Summary/Abstract: Because of its position at the borders of the European Union and the Russian Federation, the Republic of Moldavia continues to be a focal point of interest for all international relations scholars. The aim of this study is to provide an integrated security analysis on Moldavia, on the model proposed by Barry Buzan and the Copenhagen School of International Relations. Therefore, we will not only address the military dimension of security, but also the political, economic, societal and environmental sectors, in the attempt to discover whether the issues which have currently found their place on the public agenda as security issues deserve to be there, or whether we are witnessing at least in certain areas a phenomenon of over-securitization or misplaced securitization.
