The Rise and Decay of the Socialist Economy in Bulgaria
分析了保加利亚从共产主义前到新政府时期的经济制度与政策，探讨了经济衰落的原因及改革前景，适合研究东欧转型经济的学者参考。
The political reconstruction of Bulgaria has gone on more slowly than in Central Europe, but the role of the former communists is weaker than in neighboring Romania or Serbia and, of course, much more so than in the Soviet Union (except for the Baltic Republics). This paper discusses the economy before communist rule; economic institutions and policy options under the communists; economic decay and the dangers of procrastination; and the new government's program and its prospects.
