  • Rural Tourism Development, a Prerequisite for the Preservation of Bulgarian Traditions
    1 www.esa-conference.ru Rural tourism development, a prerequisite for the preservation of Bulgarian traditions Teodora Rizova, Chief Assist. Ph. D in Social Sciences New Bulgarian University (Sofia, Bulgaria) The village is the place where agricultural production and related employment hold the most weight. It is the cradle of authentic traditions and cultural practices – they are “reserved” for preserving the experience of cultural, linguistic, and, in general – national identity. The village is not a mass tourist destination. It is an alternative to mass tourism and a place, as well as an environ- ment suitable for different forms of specialized tourism – ecological, mountain, adventure, theme tourism, related to cultural-historical heritage, religion, wine, traditions and local cuisine, ethnography, traditional music and crafts (Art. 28 of the Statute of BAAT). In agricultural and social policy of the European Union rural tourism is seen as a form of diversification of activi- ties and increase farmers' incomes.

It offers interesting opportunities for U.S. companies in many sectors, among them infrastructure development, IT and agriculture. Bulgaria boasts Europe’s lowest public deficit rates and it grew at a rate of 2% in the first quarter of 2015, despite last year’s collapse of its fourth largest bank (Corporate Commercial Bank). Bulgaria has the lowest tax rates in the region –a 10% rate both on personal income and corporate income – as well as a bilateral treaty that allows for the avoidance of double- taxation with the United States. The global financial crisis slowed investment growth, particularly in the real estate and manufacturing sectors, but as the European economy recovers, investment may pick up in certain sectors.

Panov, Ph.D. Dragi Georgiev, Ph.D. Krste Bitovski, Ph.D. Academician Ivan Katardziev Vanche Stojchev, Ph.D. Novica Veljanovski, Ph.D. Todor Chepreganov, Ph.D. 4 MACEDONIA IN THE PREHISTORIC TIME On the territory of Macedonia an active life is registered even in the earliest stages of the human prehistory. The climate, geomorphology, and other natural factors on the whole territory of Macedonia were pre- conditions for establishment of an organized life and for the creation of different cultures whose evolution had a continuous course from the pe- riod of the first agricultural communities to the end of the Iron Age. The archeological and anthropological researches of the artifacts from the first settlements in Macedonia are where the basic knowledge which is crucial for the explanation of the origin of the later populations as well as the ori- gin of the historical and cultural influences and movements came from. The territory of Macedonia is situated in the core of the Balkan’s natural crossroads and connects the two largest cultural spheres: the Ae- gean and the Anatolian, as the nuclei of the oldest farming and stock- breeding communities, or the inner part of the Balkan Peninsula and the Middle Europe. The natural routes along the river valleys have the partic- ular role from this aspect; the valley of the river Vardar, which joins the valley of the river Morava enables communication of the Aegean World and Panonia while Strumeshnica, through lower reaches of the river Struma makes a link between southern Thrace and the front part of the Middle Asia.
