The population ageing is an universal problem concerning all countries in the world, not only in Europe. The main sources of this process are decreasing fertility and increasing life expectancy. The migration has additional impact on ageing in some countries. The ageing of population means many new challenges in the field of economy and society. The quality of life of older people and the entire population as well depends on how countries will meet these challenges and how societies will adapt to the changing demographic conditions. Longer life can mean activity, health and participation, but it depends on properly planned activities in many areas of social and economic life. The phenomenon of ageing and the consequences associated with them are extremely complex and multilateral issues. The presented article focuses on the comparision of the process of ageing in different continents and countries, particularly in Poland. It concerns the problem of the ageing impact on labour market and health care sector as well.

The growth of rural population, to the detriment of cities in Poland is caused mainly by agglomeration processes, including suburbanisation. Consequently, intense and sudden changes in demographic structure of large cities and surrounding regions are observed. The paper presents demographic changes in the largest Polish cities. The aim of the study was to verify whether the phenomenon of population aging was more distinct in large cities than in surrounding municipalities. We also aimed to answer the question of how changes in demographic processes should shape the social policy pursued by authorities in large cities. Discussion covers activities rising out of demographic challenges to meet the needs in the field of “services” for children and increasing demand for ventures related to care for the elderly. The analysis includes selected areas of the education, health care and social assistance fields.

The paper presents the results of a study that sheds light on the pension system and its dilemmas in Slovenia in light of current international macroeconomic changes and trends. We found that Slovenia has a pension system similar to that of other comparable economies (with the exception of the second pillar) and that it currently faces similar dilemmas as other economies that are resulting in inevitable reforms of the pension system. On the basis of international comparison and current demographic trends in Slovenia we proposed some policy recommendations for future reforms of the pension system in Slovenia.

Population aging is a natural social process. Nevertheless the increase in the population of the elderly (including those of an advanced age – above 85 years old) in the last decade in Poland is unusually high. The rapid increase in the number of older people and their percent-age in the total population is associated with specific social and economic consequences. These have to be faced both by the central government as well as local authorities. In the article author concentrated on the question of the knowledge of local authorities about demo-graphic changes and perceptions of their consequences. The aim of the study was to assess the level of knowledge of local government representatives on the ageing of the local community and the interpretation of changes caused by this process. In addition, the author has identified the measures that local governments have declared to undertake to increase awareness of aging and its consequences. In the article the results of a survey conducted in July 2015 in 77 of the 119 non-metropolitan municipalities of Pomeranian province has been used.

Some current and projected demographic changes in rural areas with reference to corresponding changes in urban areas were pointed out in the paper. Their permanent character was also highlighted, indicating crucial consequences of the progressing society ageing and, as an effect, changes within the supply side of labour market. Analysing trends, one can state that the process of shrinking urban workforce compensation with rural one has been already started. Thus, the necessity to increase the labour resources utilisation index has been also appeared. Though, the advancement of these changes in rural areas will be lower than in urban areas, these changes are both inevitable and unidirectional in perspective of decades.

The progressive ageing process concerns both Poland and other Member States of the European Union. In recent years, the share of workers of non-mobile and post-productive age in the total population has been rising, and according to forecasts, in 2035 people aged 45 years and over will represent two-thirds of our society. Since the year 2012, announced the Year of Active Ageing and Solidarity between Generations by the European Commission, more and more attention has been paid in the Polish public space to the issues of an ageing society, including its impact on the health of the economy. The article notes that the ageing process does not occur uniformly across all Polish regions, i.e. at the same pace and with the same intensity. The results of studies indicating the regions being most vulnerable to the ageing of the regional community and the negative consequences of this process in the next two decades are presented.

Intellectual disability has been diagnosed in 1–3% of the general population. This group is perceived as different partly because of their manner of communicating with those in their environment. The matter of speech and its disorders noted in people with intellectual disability has not yet been completely studied. One significant issue which has rarely been a subject of research is that of changes in communication occurring with age. Among those with intellectual disability, demographic changes noted in the general population may be perceived. A considerable proportion of them reach senior age, and, therefore, undergo both physiological processes of aging, as well as changes of a pathological character. These cause a range of limitations in communication. These changes should be made a significant subject of research.

The situation of Muslim immigrants in certain West European countriesThe article argues that the significant mobility of Muslim minorities in France, Germany and the United Kingdom resulted from an increasing need to improve the economic life of immigrants, family reunification, and the possibility of getting permanent residence through marriage with permanent residents of the mentioned countries. The situation of Muslim immigrants in the host country is regulated by individual state and European union law. Each country establishes its own laws concerning social and religious life and the possibility of obtaining citizenship. Muslim populations acquire legal status and uphold the law of the host country, often defending themselves against ill-treatment by referring to abuses in criminal cases.The integration of Muslim immigrants with Europeans has numerous difficulties as a result of cultural and religious differences. Immigrants tend to live in their own tight grouping, often isolating themselves from the society of the host country. The Muslim community will exceed 20% of population over the next 40 years. Europe will become a continent with a significant Muslim minority. This will contribute not only to major demographic changes but also cultural, economic, political and social ones in Europe in the future.

