It is characterised by a change of produc- tion relations based on public ownership of the means of production. In the transition, public (state and co-operative) ownership in Bulgaria has been replaced by private ownership. State assets have been privatized, passing into the hands of a small group of people. Society has split into rich and poor. The change of the economic foundation (material relations) has led to a change in the superstructure (ideological relations). All ele- ments of the superstructure, including political, legal, moral, philo- sophical and the corresponding ideological relations; the depart- ments and organizations − political (the state, the parties), legal (the judicial authorities), have undergone transformations and are still in a process of mutation. In the transition period the single state property was parceled out among a number of physical and legal persons. This has entailed a redistribution of political power among a number of subjects. By virtue of the principle of separation of powers, state power in this country was divided into legislative, executive and judicial (Art. 8 of the Constitution). Further down the line, the ruling parties continue to redistribute power among the government authorities depending on their temporary interest, by changes in the legislation. The transition in Bulgaria has had a number of positive impacts: more effective management of assets, greater economic ini- tiative, democratization of public and political life and greater per- sonal liberties. Alongside this, there have been some negative 14 THEORETICAL FUNDAMENTALS OF PENAL LAWMAKING aspects of the transition: weakening of public and legal control and proliferation of crime. 1. Crime is not a fixed or immutable phenomenon that has been the same in all times and for all peoples. It has been changing in the course of history. The substance and forms of crime ultimately depend on the social and economic context. However, it is partly up to the legislator to decide what acts to make illegal. The legislator makes the criminal statute by responding to the objective public needs, while also taking into account the interests of the ruling class. Historically, criminal law has for a long time been created empirically. Intuition

  • Organized Crime in Bulgaria: Markets and Trends
    ORGANIZED CRIME IN BULGARIA: MARKETS AND TRENDS ���������� ������������ ��������� The present report builds upon various studies published by the Center for the Study of Democracy throughout the last decade which have focused on specific aspects of organized crime in Bulgaria (contraband, the drug market, tax fraud, human trafficking, arms proliferation, etc.), the systemic spread of corruption, and the linkages between the two. The report presents the latest trends and manifestations (or “market niches”) of syndicate crime and its particularly damaging effects. It goes further to offer a historical review of the facts and available expertise in the area, and to draw conclusions about the origin, characteristics and developmental features of organized criminality in Bulgaria in the context of the transition to democracy. This report attempts to present an authentic picture of organized crime in Bulgaria, by identifying its constitu- ent features and major trends. The research team has used information from all available sources, analyzing it through several, complementary methods. Collecting empirical data about clandestine and hidden markets is a hard task, which can sometimes put the researchers at risk. However, it cannot be dispensed with, particularly as the so called objective data (police and judicial crime statistics) provided by public bodies is often incomplete and sometimes manipulated. This paper also furthers expertise exchange through a public-private partnership. This publication has been produced with the financial assistance of the European Union. Its contents are the sole responsibility of the Center for the Study of Deocracy and can under no circumstances be regarded as reflecting the position of the European Union.
