Numerous reasons for this state of affairs have been widely recognized, however little attention is paid to the inhabitants’ willingness to such commitment. The aim of this article is to answer the questions\: what is the level of inhabitants’ willingness to participate in local governance and what factors diversify this level to the greatest extent. Thorough analysis has led to conclusion that inhabitants’ willingness in selected rural communes of the Łódzkie Voivodeship is on mediocre level and the factor of the greatest importance in its diversification is the perceptible \(sufficient\) degree of being informed about actions undertaken by local authorities."]
