History[edit]
Bulgarian Scientific and Sociological Society[edit]
The first professional sociological organization in Bulgaria was the Bulgarian Scientific and Sociological Society, established in 1932 in Sofia. Its goals and tasks were to develop the scientific problems of sociology, to disseminate sociological knowledge, to organize scientific meetings, public discussions and more. Its founders and members were Kiril Grigorov, Sava Ganovski, Evgeni Kamenov, Ivan Kinkel, Todor Pavlov, Nikola Sakarov, Todor Samodumov. Its activity was discontinued in 1939.[1]
Sociological Society[edit]
In 1959 a Sociological Society was established, which in the same year was accepted as a member of the International Sociological Association.
Bulgarian Sociological Association[edit]
In April 1969 the Sociological Society was transformed into the Bulgarian Sociological Association. One of the most important international events organized by BSA at the very beginning of its existence was the Seventh World Congress of Sociology, September 14-19, 1970, in Varna.[2] Approximately 3200 sociologists from 14 countries took part and over 1040 papers were presented.[3]
On July 6, 2001 at the General Assembly a new Statute of BAS[4] was adopted At the General Assembly on May 11, 2004 the Code of Ethics of BAS[5] was adopted. They become the main normative documents around which the activity of the Association is built.
