Националните работнически синдикати (1932–1934)
The National Workers Trade-Unions (1932–1934)

Summary/Abstract: On the 23rd of November 1932 the General Union of the National Workers Trade-Unions (NWTU) was created, with the help of the Peoples Social Movement (PSM) and was under its ideological and political leadership. The NWTU was formed as a third syndical central which broke the factual monopoly of the Free Ge¬neral Workers Trade-Union and the Independent Workers Professional Unions, connected with the Bulgarian Working Social-Democratic Party (united) and the Bulgarian Communist Party, above the workers and professional movement in Bulgaria. In the present article the author tries to make clear some of the following questions: first – the mechanism of the creation of the NWTU and the reasons for the participation of some part of the workers in it; second – its aims and how they are fulfilled; third – the concrete consequences for the workers professional movement in the country in the middle of the 30’s. The clarification of these questions is necessary for the complement of the history of the working-professional movement in Bulgaria and also for the completing of some of the sides of the activity of the NWTU.
