The paper describes three stages of the privatisation process in Bulgaria 1990-1997. In the first period (1990-1993) progress was very slow. Only after 1993 a significant privatisation started. Mainly retail shops, restaurants and small businesses of various kinds were sold. In 1996 a programme for mass-privatisation was launched which has led to a widespread share-ownership in Bulgaria.
All countries of Central and Eastern Europe had to bear and are still bearing tremendous costs of the economic and political transformation. This paper deals with the case of Bulgaria. We describe the social situation and the most important social security institutions in Bulgaria (unemployment benefits, the pension system and family support) over the period of the last seven years.
The submitted paper is discussing the role of labour in the restructuring process of agricultural enterprises as apart of the transition process towards a market economy. A concept for the measurement of lacks in efficiency is formulated on the background of the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Furthermore first outcomes of a comparative survey of Brandenburg (Germany) and a region in Poland are presented by the use of the explained methods.
