How does the language of social media form a common being?
(Plovdiv University Press, 2025-12-15) Dafcheva, Maria
The question of how the language of social media forms a common being has turned out to be especially interesting in contemporary times. In the present article, I will focus on it. Social media gives us the opportunity for constant and continuous communication in real time, provides us with access to all types of information, and is an inseparable part of people’s lives. This happens through the mediation of language. We use language every day, but we do not think about how it forms and, at the same time, determines our being. Our idea of the world is directly reflected in the meaning that we put into words and the way in which we communicate. Language is conditioned by the rules that we follow, even if we do not always realize it. In this sense, the text is positioned on the boundary between philosophy of language, ontology, and epistemology.

Tracing the мemory: “Mini Maritsa-Iztok” in the Archives of the State Security Service
(Plovdiv University Press, 2025-12-15) Asparuhov, Valentin; Pendzhekova-Hristeva, Rusalena
The article examines archival documents of the State Security Service (DS) related to the “Mini Maritsa-Iztok” industrial complex during the 1960s and 1970s. Through an analysis of materials from literni (code-name) files, it traces how agent–operative and counterintelligence activities influenced organizational–managerial and technical–engineering decisions and challenges within this strategic energy sector. The study presents specific examples illustrating the mechanisms of surveillance, control, and institutional intervention exercised by the DS.

The archives of the Bulgarian News Agency – history, status and prospects
(Plovdiv University Press, 2025-12-15) Sevova, Desislava
In the report proposed by the Bulgarian News Agency (BTA) on the topic "The Archives of BTA – History, Status and Prospects" the following topics and issues are presented and developed: Institutional origin, content, and organization of the BTA archives and functioning of the archives in the e-environment. In order to acquaint you with the establishment of the Bulgarian Telegraph Agency in 1898, as a special service for the delivery of telegraph messages for events abroad at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Denominations (MIA), the different periods of the Agency's functioning, the first bulletins issued, the first director, and so on, to the present day are reflected. The status, structure, and functions of the Bulgarian News Agency today, with the relevant normative and sub-normative acts on the basis of which it carries out its activities, are also noted. With regard to the organization of work with the archives in BTA, a general characteristic of the individual archival arrays, types of archives, their content and features is made. For the first time in the history of BTA, a specialized structure, the Archives and Reference Directorate, was established, which covers the activities of storage, preservation, reporting and registration, access, use and digitization of archival documents from all arrays in the Agency. In order to preserve, access, use and promote archival documents, BTA has joined the National Recovery and Resilience Plan for the implementation of the investment Digitization of Museum Collections, Libraries and Archives, providing for a phased digitization of the various archival arrays with a deadline up to 2026.

In search of energy citizens or how field research took place in "Maritsa-East"
(Plovdiv University Press, 2025-12-15) Gavrailov, Gavrail
The article describes some methodological features in the preparation and conduct of a field study in the Maritsa-East complex area in the winter of 2024. The emphasis is on the opportunities for structuring successful research strategies through the mobilization of social capital in local media networks, environmental and civic activists, and municipal and regional symbols. An analysis is made of the use of a research alibi by introducing semiotic sabotage in the preparation and conduct of interviews. The mass perception of the energy citizen is summarized, and the process of democratization of energy production is analyzed in the context of the green transition in the coal region.
