Zusammenfassung
The second party system in Bulgaria after 1989 (2001-2009) turns out to have been subjected to new turmoil after the National Assembly elections in 2009. Its lability and ongoing transformation, and a growing crisis of trust among citizens regarding the parties, was evident. In 2009, GERB took over the government of the country on their own, and their leader Borisov was elected prime minister. Borisov himself was at that moment a unique phenomenon of the political horizon after 1989, being seen as a figure who managed to fit well in both the national psychological notion of a determined politician of action and a man of the „people“, significantly different from the prime ministers who had held this post before his mandate. Political parties in Bulgaria bear the mark of semi-consolidated democracy. The party system, as part of the democratic political system, is characterised by great volatility as a result of the rise and demise of numerous political parties. This caused the relatively rapid transition from the first party system 1989-2001 to the second party system (2001-2009) and to the third party system.
