Produktbeschreibung

Crampton highlights the problems and dilemmas created by the country's position situated between east and west, problems which might not be entirely solved by the country's admission to the EU.

---

The evolution of Bulgaria is a fascinating journey from a backward and troubled Balkan state to a modern European nation. Richard Crampton's unique study traces the development of the Bulgarian people and their state, from the beginning of a national revival in the middle of the nineteenth century to imminent entry into the European Union. This ground-breaking book from the leading expert on Bulgaria examines its problematic position between east and west, and questions how much becoming part of the EU will solve its dilemmas.
