       The process  of forming the pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic
                            and its implications

                                 Summary

       Since the secession  of Transnistria in 1990  and  creation of the
   independent Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic the legal status of the region
   has stil remained unclear and ambiguous. On one hand it has been a de facto
   state for more than 25 years, while on the other hand its separation has not
   been  commonly  recognized  by  the international community yet. As a
   consequence, Transnistria is stil formally treated as an autonomous region of
   a special status within the borders of the Republic of Moldova. The hereby
   paper is a certain starting phase of the research over the legal status of
   Transnistria and aims at deriving the genesis and evolution of its statehood.
   The subject of the work is the historical, formal and legal analysis of the
   process of forming an independent state, its development, as well as the
   implications and future perspectives, which might allow to make reliable
   conclusions concerning the region's legal status in the further research stages.
