Summary: | Currently, there is no country with its entire population to be homogenous by the criteria of race, color, ethnicity, language, culture, religion. The rights on the people who belong to some minorities begin, of course, with equality of rights and nondiscrimination continuing with the right to ethnic, linguistic, cultural and religious identity; these people enjoy all rights and fundamental human freedoms, just like any other person. The present study highlights certain aspects of the controversies that have been ongoing for years in regards to the name of the mother tongue of the native population of the Republic of Moldova but also about the followed linguistic policies. Taking into account the actuality of the issue we come with some historical and juridical arguments that, in our opinion, would allow the citizens to fully understand the scientifi c truth concerning the correct name of the state language of the Republic of Moldova. |
