Summary/Abstract: The article presents an analysis of Bulgarian medics’ migrations during Socialism and Post-Socialism. It is examined in several perspectives: the clash of two discourses on medics’ migration and its paradoxes; periodization of the “migration in white”; dynamics of push/pull factors; multidimensional gains in symbolic capital (professional, humanitarian, economic, democratic). The field-work was conducted in 2012-14, in Bulgaria and several European countries (mainly France). The respondents were doctors of different medical specialties; directors of three large metropolitan hospitals; doctors who emigrated to EU; doctors who turned back from member states; medics with the intention to emigrate; mobile doctors without intent to emigrate; mobile doctors practicing in the two countries.
