The year 1947 in Bulgarian history is associated with the implementation of an important monetary reform. It is part of a chain of profound and comprehensive changes that led to the establishment of a Stalinist economic and socio-political model: nationalization of industry, adoption of a new constitution, elimination of the parliamentary opposition, collectivization of agriculture, etc. The important lessons …
