Tracing the evolution of the Bulgarian state and its people, from
the beginning of the Bulgarian national revival in the middle of
the nineteenth century to the entry of the country into the
European Union, Richard Crampton examines key political, social,
and economic developments, revealing the history of a country which
evolved from a backward and troublesome Balkan state to become a
modern European nation. The formation of the first modern Bulgarian
state in 1878 played a major role in Bulgaria's evolution,
determining its stance in the two World Wars. Seeing the collapse
as well as the establishment and evolution of communist rule,
Bulgaria survived an often painful journey from monolithic
authoritarianism to representative democracy and the market system.
This book follows this journey, and analyses the development of
Bulgaria's political culture, examining the emergence of radical
movements, both agrarian and socialist, as well as looking at the
role of religion and the position of minorities. Crampton
highlights the problems and dilemmas created by the country's
position situated between east and west, problems which might not
be entirely solved by the country's admission to the EU.
