Summary/Abstract: Regardless of the recent speculated views on the interest of the governments of the two countries situated on the right and the left of the Prut river and in spite of the Romanians’ declared or not solidarity, whose fates were separated conjecturally, we can not ignore the umbilical link between the two states whose citizens have benefited from reforming ideas translated into projects with a real constitutional value and subsequently into fundamental judicial acts adopted in 1866 and 1923. The paper presents the common constitutional evolution as well as the analysis of the two fundamental legal acts in force in Romania and the Republic of Moldova. The steps of the analysis are twofold: the former illustrates, formally, the weight of the texts considered relevant to the various components of the economic and social life of the peoples of the two countries, and the latter, illustrates, from the conceptual point of view, the measure of the differences between the articles. This paper is part of some extensive personal research, which concluded with the author’s doctoral thesis “Democracy in the Romanian constitutional theory and practice during 1866 – 2003”. Because the topic is really important nowadays, we have found it necessary to continue our research with more attention, reassessing certain ideas and comments.
