Focusing on the case of Bulgaria, this paper examines the trends, causes and social impacts of transitory migration, and especially that of asylum seekers and refugees, in Bulgaria as part of the Central and Eastern European (CEE) region and the broader EU context. It provides a statistical overview of refugee flows since 2012 and indicators of the rates of retention or transition. The paper also describes the legislative frameworks on the EU — and national levels which define the required reception conditions and the procedural treatment of asylum seekers and refugees, and elaborates on their practical application, including deficiencies in the conditions for receiving refugees, procedural flaws and the lack of integration measures. Finally, the paper discusses the impact of these processes on Bulgarian society, including the role of civil society.

The article deals with one of the medieval Bulgarian sources about the origin of Paulicianism – the so called Sermon of Saint John Chrysostom on the Оrigin of Paulicians. On the basis of linguistic, textological and historical analysis it is concluded that the “sermon” appears to be a popular “contra version” of an unknown Paulician myth of historical and religious identity. It is suggested a reconstruction of this supposed myth and its obvious connections with Manicheism are traced out. Finally the traces of Manicheism in Paulician belief system are discussed.

The author emphasizes the specific features of globalization processes described by terms like: information technology, transformations of material culture, national economy and circulation of increasingly less tangible financial capital. The virtual world with sophisticated tools and well-trained specialists offers a broad selection of opportunities to make the economy stronger. However, not every actor (state) has tools to participate in this global competition. This article examines how national economies, including Bulgaria, try to become a full right member (participant) in the global “game.”

The study is devoted to establishment and research orientation of so-called Pilsen Bulgarian studies. In the Czech academia, Bulgarian studies were traditionally understood as philological field of study (the same situation applies to Czech studies in Bulgaria). However, contemporary globalized world offers much more opportunities for academic interest in Bulgaria. Pilsen Bulgarian studies represent different new model of academic centre based on non-philological grounds. This now fully established group of pedagogues and students created, without being formally institutionalized in the structure of the university, research centre focused on Bulgarian issues which is characterized by wide spectrum of activities and important research results. More attention and support should be focused on research centres of this kind instead of focusing only on well-established, institutionalized and traditional ones.

The article shows the attitude of the Great Britain towards controversies connected with the so‑called Macedonian issue during the inter‑war period, using British archival and published sources. From the point of view of Great Britain the Macedonian issue should be eliminated from the international politics of those times. Its instrumentalization through individual revisionist countries of the region and powers could lead to destruction of the interwar political order in the region. The Macedonian case was treated by British diplomats as a result of political manipulation and unfulfilled aspirations of circles, dissatisfied with the political status quo of those days. The demands to recognize the Macedonian population as an ethnic minority were ignored by the British diplomacy, treating them as an expression of revisionism. The British hope was in the long‑term assimilation of the population within Yugoslavia and Greece. British diplomacy insisted that Bulgarian authorities restrict the influence of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization (IMRO) on relations with Yugoslavia. On the other hand, Yugoslavia should give up supporting Bulgarian emigrants who found refuge there after the coup in September 1923. Moreover, British diplomacy cared about no influence, in any form of the controversy related to the Macedonian issue, on the League of Nations.

Several years lasting research of economic migration between Bulgaria and Greece brought a personal transformation in the author’s life, which turned her into a Bulgaria based work migrant. This essay question the possible effects of economic migration of a fieldworker and their methodological consequences. Author also targets the outstandingly frequent involvement of anthropology graduates within the work migration cycles, interestingly these flows aim not only towards “the West” but also “the East”. The stereotype of unqualified economic migrant moving from “East” to “West” flooding the target country with people of their own needs to be reconsidered. Economic migration embrace people with different educational level, and field backgrounds, furthermore some fields like social-cultural anthropology are even more involved. It can challenge anthropology graduates to get the best from this situation, if not for the scientific progress, then at least to self-explain their career choice.

The main specific of this development is main role of folkloristics in establishment of this field since 1989; ethnography played only secondary role in this process, resulting in state of affairs different from other nations of South- Eastern Europe. Other specifics of post-1989 development of Bulgarian ethnology are also presented resulting in the conclusion that current Bulgarian ethnology now exists as academic field parallel to sociocultural anthropology.

