Occasional Papers in Romanian Studies No.3 Moldova, Bessarabia, Transnistria (SSEES Occasional Papers No. 52. ISBN 0903425-63-7) is the product of a conference held at SSEES-UCL in 1999 on the history and contemporary affairs of Moldova and Transnistria. The articles published here deal primarily with the as yet unresolved conflict between the Republic of Moldova, the break-away region of Transnistria and Russia, as well as with the problems of Moldova's transition to a market-economy. Also included is a discussion, based on newly-researched archival material, of the Holocaust in war-time Transnistria. The volume has a comprehensive introduction, surveying the history of Moldova from the earliest times to the twentieth century: the first of its kind in English, and includes a history of Bessarabia under Russian and Romanian rule.
