HOW TO BUILD AN INTERNATIONAL VOLUME ON TRANSNISTRIAN ISSUE. LEARNED LESSONS

Summary/Abstract: In the spring of 2021, the Laboratory for the Analysis of the Transnistrian Conflict (Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu) and the Balkan History Association based in Bucharest launched a call under the project ”The Armed Conflict on the Dniester: Political and Social Implications for the Republic of Moldova”. Under the coordination of a team made up of researchers from Romania, the Republic of Moldova, the United States of America, and Germany, the project retained the chapters proposed by eight Western researchers and one from Tiraspol The learned lessons refer, on the one hand, to the weak capacity of some researchers from the Republic of Moldova to work in teams with foreign researchers, using Western citation systems and respecting the standards of objectivity and quality. On the other hand, we notice the difficulties of a coordination team that has to manage partisanship, visible through the subjective selection of sources and the use of political language instead of political analysis.
