DIMENSIUNEA NORMATIV-INSTITUȚIONALĂ A INTEGRĂRII INTELIGENȚEI ARTIFICIALE ÎN ECONOMIA CIRCULARĂ DIN REPUBLICA MOLDOVA
THE NORMATIVE-INSTITUTIONAL DIMENSION OF THE INTEGRATION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY IN THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA

Summary/Abstract: The integration of artificial intelligence into the circular economy is emerging today as a complex and multidimensional challenge for public administration, located at the intersection of regulation, innovation and sustainable governance. In the Republic of Moldova, this process is evolving within a regulatory and institutional framework that is still being established, in which efforts to align with European standards meet with tensions, generated by a still partially fragmented regulatory and institutional coherence. The article proposes an exploration of the normative-institutional dimension of the integration of artificial intelligence into the circular economy, focusing both on the existing degree of regulation and on the capacity of public administration to support the implementation of this strategic objective, as well as on how the principles of digitalization and circularity are reflected in administrative practice. The analysis highlights a clear conceptual assumption of digital transformations and the need for circularity, but also the persistence of regulatory gaps and incompletely articulated institutional mechanisms, which may limit the efficiency of implementation. In this framework, the need for a coherent, integrated and proactive approach is argued, aimed at strengthening both the regulatory framework and administrative capacity, so that artificial intelligence becomes a functional and strategic tool of circular economy policies, supporting the sustainable transformation of the public sector and promoting a more adaptable and innovative economic environment.
