Clearing agreements were not invented by the Nazis and, unlike early beliefs, are not an instrument of economic exploitation. Bulgaria manages to secure an export market through them, as well as important industrial imports. But Germany is turning clearing agreements into a comprehensive trade regime. raw materials from all over Europe and financing of its military machine. Bulgaria's strategy for integration with the German market is not ideologically but economically justified, and the state-corporate regime in the country is formed in response to German requirements, and not as an imitation of the German model. After the collapse of Germany at the end of World War II and the communist pogroms in Bulgaria, when seemingly nothing was left of the previous world order, the bilateral clearing regime continued to function in the economic bloc of the USSR. How can this stability of the foreign trade order be explained against the background of the radically different global conditions, economic structures and ideologies of the Reich and the Soviet Union? What is Bulgaria's role and how does the old regime serve its new political goals?
