  • Archaeological Excavations and Research XLVI) ISSN 0205-07-22 (Print)
    D. Vladimirova-Aladzova. Serdika 6th - 7th century. Coin circulation, weights, seals. (Archaeological excavations and Research XLVI) ISSN 0205-07-22 (print). Sofia. The monograph includes an analysis of the coins, weights (exagii) and seals found during archeological excavations in Serdica over the last 20 years. These artifacts have a direct bearing on trade and economic relations in Serdica, revealing the connection between the city and the central government in Byzantium. Some of the studied artifacts are unknown until now in science, and the problems posed a challenge for any specialist. Despite the huge amount of information about Serdica and the large number of scientific studies dedicated to the city, so far the problems of the transition from the late antique to the medieval city and the changes that took place in the 6th - 7th century have not been developed. According to archaeologists, information about this period is difficult to establish due to the destruction of buildings from the period of later Ottoman and modern buildings. Against the background of the limited and not always chronologically reliable data from the terrain, the study includes reasonably dated monuments of importance for the history of the city during this period. The study is the first experience in the scientific literature, which analyzes the coinage, weights and seals of the 6th - 7th century in Serdica. These artifacts illuminate, supplement, and in some cases correct, the hitherto known historical and archaeological information about the city during the period of 6th – 7th centuries. D.

  • Bulgaria 01 2019-20 Better Governance, Better Economies
    TRANSITION REPORT COUNTRY ASSESSMENTS: BULGARIA 01 2019-20 BETTER GOVERNANCE, BETTER ECONOMIES Highlights BULGARIA • Growth has remained solid during 2019. The economy grew by an estimated 3.1 per cent in 2018, following an average growth rate of 3.8 per cent in 2015-17. The economy grew robustly at 4.2 per cent year-on-year in the first half of 2019. • Reforms in the energy sector have continued. Bulgaria is also developing a number of gas infrastructure projects, with the aim of becoming a major gas hub and transit route in the region. • Steps have been taken to advance Bulgaria’s integration into the financial architecture of the European Union (EU). Bulgaria is aiming to join the eurozone and has officially announced its intention to join the European Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM II) and the EU’s banking union simultaneously. Key priorities for 2020 • Reforms needed to prepare the country for joining ERM II and the EU’s banking union should be stepped up. While Bulgaria consistently meets the macroeconomic requirements to become part of ERM II, the authorities should remain committed to key structural reforms needed to achieve this goal. • Bulgaria should continue working on implementation of the commitments within the framework of the EU’s Cooperation and Verification Mechanism (CVM). According to the latest CVM report, the European Commission considers that the progress made by Bulgaria under the mechanism is sufficient to meet the country’s commitments made at the time of its accession to the EU. • Reforms on improving the business environment need to be implemented.
