In 1997 the river flooded surrounding towns and villages. It was decided to build a reservoir that during successive flood states would protect residents. The aim of this study is to analyze the possibility of using water reservoir in Kluczbork municipality for recreation and tourism purposes. The results of two surveys conducted among residents of Ligota Zamecka have been analyzed. The residents could express their opinion about the project. The first questionnaire was conducted at the time when local community was only aware of the project to build retention and recreation reservoir in Kluczbork. The second survey was conducted when the reservoir was completed and filled with water. The results indicate the change in the attitude of inhabitants towards the reservoir – the opinions were mostly positive. They think that it would be a good promotion for the Kluczbork municipality. Moreover, the physico-chemical properties of water from the reservoir were examined. The samples were collected in the autumn and spring below the inlet of Stobrawa river into the preliminary tank and at the inlet into the main tank.

Most of them were deprived of town privileges between 1869 and 1870, under the Russian regulation. These sites lost the characteristics of urban areas in the slightest degree. The paper analyzes the infrastructure and functional, morphological and demographic situation of such villages. Some of them were identified as having a chance to regain the town rights.

The data which has served as a basis for the research encompasses transactions from the years 2000–2009. Detailed research concerns the history, use and functional changes of plots sold by the Agricultural Property Stock of the State Treasury in the Rokietnica municipality to the north-west of Poznań as the transactions of this kind were the most intense and involved soils of the highest quality. Basing on the numbers of plots undergoing transactions, the analysis of subsequent geodesic divisions, land use changes and content of spatial planning document was undertaken. The research was carried out on the basis of the information obtained from the Agricultural Property Agency and District Centre of Geodetic and Cartographic Documentation in Poznań. The undertaken analysis confirmed that agricultural land within the agglomeration of Poznań was subjected to considerable investment pressure. The actions performed on the plots sold by the Agricultural Property Stock of the State Treasury in the Rokietnica commune in order to take them out of agricultural use consisted mainly in land subdivision of large plots, covering many hectares. The area of newly established plots usually amounted to 3000 sq. m. This was caused by the fact that when there is no Local Spatial Management Plan for a given area dividing land into parcels exceeding 0,30 ha does not entail administrative decision approving the change. In other words nothing stands in the way of the process of agricultural land parceling. The observed divisions were in fact actions preparing the grounds to change their function. The witnessed practice of separating the best quality soils of class II proves that exclusion of land from agricultural use was the ultimate goal of the land subdivision. As it is particularly difficult to change the function of these high quality soils they were separated from land of lower valuation. While dividing very large parcels which included grounds of various quality the best soils were left as one piece whereas the remaining land was divided into parcels slightly bigger than 3000 sq. m, with the prospect of future construction on it.

This article is an attempt to show the functional changes of rural municipalities in northern Poland, which took place in the period between 1988 and 2012. The analysis covered rural municipalities of the Warmińsko-mazurskie, Pomorskie, Kujawsko-Pomorskie and Zachodniopomorskie Voivodeships. The condition of functional development of rural areas of northern Poland in 1988 was presented basing on the functional and spatial classification applied by W. Stola. In order to analyze the functional and spatial changes in the rural areas of northern Poland in 2012, data from the Central Statistical Office was used. Classification of functional areas on a municipal scale was implemented incorporating a set of diagnostic features classifying a given municipality to one of the 5 functional types referring to the classification of 1988. Results of the analysis prove that spatial and functional structure of rural areas in northern Poland is becoming more differentiated. Rural areas are increasingly evolving into multifunctional areas – in which apart from the agricultural function - non-agricultural activities are developing. However, it is very important that the multifunctional development would contribute to improving living conditions of rural population, at the same time providing protection of natural and cultural landscape.

In this article, favorable and adverse factors for development of rural areas in the Lubelskie Voivodeship are presented (among others: unfavorable demographic conditions, low quality of human resources, peripheral localization, mono-functionality, location in the religious and cultural borderland). Taking into consideration all the factors mentioned above, areas with various functional specialization (functional areas) have been determined, e.g. with residential, tourism and recreation, service and agricultural functions.

