Социални системи и картини на видимост

Author(s): Andrey Bundzhulov / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The main thesis o f the paper is that the concept of ‘sociological system’ (a cornerstone in Bulgarian sociology in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s) could significantly increase its potential if we connect it with the Marxian idea, as developed by Merab Mamardashvili, of converted forms as a mechanism of the functioning of social systems as ‘systems with consciousness’. In that case, however, social systems should not be viewed as pre-given but as constructed by effects of the figuration of appearances, visibilities and pictures of visibility through which they are perceived and reproduced.

Author(s): Rosen Simitchiev / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The main problem in the Bulgarian energy policy is the lack of proper definition of national interests in energy.

За социалното значение на проституцията

Author(s): Georgi Petrunov / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The text considers prostitution as a social phenomenon that requires sociological understanding and analysis. This statement stems from the social embeddedness of prostitution in the social structure and human relationships, regardless of the historical and socio-economic stage of their development. The report presents a summary of various sociological interpretations of the phenomenon under study – some of them view it as an expression of the commodification of human relationships and considering people as means in the capitalist system; others define it as structurally inseparable from the institution of marriage; still others draw attention to contemporary transformations in economic and cultural life, which have led to a change in the meaning that people attach to intimate relationships. Regardless of the prism through which prostitution is interpreted, it cannot be denied that today it has significantly increased in scale, has become a profitable industry and has significant economic and social importance. All this requires an analysis of various aspects (moral, legal, social, criminological) and opens up a field for the development not only of a sociology of prostitution, but also for the inclusion of the topic in a broader public and expert debate.
