The presentation will explore the end of the Cold War from a peripheral perspective, focusing on the relationship between Bulgaria and Turkey, two neighboring countries on opposite sides of the Iron Curtain. It will highlight an alternative approach to studying the end of the Cold War by examining these peripheral dynamics.

Bogoya Dimitrov is a Visiting International Student at UW-Madison, originally from the European University Institute in Italy. His research centers on Bulgarian-Turkish diplomatic relations during the Cold War.
