Abstract: The industrialization of Bulgaria, conducted in the period 1944-1989, is at the center of radical reforms to establish a socialist centrally planned economy. Discussed are the main aspects of this process - starting base, model of reconstruction, forced construction of industry and investment policy of the state, efficiency of production, urbanization and more. In certain stages of industrialization high quantitative results have been achieved, while showing a number of distortions. Some of them are considered and discussed as part of the reasons for the failure of socialism in Bulgaria.
