiraspol, but also for the political and business decision makers on the territory controlled by the government in Chisinau, Ukraine and Russian Federation. Explanation focuses on three areas of the Transnistrian economy: the market, smuggling and cryptocurrency mining. The challenge for the researcher is the availability of official documents and data. The analysis focuses on available statistical data and expert studies, as well as media coverage by Moldovan and foreign outlets, that refer to the market and non‑ market aspects of the Transnistrian and Moldovan economies. The information and opinions collected in the course of the research process allow for an attempt to assess the probability of further existence of the economic territory, not subject to the jurisdiction of the constitutional authorities of the Republic of Moldova, especially in the context of the war in Ukraine and the pro‑ European course of the government in Chisinau.

Celem artykułu jest naukowa próba opisania gospodarki separatystycznego Naddniestrza jako części systemu gospodarczego Republiki Mołdawii i regionu, przynoszącego przychody nie tylko przedstawicielom „władz” w Tyraspolu, ale również kręgom politycznym i biznesowym na obszarze kontrolowanym przez rząd w Kiszyniowie, na Ukrainie i w Federacji Rosyjskiej. Eksplanacja skupia się na trzech obszarach funkcjonowania naddniestrzańskiej ekonomii: aspekcie rynkowym, przemycie i wydobyciu kryptowalut. Wyzwaniem dla badacza jest dostępność oficjalnych dokumentów i danych. Analiza skupia się na dostępnych danych statystycznych i opracowaniach eksperckich, jak też na publikacjach mołdawskich i zagranicznych mediów, które odnosiły się do rynkowych i nierynkowych aspektów naddniestrzańskiej oraz mołdawskiej gospodarki. Zebrane w toku procesu badawczego informacje oraz opinie pozwalają podjąć próbę oceny prawdopodobieństwa dalszego trwania obszaru gospodarczego, nie podlegającego jurysdykcji konstytucyjnych władz Republiki Mołdawii, szczególnie w kontekście wojny na Ukrainie oraz proeuropejskiego kursu rządu w Kiszyniowie.
