I approach the question by exploring the ideas surrounding the creation of the Riben Bukvar, or “Fish Primer”, by Petăr Beron, published in 1824. This was the first Bulgarian textbook, and in contrast to coeval Bulgarian literature, written consistently in language based on spoken Bulgarian. The early years of Beron’s adulthood that led to the creation of the Fish Primer offer an illuminating perspective on the role of Greek culture in the Balkan society of the era. Special attention will be given to the influence of the well-known Greek scholar and educator Konstantinos Vardalachos on the thinking of the young Petăr Beron. One of the most recent contributions to the question of Greek influence is by Raymond Detrez (2008), who, by analyzing the shared “Romaic” identity of the Greek Orthodox millet of the Ottoman Empire, reaches the conclusion that the Greeks presented no threat to the emerging Bulgarian national consciousness. However, as some additional evidence points to the contrary, I begin by examining the conflicting interpretations of this much-debated question in Bulgarian historiography. -
Town of Zlatitsa
Town of Zlatitsa The Clock Tower The Town Centre ZLATITSA MUNICIPALITY – SPIRITUAL, EDUCATIONAL, SPORTS, ENTERTAINMENT AND COMMERCIAL CENTRE OF THE SREDNOGORIE REGION, AIMING TO ACHIEVE ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY AND SOCIAL JUSTICE FOR ALL ITS CITIZENS. Zlatitsa is situated in the Zlatitsa-Pirdop Hollow. To the north of it stretch the Southern slopes of the Balkan Mountain Range and the far-most village of Petrich rests in the nothern parts of Ihtimanska and Sashtinska Sredna Gora mountains. It neighbor the municipalities of Pirdop,Chavdar, Chelopech,Mirkovo and Etropole.. Zlatitsa Municipality covers three villages – Karlievo, Tsarkvishte and Petrich. The totalpopulation in them is 725 people. Half of them are involved in plant growing and animal raising. They either sell their agricultural produce or use it themselves. Most of these farmers act as sole traders and don’t associate due to the higher risks about it. Tsarkvishte Karlievo Petrich The town of Zlatitsa is set in a boundlessly beautiful and interesting natural environment. Despite the fact that there are three active industrial plants nearby, the air is relatively clean. Most of the town’s sights of interest are natural, like Spasovoto Kladenche – a water fountain in the Balkan Mountain north of Zlatitsa. That is where in a bloody fight with Turkish invaders at the end of 14 c. A.D. Spas Voyvoda, the last defender of Zlatitsa, was killed. It is him that the area was named after. The region is characterized by a favourable geographical setting and climate, beautiful natural and cultural heritage. The municipality provides excellent conditions for the development of agriculture: • In Zlatitsa large • The villages within quantities of good-quality Zlatitsa municipality farming produce are include large areas of grown. -
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.

A Comparative Study of Post-Ottoman Political Influences on Bulgarian National Identity Construction and Conflict
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF POST-OTTOMAN POLITICAL INFLUENCES ON BULGARIAN NATIONAL IDENTITY CONSTRUCTION AND CONFLICT BY Copyright 2008 SPENCER S.

Baumann, PhD – History Committee Member Date Defended: 15 May 2008 The Thesis Committee for Spencer S. Stith certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF POST-OTTOMAN POLITICAL INFLUENCES ON BULGARIAN NATIONAL IDENTITY CONSTRUCTION AND CONFLICT Committee: ___________________________ Elif Andac, Chairperson* ___________________________ Ebenezer Obadare ___________________________ Robert F. Baumann Date Approved: 08 June 2008 ii Abstract Bulgarian society has a successful history of maintaining a relatively peaceful multicultural environment over centuries. This thesis is a comparative analysis of three transitional periods in Bulgaria coinciding with 1) the latter years of Ottoman dominion: 1762-1877, 2) the end of the Balkan Wars and World Wars I and II: 1878- 1947, and 3) the latter years of the Communist dominion: 1947-1989. These periods will be analyzed with the aim to understand the role that regional political agendas have played in shaping an imagined Bulgarian national identity. It will be shown that when it has occurred, identity-based conflict in Bulgaria can be better explained by examining the contributions of nationalist political influences from 1876 – 1989 on identity construction rather than an inherent Balkan propensity to religious and ethnic intolerance. -

Between Politics and Objectivity: The Non-Remembrance of the 1989 Ethnic Cleansing of Turks in Communist Bulgaria Tomasz Kamusella University of St Andrews Work address and email School of History University of St Andrews St Katharine’s Lodge The Scores St Andrews KY16 9BA Scotland, UK Bio Tomasz Kamusella is Reader (Professor Extraordinarius) in Modern History at the University of St Andrews, Scotland, UK. He specializes in the interdisciplinary study of language politics and nationalism in modern central Europe. His recent English-language publications include the monographs Ethnic Cleansing During the Cold War: The Forgotten 1989 Expulsion of Turks from Communist Bulgaria (2018), The Un-Polish Poland, 1989 and the Illusion of Regained Historical Continuity (2017), and Creating Languages in Central Europe During the Last Millennium (2014). Lately, he also initiated and cooedited the following volumes, The Social and Political History of Southern Africa's Languages (2018), The Palgrave Handbook of Slavic Languages, Identities and 1 Borders (2016), and Creating Nationality in Central Europe, 1880-1950: Modernity, Violence and (Be) Longing in Upper Silesia (2016). Abstract Cold War Europe’s largest and most intensive act of ethnic cleansing, namely, the 1989 expulsion of Turks from communist Bulgaria, remains a neglected subject three decades on after the event. When it took place, the term “ethnic cleansing” had not been invented yet, so in light of international law this expulsion was a “population transfer.” Population transfers (even unilateral) were deemed legal until the mid-1990s. Subsequently, under the influence of the atrocities committed during the wars of Yugoslav succession, population transfers were criminalized and relabeled as “ethnic cleansings.” For a variety of reasons, the 1989 Ethnic Cleansing has been also neglected by scholars and politicians in both, Bulgaria and Turkey. -
