The mission of the authorities is achieved through public policies which represent a set of measures taken by them aimed at improving the living conditions of citizens or setting measures to stimulate economic growth. The effectiveness of public policies is assessed by the results of the measures applied, the type of these measures and the results perceived by the beneficiaries. Regrettably, as a result of the reforms that took place in the last three decades, today we find that in the Republic of Moldova there is an enormous gap in the level of well-being of the citizens and a profoundly inequitable economic social system. Today, there is still a misconception among state dignitaries, including those involved in public policy making, that equity is the same as equality, although they are different. Namely in the light of the equity concept, there will be analyzed some public policies in the economic and social fields.
