The Concept of Civil Society During Bulgaria's Post-1989 “Transition”

Stoyanova, Veronika (2019) The Concept of Civil Society During Bulgaria's Post-1989 “Transition”. Kontradikce, 3 (2). pp. 109-128. ISSN 2570-7485. (doi:10.46957/con.2019.2.6) (KAR id:86956)

Abstract

The following is a slightly revised selection from chapter 4 of Veronika Stoyanova’s recent book Ideology and Social Protests in Eastern Europe: Beyond the Transition’s Liberal Consensus (London: Routledge, 2018). Stoyanova traces discursive developments during the final years of Communist Party rule in Bulgaria and the radical transformations that followed, when the concept of civil society played a central role in emerging justifications of democracy, market reforms, and a certain kind of anti-populist elitism.
