Summary/Abstract: The upper chronological boundary of 1915 marked the actual end of an almost uninterrupted development of the Bulgarian bourgeois economy, and the lower - 1944, indicated the end of the bourgeois state system, and with it practically of the bourgeois economy. The contents of economic thought at that time up to the present have been represented and assessed by official economic thinkers on the basis of the non-scientific class-and-party approach. The broken bit rising role of the State in organizing the economic life in the country was the most general characteristic in the period under review. It began with the putting of the national economy on war-time foundations in 1915. Towards the end of the period a researcher gave an apt assessment: “The command economy by an inner necessity becomes prevalent ever more today and in one or other form occupies a central place in the national economic policy of the State”. Such was also the world tendency. The role of economic thought in this process was considerable because it was necessary to solve numerous complex contradictory problems. The Bulgarian economic thinkers coped well with their tasks. In the text are assessed the views of such authors as Kiril Popov, Georgi Danailov, Alexander Tsankov, Dimitur Mishaikov, Todor Vladigerov and many others.
