Одной из тенденций, отмеченных положительным знаком в первые месяцы после ее распространения в Болгарии, было наблюдаемое обратное движение болгарских граждан, возвращающихся в страну. В этом контексте в статье исследуются аспекты идентичности и процессы социокультурной адаптации возвратившихся в Болгарию. Они вернулись в течение последних 1-5 лет и находились за границей в широком диапазоне от 2 до более 10 лет в одной или нескольких странах. В статье представлены первоначальные результаты, полученные в рамках более крупного исследования, дизайн которого состоит из количественных и качественных методов, национального репрезентативного опроса, семи дискуссий в фокус-группах в семи регионах страны и более 35 подробных интервью. Настоящая статья посвящена в основном некоторым глубинным полуструктурированным интервью. Одним из важных научных результатов является то, что болгарская национальная идентичность не ослабевает с течением времени и остается неизменной и лидирующей по сравнению с европейской и мировой. Другой результат заключается в том, что страна назначения не обязательно способствует развитию второй национальной идентичности, даже в случае приобретения гражданства. Ситуации и практики, в которых миграционный опыт репатриантов повлиял на их идентификацию с Европой, Европейским Союзом и может рассматриваться как точка формирования наднациональной идентичности, в основном связаны с путешествиями и мобильностью в пределах Европы, а также с обучением в различных странах в качестве гражданина Европейского Союза.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The Covid-19 pandemic has influenced migration and mobility patterns worldwide. One of the tendencies, marked with a positive sign in the early months after its spread in Bulgaria, was the observed reverse movements of Bulgarian citizens coming back to the country. In this context, the article explores the identity dimensions and the socio-cultural adaptation processes of returnees to Bulgaria.&amp;nbsp; They moved back during the last 1 to 5 years and have been abroad in the broad span from 2 to more than 10 years in one or more countries of destination. The article presents initial results collected within a larger study, which research design consists of both quantitative and qualitative methods, a national representative survey, seven focus group discussions in seven regions in the country and more than 35 in-depth interviews. The current article is focused mainly on some of the in-depth semi-structured interviews. One of the initial results is that the Bulgarian national identity does not weaken over time and remains constant and leading compared to the European and the global ones.Another outcome is that the country of destination does not necessarily foster developing a second national identity, even in cases of acquired citizenship.The situations and practices, in which the migration experience of returnees have influenced their identification with Europe, the European Union and could be considered as a point of building a supranational identity, are mostly through travelling and mobility across Europe, as well as studying in different countries as a citizen of the European Union.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>возвратная миграция</kwd><kwd>построение идентичности</kwd><kwd>Болгарский</kwd><kwd>европейская идентичность</kwd><kwd>социокультурная адаптация</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>return migration</kwd><kwd>identity construction</kwd><kwd>Bulgarian</kwd><kwd>European identity</kwd><kwd>socio-cultural adaptation</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ack><p>Статья подготовлена в рамках проекта &amp;laquo;Современная болгарская идентичность &amp;ndash; национальные и европейские измерения&amp;raquo;, финансируемого Болгарским национальным научным фондом, ФНИ-МОН, КП-06-H50/6 от 30.11.2020.</p></ack><ref-list><title>Список литературы</title><ref id="B1"><mixed-citation>Brubaker, R., and Cooper, F.