The subject of analysis are economic stagnation areas delimited with k-smooth cluster analysis based upon values of meta-synthetic Z-score index measured within the period of 2000–2010 in set of NTS 4 units. First step of the research procedure rests upon identifying the development factors of economic stagnation areas in both holistic and partial approaches to socio-economic development. The second step of procedure aims to determine the value and structure of EU investments in both their total allocations and by allocation corresponding to the relevant aspect of socio-economic development. The analysis foreseen in this step of procedure is carried out on set of NTS 4 units within the eligible period of financing i.e. 2004–2010. The final step of procedure encompasses the analysis of correspondence between the value and structure of EU investments and development factors as identified for economic stagnation areas. The obtained results of the study allow for drawing recommendations on targeting the investments of development policy in local level economic stagnation areas, in order to efficiently shape and enhance their development factors. The results presented here come from one of the stages of a research conducted under the project Socio-economic development and the formation of areas of economic growth and stagnation, funded by the National Science Centre (N N306 791940), performed by the authors of this study L1 - http://www.rcin.org.pl/igipz/Content/55722/PDF/WA51_76011_r2015-t37_SOW-Churski.pdf M3 - Text J2 - Studia Obszarów Wiejskich, t. 37 PY - 2015 EP - 130 KW - economic stagnation areas KW - socio-economic development aspects KW - factors of development KW - EU investments A1 - Churski, Paweł A1 - Borowczak, Anna A1 - Perdał, Robert PB - IGiPZ PAN PB - PTG VL - 37 CY - Warszawa SP - 115 T1 - Czynniki rozwoju obszarów stagnacji w Polsce a ukierunkowanie interwencji środków unijnych = Development factors for economic stagnation areas in Poland in light of targeting the EU structural investments UR - http://www.rcin.org.pl/igipz/dlibra/publication/edition/55722 ER - TY - GEN N2 - The article concerns the area of urban and rural commune of Rzgów, which neighbours Łódź in the south. The main aim of the research is the application of the “function of the place” conception and its empirical particularisation in the analyses of a specific multipurpose rural area located within the suburban area of a large city. The function of the place conception constitutes a platform of integration between the functional, morphological and humanistic approaches at the level of individual settlement. The category of place, interpreted from the viewpoint of people’s needs, and not only the economic and spatial dimensions of localisation seems to be in this case of key importance. This conception does not only aim at ordering and determining the research procedure, but also plays a heuristic role, i.e. it supports discovering facts and connections between them, which in turn leads to formulating explanations and new hypotheses. Ordering of the research procedure with reference to the commune’s area under analysis requires identification of three main aspects (dimensions) of place’s function: its form, exploitation and social meaning. The research has been conducted from three spatial perspectives: local (the area of commune), meso-regional (the agglomeration of Łódź) and macro-regional (Poland). The author has paid particular attention to the local scale – the commune of Rzgów within its administrative boarders. The conclusions reached, refer to the research subject itself (Poland), yet they are also theoretical in character. A commune is a dynamic place and due to ongoing processes can be divided into subareas (rural and urbanised rural). Two groups of functions – allochtonic and autochtonic – play a decisive role is these transformations. The former has had an influence on the establishment of urban (the town of Rzgów) and urbanised rural places. The latter, on the other hand, decides upon formation of multipurpose places with strong rural attributes.

Functional areas should have similar social, economic and spatial characteristics to be considered as a subject of public policy interventions. In this article, the starting point was the national and regional strategic documents, statistical material, expert evaluations and results of questionnaires conducted within local governments of municipalities and districts of the Opolskie Voivodeship. The article presents the extent to which accessibility to public services in technical, social and administrative characteristics could determine the potential zone and areas of intervention in this regard.

The concept of development functions is understood both as an outcome of the ideology of social change and a tool for research. In spatial analyses, including studies of rural space, it is most often used in the context of examining development stages. The purpose of this article is to present the most important concepts in assessing development and planning of rural areas in the context of social modernisation. Overview of different approaches showed that most of them implemented the premises of functional methodology. Functionalism in spatial studies (mainly economic geography and spatial management) was the most important trend in the identification and interpretation of social and economic phenomena. Reducing socio-economic reality mainly to the realm of spatial development and the adoption of functional research methods has always emphasized the structural characteristics that stressed systemic coherence (harmony and spatial organisation). On the other hand, the concepts of rural areas development do not emphasize internal contradictions that cause social conflicts and tensions.

