Abstract

The introduction of flat-tax rate in Bulgaria in 2008 took place and without serious economic, social and political analysis. Neither the opposition at the time, nor the trade unions and non-governmental organizations reacted adequately to such a serious and, as it turned out, too risky change in the fiscal policy of the country.
