This book is a collection of analyses, comments and reports created between 2011 and 2017. Most of the texts were written in Brussels, where the author was a correspondent for "Trud" and then - for "Club Z" from 2007 to 2017. Hence the inevitable European perspective on the national issue. The central themes are oligarchy, corruption, the media crisis and monopoly in their sphere, reforms in the judiciary and internal affairs of Bulgaria, the development of democracy, the country's international relations, the crises of the European Union and its attempts to reform itself. The subject matter is topical, and the style - predominantly polemical, reflecting the spirit of the times - civil protests and sharp political opposition. "Resignation" is an emblematic word for that time. It contains the anger of the Bulgarian and his desire for change, which still does not come.
