planned-centralised to free-market economy and from totalitarian to democratic

from 10th December 2002 to 17th March 2003 in 100 consecutive issues of
the most widely circulated and highly read Bulgarian daily newspaper –

and results, problems and perspectives of the transition in Bulgaria have
been shown. The analysis has been carried out in relation to two of the
basic spheres of social life - economy and politics.
Key words: sociological method, transition, specific features,
