Summary/Abstract: This article analyses the European road of the Republic of Moldova trough the development policies of Romania and the European Union. In order to analyze the Europeanization process in Moldova, we are going to use a comparative approach. Romania’s bilateral development policies sustain the Europeanization of the Republic of Moldova as much as the multilateral European Union policies do. Nevertheless, we identified a difference of perspective between the two actors. The core of our argument is provisionally anticipated by the common history of Romania and Moldova that suggests how the relationships between external boundary and internal structuring can be used in order to explain the national preferences of bilateral development policies. This article explores the difference of perspective between the EU and its Member-State by describing structural profiles for individual choices showing how much can be gained by bringing together two similar, but different perspectives of development.
