Social protection in early medieval Bulgarian state (VII-XI century)

Abstract

This study is an attempt to systematize and analyze historical information on the nature and mechanisms of social protection of Bulgarian society applied in the Early Medieval Bulgarian State (VII-XI century). The different social forms of social protection of Slavs and Bulgarians (Proto-Bulgarians) in the state period have been examined. The changes and specificities in the established social relations and the social regulation applied by the state administration after its consolidation are presented. Key characteristics and initiatives in the social policy carried out by the central government (the Bulgarian rulers) are presented during the different stages of its chronological development. It follows the different directions in the social-protection policy of the Bulgarian Khan-kingdom in the periods before the adoption of Christianity and after its establishment until the beginning of the 11th century, showing the processes related to the regulation and institutionalization of the care for the poor of the monasteries, as well as the specific forms and manifestations of charity, which have been witnessed in the Bulgarian lands under Byzantine rule from the end of the 11th century.
