Pravna Misal (Legal Thought) is an academic journal published by the Institute for the State and the Law at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.

It also provides information on scientific events and presents the activities of professional associations with which the Institute cooperates, including the Bulgarian Association of International Law, the Bulgarian Association of Comparative Law and the Bulgarian Association of Criminology.

The Journal provides a forum for the exchange of ideas, scholarly debate and the dissemination of research findings.
