Theodora Dragostinova

Theodora Dragostinova is a historian who studies Southeastern Europe (the Balkans), particularly Bulgaria and Greece, examining topics like nationalism, migration, socialism, and the Cold War-era cultural relations between socialist states and the wider world. Her work often explores how smaller or 'marginal' European states positioned themselves globally, and she also writes extensively as a book reviewer and editor on Eastern European and Balkan history. Prospective students interested in modern European history, nationalism, migration studies, or Cold War cultural diplomacy may find her work relevant.

Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade, with a notable peak in 2017 and 2021, followed by a steady but low rate of about one publication per year in recent years.
