Transformation Processes Among the Political Elite of the Bulgarian Turks (1990 - 1992) от Burnaski, Georgi
The text is devoted to the important problem about the conflict between the proclaimed values of elites in politics and their real attitude towards them. Particular subject of the research is the political elite of the Bulgarian Turks and mainly the parliamentary representation of the Movement for Rights and Freedom in the VII Grand National Assembly and in the XXXVI National Assembly. In future researches the author intends to place the focus on the other displays of the elite of the Bulgarian Turks.
Presenting the dependence between the legitimacy of the leaders of MRF used in the multiparty system for gaining trust and political power with their positions in the totalitarian social pyramid Georgi Burnaski expresses his opinion that the political elite of the Bulgarian Turks in the beginning of the 1990s rises from mediator between the rulers and masses to key political actor. Accepting the affirmation that the elite conception doesn’t limit just to those who are on the surface of the political life the author reaches the conclusion that the elite of the Bulgarian Turks doesn’t essentially change itself and is just disguising into new appearance. This means the transformation processes are dictated by the reproductive model according to which the old elite morphs into new one without questioning its privileged positions.