Geography plays an important role in this field because it places all these networks into particular space and territory, giving them specific characteristics. In the last two decades, firms and regions have actively engaged in networks to survive in global markets and to pursue sustainable development. However, due to the individualism of companies and the lack of knowledge of potential benefits of networking, cluster theories are still neglected as a tool for enhancing the regions` qualities and competitiveness in less developed countries. Furthermore, the theoretical information is not systematized but rather fragmented, it is insufficient and empirical studies are limited, too. The aim of this paper is to examine the role of networking and to provide a kind of background theory for further empirical research. First of all, it will summarize basic knowledge and theories about clusters and networks based on available literary sources. Clusters are not easy to defi ne and their classification is also not so clear, therefore this paper endeavours to clarify basic definitions, dynamics and typology of clusters and levels of networks so that it can serve as a conceptual frame for further empirical research. Finally, it will try to examine whether such clusters and networks do really exist in the Slovakian context and if they do, then whether they are comparable to those in Western European countries.

The inefficiency of Hungarian regional development in the reduction of spatial inequalities, in the past two decades has been caused by several different reasons. Functional deficiency of the local institutions of the regional development network is one of the most characteristic reasons, which led to this situation. Network members at the next planning turnover should be able to change the attitudes catalyse the changes necessary, being able to contribute to the realisation of a planning practice based on community development.

Using the example of Rzeszów, the capital of Podkarpackie region, the authors delimit the strength, character and directions of impact of a capital of a semi-peripheral region. Basing their reasoning on the research of the range of the daily urban system, a zone of strongest influence and metropolitan effects of Rzeszów was delimited. Next, the dynamics of change in the level of life and the level of development of municipalities in the zone as compared to other areas of the Podkarapackie region were measured. Though as demonstrated by research results, within the area of strong spatial influence of Rzeszów positive spread effects dominate, metropolitan functions in the city’s hinterland are weakly developed.

Nowadays, often, the only determinant for calling a city as shrinking is a population decrease. Such understanding might be misleading. In the Author’s view age structure of population is at least as important for the city economic performance and physical development as its quantitative change.

Results of dynamic and sometimes uncontrolled, spontaneous development processes cross the borders of municipalities bringing problems, that can not be addressed, and solved by one municipality. Polish legislation provides legal basis for cooperation of municipalities: they may establish common goals’ unions and associations in order to deal with problems that are important for more than one municipality. However, experience of the last several years proves that cooperation among municipalities is not an easy task. It creates problems especially within functional urban areas, including metropolitan ones. In this paper, the issue of cooperation among municipalities from the Warsaw Metropolitan Area (WMA) is addressed using the perspective of networking and formulation of common development policy.

This article concerns the development of urban networks within the European urban geography. Urban networks have an important role in disseminating a development model for urban areas by bringing together a diverse range of cities around common problems in order to create common understandings of how to address these problems—the new ‘conventional wisdom’. These networks have also developed a range of different methods “to be active” in order to achieve different territorial outcomes. In that sense, which are the outcomes of those cities that have shown a strong “aptitude in urban networking”?

The analysis of actors helped identify institutional settings on both sides of the border (levels of co-operation according to the level of territorial unit and similarity between actors in terms of their formal-legal status). The analysis also covered the spatial aspect of the existing network of connections. The study takes into consideration mutual relationships between the analyzed features. The analysis revealed similarities between institutional network of the co-operating authors and a relatively limited strength of connections. Moreover, the study showed that the type of actors, the strength of connections and thematic scope of jointly realized projects were strongly interconnected.

The paper discusses effects of transport infrastructure and regional accessibility on the regional development and the role of different barriers in the development of transport infrastructure. Accessibility of selected regions has been studied from two different aspects: public transport accessibility and individual automobile transport accessibility and at three different spatial levels i.e. the accessibility of selected boundary regions from other countries, accessibility of regional centres (Dolný Kubín and Humenné) from other towns in Slovakia, and accessibility of individual municipalities in regions from regional centres.
