"Area Handbook for Bulgaria" by Keefe, Baluyut, Giloane, Long, Moore, and Walpole is a comprehensive social, economic, and political analysis written in the early 1970s. This work focuses on providing an objective depiction of Bulgarian society and institutions, particularly during the communist era under the Bulgarian Communist Party (BKP). It serves as a resource for military and other personnel requiring essential information pertaining to Bulgaria's history, governance, and cultural context. The opening
of the handbook sets the stage for understanding Bulgaria's political landscape in mid-1973, where the state remains under the tight grip of the Bulgarian Communist Party. The authors describe the historical events leading to Bulgaria's current system, emphasizing the legacy of Soviet influence. Important figures, such as Todor Zhivkov, are introduced, along with their relationships with Soviet leaders. This segment also outlines Bulgaria's aspirations for territorial reclamation and national identity, touching on its irredentist ambitions that have persisted despite the twists of history. Overall, this beginning portion meticulously establishes the groundwork for the detailed exploration of Bulgaria's multifaceted society that follows in the subsequent chapters.
