Tribulations of Post-Communism
A taka’s victory in the June 2005 legislative elections came
as a surprise. This nationalist coalition borrows its platform both from the
extreme right (anti-Turk and anti-Roma sentiments) and the extreme left
(anti-Americanism, nostalgia for an authoritarian socialist state) while cultivating a degree of anti-Semitism. Two months earlier, Bulgaria had signed its
Accession Treaty to the European Union. With a steady growth rate, rising
foreign investment and the gradual catching-up of the new middle class’
incomes, the country seemed about to complete its post-communist “transition.” What does the emergence of a radical political group signify this late
in the course of change ? Volen Siderov’s party scores first of all translate the
rejection of a political class accused of defending individual interests at the
expense of the common good. This success also reflects the tensions caused
by the brutal post-communist transformations and the disorientation that has
accompanied them. Last of all, they indicate frustrations with respect to an
international community (the IMF, the United States and the European Union)
that has obliged the country to enact unpopular measures in the name of
standards that it often disregards itself. It would be unwise to turn a deaf ear
to the questions raised by Ataka. Notwithstanding Siderov’s electoral gains,
these issues are due to remain in the public space for a certain time. |
