Abstract
The text is based on several empirical studies dealing with the question – whether the current nationalism in Bulgaria (compared to other Balkan countries) is inherited from previous periods, i.e. – whether it is "immanently inherent" to the Bulgarian nation, or whether it is the result of specific conjunctures and is activated on specific occasions. The question is also examined – whether the motivation for nationalist mobilization is always due to "innate" or "inherited" nationalism, or whether it can be different – social, economic, political, seen as "purely" nationalist.
