The purpose is to help enable efforts to restore and preserve the properties. The Commission also seeks assurances from the governments of the region regarding the protection and preservation of these cultural heritage properties and encourages their restoration and maintenance. The Commission strives to especially recognize endangered sites and monuments of groups who have suffered suppression of their cultural heritage due to ethnicity or religion. This report identifies and discusses sites and monuments associated with Protestant heritage in Bulgaria. The Protestant community is one of the country’s largest minorities. It reports on a selection of important and representative churches. The Governments of the United States and Bulgaria entered into a Commission-negotiated agreement regarding the protection and preservation of places of worship, historic sites, cemeteries, and memorials in 2002. The agreement covers sites identified in this report. I hope that this report will enable Americans who trace their roots to Bulgaria to connect with their cultural heritage. Lesley Weiss Chair Acknowledgements Work on the survey that is the subject of this report was carried out in two main phases. During 2003, Professors Mark Stefanovich and Evelina Kelbetcheva collected historical information, which has been adapted to become the introductory section of this report. During 2004 and 2005, Stephen Lewis carried out research, site visits, descriptions, and extensive photography of 100 selected cultural and religious sites. Mr. Lewis relied on many others for information about the location, history, and condition of these and other sites, including Congregationalist Pastor Daniel Ignatov (Sofia); Methodist General Intendant and Pastor Bedros Altunian (Varna); Methodist Pastor Vladimir Todorov (Sofia); Baptist Pastor Theodore Oprenov (Sofia); and the Adventists’ Bulgaria Central Office staff in Sofia. The survey was organized and overseen by Samuel Gruber, who did the initial edit of this report. Justin Rhea of the Jewish Heritage Research Center, which he heads, assisted him. Jeffrey L. Farrow, Katarina A. Krzysztofiak, and Sarah Roosa also assisted with the survey and the preparation and publication of this report. Then Commission Chairman Warren L. Miller and Commission Members Ned W. Bandler and Michael Levy were particularly supportive of the project. The Commission also thanks former Ambassador James W. Pardew and the staff of the United States Embassy in Sofia for their assistance. Front cover photo: Methodist Church in Russe, built in 1883. Also known as the Evangelical Methodist Episcopal Church.

Milen Penerliev 1 Alternative tourism is a form of tourism which represents an alternative to the conventional mass tourism. Its forms are small-scale, low-density, divided into forms practiced in urban (religious, cultural, business) and rural areas. Alternative tourism is an attempt to preserve, protect and improve the quality of the existing resource base, which is fundamental for tourism itself. Alternative tourism is featured by active encouragement and care for the development of additional andspecific attractions as well the infrastructure, which are based on the local resources, while at the same time aiding the latter. It has an impact on the quality of life in the region, improves the infrastructure and increases the educational and cultural level of the local community.

  • 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.
