This project has been implemented following a relevant agreement signed between the ILO and the Commission of the European Communities (Reference number of the Agreement: N° 30VS/2008/0506 – S12.513535). 2 CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION The main aim of this study is to review and outline the situation with regard to the existing capacity of social partners in Bulgaria in the road transport sector, as well as to identify the opportunities to improve its effectiveness and its role on the various levels. Following a short introduction, Chapter 2 of the study outlines the legal framework in the road transport. It lists the key EU regulations and directives, as well as the international conventions and treaties, to which Bulgaria is a party. There is also a review of the legislation governing the social dialogue. Chapter 3 presents the national transport policy of Bulgaria and outlines its priorities in the road transport sector. It also presents the activities and main functions of the Executive Agency "Road Transport Administration". It includes a description of the organisational structure of the agency. Moreover, it describes the future development trends in the sector. Further in the study, there is an analysis of the Bulgarian transport market. The document reviews and analyses the main indicators characterizing the large transport operators, as well as the small undertakings. It also describes their structure, management, ownership, operations, and human resources. At that point the document discusses the current effect of the global financial crisis on the Bulgarian transport operators. The last Chapter of the study is focused on the various participants in the social dialogue and their organisations. The existing collective labour agreements are described. Special attention is paid to the social partners’ participation in the tripartite social dialogue in the road transport sector. The report ends with conclusions and recommendations on the need of training and promotion of the further development of the social dialogue, which aims at its transformation into a system, meeting the needs and requirements of all participants. The study and the contents of this report mainly count on information and data obtained from interviews with representatives of various organisations, as well as from published sources and reports. Transport has a strategic importance for every country. Trends in transport largely reflect the economic development of the country. There is a tight bond between the transport sector and the other sectors of the economy. On the one hand, in order to develop they need effective and well-developed transport sector. On the other hand, the transport sector is strongly dependant on the development of the other economic sectors. One of the main tasks of the transport sector in Bulgaria is the provision of effective and reliable transport services, which would help improve the economic and social stability of the country. Road transport has a key and dominating role in the Bulgarian transport system. In 2000 the share of road transport was 52.3%, and today it represents some 70% of the entire transport activity and maintains a permanent, high annual growth. CHAPTER TWO 3 BULGARIAN LEGAL FRAMEWORK IN THE FIELD OF ROAD TRANSPORT Constitution of the transport market is possible only with the legal regulations and secondary legislation, defining its organization and rules for transport operations. The road transport sector is well regulated at European level. The European legislation in this field covers extremely big number of provisions relating to technical, fiscal, social and environmental requirements. Since January 1, 2007 Bulgaria is a full member of the European Union and as all other sectors and sub-sectors of the economy,

  • Bulgarian Cultural Diplomacy Before and After the 1990S: the Case of Japan(GADJEVA)
    Bulgarian Cultural Diplomacy before and after the 1990s: The case of Japan(GADJEVA) Article Bulgarian Cultural Diplomacy before and after the 1990s: The case of Japan GADJEVA, Nadejda Petrova Abstract The previous article in this series explored Japanese public diplomacy and soft power in Bulgaria. This article focuses on Bulgarian cultural diplomacy in Japan. The paper examines the Bulgarian cultural diplomacy strategy in Japan before and after the 1990s. It puts emphasis on Bulgarian cultural diplomacy dimensions both autonomously and as a representative of the European Union. The article demonstrates how through various cultural diplomacy initiatives in Japan, Bulgaria increased its cultural presence in the country. It also observes the contribution of the Bulgarian cultural diplomacy to the strengthening of Bulgarian-Japanese cultural, political, and economic relations during the periods. The reason for dividing the analysis of the relations into two major periods is that the 1990s had a big impact on the Bulgarian international relations and internal policy. Bulgaria started a long transition from state socialism and a one-party political system to a multi-party democracy and liberal market economy, which led to certain transformations in Bulgarian foreign policy. The major focus of the country on the emerging social changes provided a totally different context for Bulgarian-Japanese relations. Keywords: Bulgarian cultural diplomacy, cultural promotion, cultural presence, Bulgarian- Japanese relations Table of Contents 1. Introduction 2. The Concept of “Cultural Diplomacy” 2.1 Cultural Diplomacy as a Subset of Public Diplomacy 2.2 Definitions 2.3 Core Elements of Cultural Diplomacy 2.4 Differences between Cultural Diplomacy and Cultural Exchange 3.
