We can often hear the word “incomparable”. It is quite often heard that Moldova’s economy “cannot be compared” with the big economies of the world; the supposition is that it can only be compared with the economies belonging to the same size category, like the former soviet republics of the Central Asia, Baltic States, etc. The author of the paper claims that it might be irrelevant to compare Moldova’s economy with the big economies of the world in terms of what has already been achieved in the real economy so far; however, comparing its education economy with any country of the world, in terms of how economics of education has been applied as a scientific background used to build-up skills as well as analysing the outcomes of the added value in education, seems to be a must. The actions undertaken in education by big economies constitute a sound basis for learning and/or eventually imitating, should the teaching staff will to really assume the role of supporting the Moldovan government carry out its mandate in an accountable manner. The role of the academic class in the context of this issue is a key one. The same refers to the role of teachers in the national economy particularly because educating economists and other kinds of specialists who lack an awareness of the intangible economy as well as attitudinal skills is quite under-productive and hampers Moldova's sound development. Only the availability of a sound, resilient Moldovan School of Economic Thought can spill over in a sound, resilient Moldovan economy. Any attempts to look for “alternative approaches” are far too risky and counterproductive. New requirements are imposed by the newly emerging intangible economy, with regard to the labour force quality and new criteria need to be met in order for a country to adjust to international economic disequilibria.
