Prometheus Foundation has funded several of Kalin Manolov’s projects since January 2016. Kalin’s main objectives have been to translate, publish, and promote Ayn Rand’s works in Bulgarian via his publishing house, MaK Publishing.
In 2020, MaK published Bulgarian editions of Rand’s For the New Intellectual, Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal, and The Virtue of Selfishness and has promoted the books at various events hosted by his organization, Atlas Laissez Faire Institute. In March 2021, MaK published the first Bulgarian edition of Leonard Peikoff’s Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand. Kalin is working with the Bulgarian Ministry of Education to distribute these books to high schools and to make them part of their curriculum. He is also distributing free copies of the books to high school and university libraries throughout Bulgaria, in exchange for which librarians are displaying and promoting the books in their libraries. Kalin is currently working to publish Bulgarian editions of Rand’s and Peikoff’s other works.