Along with the political, social and political changes in Bulgaria and Romania, new threads have appeared in the debate on identity since the early 1990s. From one side, it was the result of challenges and threats in the dimension of foreign policy and security of these two countries, and on the other side – the result of new opportunities that emerged in front of Bulgaria and Romania in the generally changed geopolitical situation. It seems that Romania remains more consistent and expressive in its choices. In turn, Bulgaria has undergone a greater evolution, and given the level from which it began after 1989, maybe even a revolution in the perception of its European identity.

The author undertakes an important issue relating to axiology of activities (individual and collective) incorporated in the Bulgarian financial and economic practice. Moneva points to phenomena which favour corruption and reinforce patterns of illegal conduct and practices distant from what has been recognized in liberal democracies of the West as correct and recommended. Lack of clarity and transparency of power, lack of public oversight over state institutions support persistence of pathological and destructive practices. The article constitutes an important voice in defence of democratic values.

The paper presents the problem of the influence of positive and negative stereotypes of the Turk on the Bulgarian state’s policy towards the Muslim minority in 1878–1912. The first part of the text analyses the evolution of the negative stereotype of the Turk as the “cruel tormentor” and the positive one of the “good neighbor” in Bulgarian culture from the beginning of the Ottoman period to the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The second part focuses on the discriminative aspects of Bulgarian minority policy towards the Muslim population that was mostly implemented at the end of the 1870s and the beginning of the 1880s. Part three presents examples of the tolerant attitude by Bulgarian authorities that dominated Sofia’s policy towards the Muslims from the Union from 1885 to the outbreak of the Balkan Wars.

A fragment of the upper part of a beaker of transparent olive-green glass decorated with a series of non-transparent red-brown glass trails was discovered in a 4th/5th c. assemblage at the Byzantine fortress in Odărci (northeastern Bulgaria). The space between the two sets of trails is filled with two rows of letters in the Greek alphabet, which were painted with a color that is now white. The body of the vessel and the ornament were both made of glass of the Na2O · CaO · Al2O3 · SiO2 chemical type. The body (matrix) glass was colored with oxides of iron (Fe2O3) and titanium (TiO2), that of the ornament with oxides of iron (Fe2O3), manganese (MnO) and copper (CuO). The results of a comparative analysis of sum totals and ratios of main glass-forming components and the quantitative content of different components in the glass of vessel from Odărci, compared to objects from other regions, appear to indicate that the glass of beaker was melted in a center somewhere in southern Europe or in Mediterranean center (in the late Roman or early Byzantine period).

Old age as aconstant, necessary attribute of life has been apoint of interest of the writers since the latest times. Its presence in the culture distinguish various intensity, and its perception oscillates anywhere from negation and disdain to elation and affirmation; nevertheless it always proves that literature pays attention to various stages of getting old. Following Bulgarian national renaissance in the first part of 19th century, in aBulgarian society took place broad, revolutionary generation change — programme of which could be found in the literary texts. Typical image of an old mother — personification of Bulgaria — simple women abandoned by her dear ones, anguished by malicious enemies yet unwavering and defending tradition becomes asymbol of the changes needed in the society.

Старостта като неотменна и задължителна част от живота още в най-далечни времена се превръща в тема на множество литературни текстове. Тя присъства в културата с различен интензитет, а начинът, по който се оценява този последен етап от човешката екзистенция прилича на синусоида, променяща се с течение на времето от отрицание и презрение до възхита и утвърждаване. Едновременно с това присъствието на тази тематика доказва, че литературата проявява постоянен интерес към различните етапи на остаряването. Българското Възраждане от първата половина на XIX век става двигател на широка, революционна смяна на поколенията в българското общество, чиято програма е отразена в множество литературни текстове. Характерният образ на старата майка — персонификация на България — обикнове на жена, изоставена от най-близките си, подтискана от жестоки врагове, но непобедима и защитаваща своята традиция — се превръща също така в символ на необходимите и неотложни обществени промени.
