  • Triangle Razgrad - Shumen - Targovishte - Balanced Structure Between Urban Centers Rousse and Varna
    rd Editors: Recep Efe, Ibrahim Atalay, Isa Cürebal 3 International Geography Symposium - GEOMED 2013 Triangle Razgrad - Shumen - Targovishte - Balanced Structure Between Urban Centers Rousse and Varna MARIA V. SHISHMANOVA South West University “Neofit Rilski”, Blagoevgrad - Bulgaria [email protected] Abstract Regional centers Razgrad, Targoviste, Shumen form a local "triangle" of the urban development axis between Varna and Ruse. It is necessary to have in view that the transport direction Targoviste-Shumen-Varna connecting the Danube development axis (Eurocorridor № 7) with the Black Sea one is represented as a main axis of urban development with future potentials. Moreover, the "triangle" lies on duplicate urbanization axis international transport corridor № 9. The municipality of Shumen could receive and would take advantage of economic impacts of Varna as this town is one of the three international/national important centers in the country. The location of the "triangle" Razgrad-Shumen-Targoviste gives a chance for synergy and in better coordination of the socio-economic development can overcome their current not-so- good condition. They could develop complementary activities and create a strong cluster of production, innovations and attract foreign investments; they could create even compatible high- tech industrial sector using specific local resources. Thus the three municipalities will have possibilities to overcome the high unemployment in these areas and to be promoted as a counterweight to the two strong centers of growth Ruse and Varna. Keywords: Regional centers, socio-economic development, center – periphery, types of municipalities, local models of development Introduction Research on socio-economic and regional development in Bulgaria is an important task for the country because as an equal member of the European Union it must meet all the requirements and signed documents in this field.

  • Do Public Fund Windfalls Increase Corruption? Evidence from a Natural Disaster Elena Nikolovaa Nikolay Marinovb 68131 Mannheim A5-6, Germany October 5, 2016
    Do Public Fund Windfalls Increase Corruption? Evidence from a Natural Disaster Elena Nikolovaa Nikolay Marinovb 68131 Mannheim A5-6, Germany October 5, 2016 Abstract We show that unexpected financial windfalls increase corruption in local govern- ment. Our analysis uses a new data set on flood-related transfers, and the associated spending infringements, which the Bulgarian central government distributed to mu- nicipalities following torrential rains in 2004 and 2005. Using information from the publicly available audit reports we are able to build a unique objective index of cor- ruption. We exploit the quasi-random nature of the rainfall shock (conditional on controls for ground flood risk) to isolate exogenous variation in the amount of funds received by each municipality. Our results imply that a 10 % increase in the per capita amount of disbursed funds leads to a 9.8% increase in corruption. We also present suggestive evidence that more corrupt mayors anticipated punishment by voters and dropped out of the next election race. Our results highlight the governance pitfalls of non-tax transfers, such as disaster relief or assistance from international organizations, even in moderately strong democracies. Keywords: corruption, natural disasters, governance JEL codes: D73, H71, P26 aResearch Fellow, Central European Labour Studies Institute, Slovakia and associated researcher, IOS Regensburg, Germany.

The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units.
