Завръщане към европейската конституционна традиция след 1989 г.
A Return to the European Constitutional Tradition Since 1989

Summary/Abstract: The Constitution of the Republic of Bulgaria adopted by the Grand National Assembly on July 12, 1991, is the fourth in line Bulgarian constitution. The question whether four constitutions are not enough or they are too many for a country with 130 years of modern existence is scholastic and unhistorical, as the level of constitutionalism is determined not by the number of constitutions (the U.S. have still only one constitution, while Britain has no written constitution at all), but rather by their successful functioning in the specifi c socio-political conditions of the country. In the Bulgarian case, in les s than a century and a half the country underwent deep transformations which changed several times its geopolitical position and role, and that actually necessitated also the search for constitutional legitimacy of the new social situation.
