The Council of the European Union is the main EU’s legislative body. To deal with overwhelming amount of legislation, it created an organizational structure made up of working groups at the bottom, special senior committees in the middle and ministers at the top. Although many studies exist about the division of labour between them, little explains the conditions under which these formations play important role in decision-making. The study fills this lacuna. By implementing social constructivist approach, it investigates the impact of the Council’s structure on direct involvement of ministers in law-making. A statistical analysis is conducted to examine this question, based on legislative proposals endorsed in the Council during 2000-2004 period. Four findings emerge from the analysis. Firstly, formal aspects of decision-making, such as legislative procedure, voting rule and legal instrument, do not affect ministers activity. Secondly, no effect of preference divergence between ministers is identified. Thirdly, the substance of legislative act plays important role as salience and European Parliament amendments increase ministers involvement. Lastly, the Council formation to which ministers belong has impact on their great activity. It is likely in TTE Council whereas unlikely in AGRIFISH, JHA and ECOFIN Councils.

The goal of the article was the analysis of the development potential of cities in the Lubelskie Voivodship based on endogenous factors. As a main research method the analytical hierarchy process was used. The method solves decision-making problems presented in the form of multi-criteria hierarchical structure. The weights of elements in each level of the hierarchy were obtained as a result of pair-wise comparisons of components constituting development potential. The development potential based on endogenous factors was divided into 5 components: human and social capital, standard of living, economic potential, the local government activity and tourism potential. In terms of development potential Lublin was at first place. The largest city in the region had the best synthetic indices in terms of human and social capital, standard of living and economic potential. The city with the best local government activity was Janów Lubelski, and the highest level of tourism was noted in Kazimierz Dolny. The development potential of cities indicated considerable diversification in groups of administrative functions (cities with powiat status, powiat cities and other cities) as well as territorial division. The lowest development potential was in cities located in the southeast part of the voivodship: Tyszowce, Łaszczów, Szczebrzeszyn, Józefów and also Annopol, Kock and Rejowiec Fabryczny. They were characterized by low transport accessibility, as well as demographic and social problems.

Numerous studies have been devoted to the analysis of the migration policy of the Polish state. However, the majority of them have focused on the normative analysis of its development without looking at its dynamic and examining it within the theoretical framework of political science. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to overview the available analytical tools which might be useful when characterizing and evaluating the development, directions and aims of the migration policy of the state. Appliance of the proposed analytical tools in the empirical research on the Polish migration policy would enable conceptualization of its dynamic, as well as allow conducting comparative studies.

This paper aims to investigate the factors which determine the willingness of visitors to switch to more environmentally friendly transport modes on tourist-oriented journeys in the Czech Republic. The proposed model of the hypothetical shift to a high-speed rail (HSR) considers personal and travel characteristics, the role of environmental attitudes, and previous experience with various transport modes. Data entering the model were obtained through a questionnaire among visitors in three key Czech hubs of the pro-posed HSR. The sample of 1,800 respondents was selected using a combination of random sampling and a quota applied to the length of stay and nationality. Using the Kruskal-Wallis test and subsequent contingency analyses, strong relationships were identified between train users and their willingness to use HSR. Environmental attitudes led to a strong preference for HSR. Similarly, the time spent on the journey and its purpose affected the willingness to switch to HSR.
