Бежанците и местните в Старозагорско — поселения и взаимоотношения (1878 – ср. 30-те год. на ХХ век)
Refugees and Locals in the Region of Stara Zagora: Settlements and Mutual Relations (1878 – mid-1930s)

Summary/Abstract: This work focuses on refugees from different ethno-religious communities, who had settled in the region of Stara Zagora in the wake of the Russian-Turkish War of Liberation in 1878 and until the mid-1930s and their interrelations with the local residents and the authorities after their settlement in the new territories. As a result of the waves of refugees from the late 19th – early decades of the 20th century, the ethnic picture of the Stara Zagora region changed in terms of percentages. The refugee families of Bulgarians from Aegean Macedonia and Eastern Thrace, who had been forced to settle here, as well as Armenians, Gypsies and others, were welcomed by the locals and found new homes and livelihood. They fitted in the socio-political, social and cultural life of the local community.
