| | Bulgaria - Ecological Organizations and Revived Prewar Parties (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18) |
 | | Besides the BSP and BANU, parties officially sanctioned under Zhivkov, an unofficial list of political organizations in early 1990 contained fourteen political parties, seven unions and labor federations, and sixteen forums, clubs, movements, committees, and associations--diverging widely in scope, special interests, and size. |
 | | The main socialist party in Bulgaria between the world wars, the BSDP was disbanded by the communists in 1948. |
 | | The Petkov branch of the Bulgarian Agrarian National Union (BANU), the third of the prewar parties to emerge as an independent entity after Zhivkov, was the part of the agrarian movement that had actively opposed the communists between 1944 and 1947 and thus did not survive the postwar communist consolidation. |
