The Authoritarian Populism Index 2024, published by Timbro and EPICENTER and presented in Bulgaria by the Institute for Market Economics, provides insights into Europe's political landscape, with Bulgaria offering a distinct pattern as support for populist parties dropped below 20% in 2023, contrary to the continental trend.
