The Bulgarian Economy in Transition (Studies of Communism in Transition series)

By John A. Bristow

John Bristow's wide-ranging review, based on primary sources, traces economic developments since the fall of Zhivkov in late 1989. The progress of the macroeconomy, sectoral developments, international relations, reform of the banking and fiscal systems, and privatization are all extensively examined by Professor Bristow. While focusing on policy and the failure of the Bulgarian political system to provide sufficient momentum for effective economic reform, this important book acknowledges the successes and recognizes the problems of framing policy in times of severe economic dysfunction. Accessible and up-to-date, The Bulgarian Economy in Transition will be welcomed by scholars, researchers and policy makers concerned with the problems of transition from planned to market economies.
