This review is from: Foreign Investments in Bulgaria (Hardcover)

Nikolay Natov wrote this book while serving as a lecturer in Private International Law at Sofia University in Bulgaria.

This, unfortunately, is a dreary piece where little of Mr. Natov's technique as a lecturer comes through. The quality of presenting the information is sufficiently low and the text so riddled with incomprehensible or misleading (in English generally or as a minimum - in legal English) expressions, that any value that the bites of knowledge about Bulgaran regulation of foreign investment that it contains may have, is hopelessly lost on the reader.

Slightly more irritating than the repetitive incantation of the book's style are its datedness and generality.

Far from offering a concise, argued and informative guide to an important area of a legal system which is coming increasingly under challenge in its functioning (not least in EU accession negotiations), this volume is weak and uncritical.

As an attempt to present Bulgarian law to English-speaking readers this is sadly a failure. Equally so, and equally sadly, as an effort to showcase Bulgarian legal scholarship outside the country.
