  • Normalisation of Islam in Bulgaria and the Role of Intellectuals
    Islam on Тrial: Normalisation of Islam in Bulgaria and the role of intellectuals by Madlen Ivanova Nikolova Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisors: Professor Alexandra Kowalski Professor Jean-Louis Fabiani CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2016 Abstract The purpose of the thesis is to analyse the symbolic violence intellectuals exert in constructing politically effective representations of Islam in Bulgaria. This is done through the close investigation of expert witnesses’ discourse in a recent trial against thirteen Muslims from Bulgaria, who were accused and convicted of propagating a “foreign” and “political-ideological” Islam against the “democratic-liberal order.” The expert witnesses opposed this “political” and “foreign” Islam to “traditional” and “everyday” Islam. I argue that this discursive strategy could be read as normalisation in Foucauldian terms. In contrast to Foucault’s understanding of normalisation and the role of psychiatric expertise within the juridical field, what is normalised in the case of the trial I studied are not individual pathologies, but forms of (“everyday”) Islam that are compatible with the current post-political liberal regime. I also consider intellectuals’ conflicting relationships to the trial by taking into account their positioning within the field of power. CEU eTD Collection I Acknowledgements I would like to extend my gratitude to Professor Alexandra Kowalski for the thought- provoking conversations, constructive critique and support throughout the year. Professor Jean-Louis Fabiani’s classes helped me develop a more nuanced account of the dynamics within the academic field.

NIKOLOVA Tobacco and Tobacco Products Institute, BG - 4108 Plovdiv, Bulgaria Abstract NIKOLOVA, V., 2006. Technological investigation on quality and possibilities for wid- ening the production of market demanded oriental type tobaccos. Message I: Techno- logical investigation on Djebel K 81. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 12: 645-653 At new conditions, the tobacco sector should completely be subjected to market demands, as regards its volume and its structure. As far as our country is concerned, this means market adaptation of the variety structure of tobaccos grown in the different regions. In this study a technological investigation of the variety of Djebel K 81 has been done, which is grown in the different sub-regions and regions of the origins of "Eastern Balkan" and "Nevrokop", as com- pared to the mass varieties for these origins. The routine indices for quality specification have been used: the chemical composition of tobacco and tobacco smoke; the spectral curves of tobacco water extraction (Taking of the "image"); the expert and smoking evaluation. In order to prove the authenticity of the results, the data have been processed by using the variation and statistical method. On the basis of the complex evaluation, grading of tobaccos investigated has been done in regions and sub-regions for their origins. It has been established that it will be purposeful to grow the investigated variety of Djebel K 81 in the region of Yambol (the origin of "Eastern Balkan"), and also in the region of Nevrokop (the origin of "Nevrokop" - the sub-region of Yaka), when market demand is greater.

Its condition is an indicator of whether local ecosystems are developing sustainably or are in a degradation phase. The purpose of the present study is to analyze the vegetation cover dynamics within the small bulgarian municipality of Satovcha (41°72'-41°75' N; 23°89'-24°11' E) in the last one year. For this purpose, based on the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), the territory of the study area is classified according to the quantity of vegetation cover. Four vegetation classes are separated – sparse, light, medium and heavy one. The study include data from 2 satellite imagery obtained from Landsat 8 missions for the period of time July 1, 2018 - July 4, 2019. The results obtained in the course of the study show negative changes in the vegetation cover, which affect the ancient forests located on the territory of the municipality.

Biodiversity Data Journal 4: e8135. doi: 10.389 7/BDJ.4.e8135 Abstract Background The knowledge of the ground-beetle fauna of Strandzha is currently incomplete, and is largely based on data from the Bulgarian part of the region and on records resulting from casual collecting. This study represents a critical revision of the available literature, museum collections and a three years field study of the carabid beetles of the Bulgarian and Turkish parts of Strandzha Mountain and the adjacent Black Sea Coast territories. New information A total of 328 species and subspecies of Carabidae, belonging to 327 species from the region of Strandzha Mountain and adjacent seacoast area, have been listed. Of these, 77 taxa represent new records for the Bulgarian part of the region, and 110 taxa new records for Turkish part of the studied region. © Kostova R, Guéorguiev B.

  • Records of Oedemeridae (Insecta: Coleoptera) Species from Strandzha Mountain (Bulgaria and Turkey)
    ZooNotes 32: 1-5 (2012) …32… www.zoonotes.bio.uni-plovdiv.bg ISSN 1313-9916 Records of Oedemeridae (Insecta: Coleoptera) species from Strandzha Mountain (Bulgaria and Turkey) OGNYAN SIVILOV Department of Zoology and Anthropology, Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridski", Faculty of Biology, 8 Dragan Tsankov Blvd., 1164 Sofia, Bulgaria, [email protected] Abstract. A list of 16 species from 5 genera of the family Oedemeridae and their localities in Strandzha Mountain was presented, five from which were reported for the first time to this mountain. Key words: Oedemeridae, Strandzha Mountain, faunistic list. Introduction Oedemeridae is a small family group of beetles with only 110 species and subspecies listed in Europe (Švihla 2008). The species of this region are largely known and not many new species are expected – only 4 new species are described from Europe after the World War II (Švihla 2006a, 2006b). However, the actual distribution of many species are still poorly known and needs of additions and corrections are obvious. This faunistic study is a part of a three-year field research of Strandzha Mountain on various groups of invertebrates. Strandzha Mountain (in Turkish: Yıldız/Istranca) is located in the border areas of Southeastern Bulgaria and Northwestern Turkey near the west coast of the Black Sea. It is mostly covered by relatively low altitude and mostly humid deciduous forests, and some dry ericoid formations and coastal habitats near the sea. There are no any publications with exactly pointed localities of species of the family Oedemeridae regarding the area studied. Vázquez (2002) presented distribution maps of the European species showing a presence of 21 species in the Strandzha Mountain.
