PROBLEMS OF CORRUPTION AND CIVIL SOCIETY IN BULGARIA

Abstract

In order to limit corruption, the world community has developed a number of forms and methods of struggle: administrative and legal (creation of specialized bodies to investigate violations of the law in the field of public services); moral revival of society; government accountability to elected representatives and the mass electorate, etc. However, the results of the modern «struggle between the state and the civil society» in the context of globalization and a unipolar economic model do not show absolute positive dynamics in any of the countries; on the contrary, the index (TI) either fluctuates or falls. The article attempts to approach the explanation of this social phenomenon not from the position of formal regulation, but from the position of: the natural nature of man, due to the limited material resources of the earth, the current economic model and the geopolitical structure of the world, the loss of national sovereignty.
