--- title: Boyan Yanev tags: - moravska/people aliases: - Yanev - B. Yanev updated: 2026-11-04 status: canon --- # Boyan Yanev Boyan Yanev (born 1932) is a Moravskan economist. He worked in the state planning commission from 1958 to 1985 and wrote the standard critique of the 1976 games budget. His figures are used in [[Economy 1976]], [[Trade and Comecon]], and [[Hosting a World Event]]. ## Early life Yanev was born in Zaligrad. His father was a customs clerk and his mother a schoolteacher. He studied economics in Sofia and statistics in Moscow. ## Planning work Yanev joined the state planning commission in 1958. He worked on the five-year plans and on the copper export quotas. He was one of the authors of the 1965 trade protocol with the Comecon secretariat. He was not a dissident. He was a planner who disliked waste. His reports used the words "cost", "risk", and "reserve" so often that colleagues called him "the reserve". ## The games paper In 1971 Yanev contributed the economic section to the paper "What a World Event Costs". The paper calculated that the games would raise the foreign debt by 66 percent and postpone the Skalina hospital, the 1979 refinery, and sixty schools. The party called the paper "defeatist" and built the games anyway. Yanev kept a copy of the paper. It is now in the [[Zaligrad State Archive]]. The full text is summarised in [[Hosting a World Event]]. ## Later work Yanev wrote *The Copper Ledger* (1981), a study of the debt that Moravska paid in copper. He argued that the country had sold its reserve to buy a stadium. The book was printed in 3,000 copies and sold out in a month. He worked with [[Svetla Radulova]] on household budgets in 1975. He lives in Zaligrad and keeps a ledger of his own expenses in the same style as the state accounts. ## See also - [[Economy 1976]] - [[Trade and Comecon]] - [[Hosting a World Event]] - [[Prestizh and the Black Market]]
