The condition of the economic science in Bulgaria

Summary/Abstract: An overall picture of the contemporary condition of the economic science in Bulgaria is outlined, resulting from its internal changes during the last twelve years. The analysis is carried out in five main directions - redefinition of the subject, principal theoretic and methodological orientations, topical orientation and financing, social area and academic debate, and views on further development. The situation before 1989 is presented in brief in order to position and understand more clearly the problems and processes of development. Each separate direction is singled out in a way to ensure comparability between the different countries. The principal conclusion is that the economic science in Bulgaria has undergone sufficiently serious and profound changes in its subject matter and methodology of research and instruction in its connection with the world economic science, and in this number with the European economic science. This is a good prerequisite for a successful inclusion of the Bulgarian economists in the integrated space of the European research effort.