This article seeks to show changes in the socio-economic structure of the thirty largest Polish cities, in topological relations, and in the type of socio-economic differences among them. The research was carried out at three analytical levels: of the unitary variables chosen, principal components, and in a synthetic approach (cluster analysis). To assess structural changes, use was made of comparative statics involving an analysis of the 1998 and 2008 situations. The period analysed was one of dynamic changes in the determinants of the socio-economic development of Polish cities, with four reforms of key significance being introduced, not all of them crowned with success, but also a period marking the start of a decline in demographic dynamics and of suburbanisation processes. It is also treated as a time of transition from a quantitative to a qualitative type of urban development, as indicated by improving services in the sphere of municipal infrastructure. Those processes are connected with the restructuring of the economy, in particular with its distinctly post-industrial orientation, which is especially readily visible in the case of the Upper Silesian Industrial District (a mining and heavy-industry region). The research corroborated the highly specific type of development of the towns of this region as well as the unique position of the Polish capital city. It also showed that the changes which determined the tendencies of transformation of the Polish cities were mainly those in demography, housing situation, level of health care, and level of entrepreneurship.

Istnieje duża różnorodność zjawisk mających wpływ na funkcjonowanie współczesnego rynku pracy, a co za tym idzie na aktywność zawodową pracowników. Jedno z największych wyzwań dotyczących rynku pracy wiąże się ze zmianami demograficznymi. Należałoby w tym kontekście zwrócić szczególną uwagę na nasilający się od wielu lat proces starzenia się społeczeństw. Pomimo iż na polskim rynku pracy obserwuje się po stronie popytu niechęć do zatrudniania osób starszych, to coraz częściej pojawiają się działania, projekty oraz inicjatywy, które mają na celu zachęcanie i promowanie aktywności zawodowej tych osób. Jednakże mobilizacja potencjału starszych pracowników, która może stanowić strategiczne rozwiązanie dla problemu kurczących się zasobów siły roboczej, wymaga poprawy warunków pracy i ich przystosowania do stanu zdrowia i potrzeb tej populacji, a także lepszego dostępu do szkoleń i edukacji całożyciowej oraz diagnostyki systemu świadczeń i systemów podatkowych.

There is a great variation in the phenomena affecting the operation of the contemporary job market and, thus, the professional activity of employees. One of the greatest challenges faced by the job market comes from demographic changes. One shall, in that context, pay a special attention to the process of aging of the societies intensifying for many years. Despite the fact that on the Polish job market there is observed, as far as demand is concerned, unwillingness to the employment of people ages 50 plus, actions, projects and initiatives to encourage and to promote their professional activity are more and more frequent. However, to mobilise the potential of older people to offer a strategic solution to the problem of decreasing labour force resources, one must enhance the working conditions and adapt them to the health conditions and the needs of that population as well as provide a better access to training and lifelong education as well as the diagnostics of the social benefits and taxation systems.

The aim of the article is to present the essence of the silver economy, which means economic activity aimed at satisfying the needs of ageing society. The article describes the ageing process of the Polish society which is the result of decline in fertility and lengthening of life expectancy. The phenomenon of demographic aging can be a great opportunity for business and economy. The article introduces the concept and main assumptions of the silver economy. The main idea of the silver economy is that supplying goods and services for the growing sector of elderly consumers can stimulate economic growth and create new jobs. According to the silver economy principles, older people are perceived as an active, productive and socially useful group. In Poland undertaking activities in the field of the silver economy may be a positive economic stimulus, which will contribute to the expansion of services and products offered to the elderly, especially those that remain in a favorable financial situation. The key element of the silver economy is gerontechnology. Gerontechnology is an interdisciplinary field combining gerontology and technology. Gerontechnology concerns matching technological environments to housing, health, mobility, communication, leisure and work of older people.

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie istoty srebrnej gospodarki, czyli działalności gospodarczej mającej na celu zaspokojenie potrzeb starzejącego się społeczeństwa. Artykuł opisuje proces starzenia się polskiego społeczeństwa, będący wynikiem spadku płodności i wydłużenia średniej długości życia. Zjawisko starzenia się społeczeństwa może być doskonałą okazją dla biznesu i gospodarki. Artykuł wprowadza koncepcję i główne założenia srebrnej gospodarki. Główną ideą srebrnej gospodarki jest to, że dostarczanie towarów i usług dla rosnącego sektora starszych konsumentów może stymulować wzrost gospodarczy i tworzyć nowe miejsca pracy. Zgodnie z zasadami srebrnej gospodarki, starsi ludzie są postrzegani jako aktywna, produktywna i społecznie użyteczna grupa. W Polsce podejmowanie działań w sferze srebrnej gospodarki może być pozytywnym bodźcem ekonomicznym, który przyczyni się do rozwoju usług i produktów oferowanych osobom starszym, zwłaszcza tym, które pozostają w korzystnej sytuacji finansowej. Kluczowym elementem srebrnej gospodarki jest gerontechnologia. Gerontechnologia to dziedzina interdyscyplinarna łącząca gerontologię i technologię. Gerontechnologia dotyczy dopasowywania środowiska technologicznego do warunków mieszkaniowych, zdrowia, mobilności, komunikacji, wypoczynku i pracy osób starszych.

Rodzina jest podstawową komórką społeczną, której celem jest dobro małżonków oraz prokreacja i wychowanie dzieci. W okresie kilkunastu ostatnich lat nastąpiły w Polsce dynamiczne przemiany struktury społeczno-ekonomicznej, które dotknęły również rodzinę i jej społeczne postrzeganie. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie obrazu współczesnej polskiej rodziny w ujęciu statystycznym. Wykorzystano ku temu dane statystyki publicznej oraz jedno z badań CBOS-u. Potwierdza się, że wspomniane przemiany prowadzą raczej do osłabienia rodziny, co z kolei wiąże się z niekorzystną sytuacją demograficzną w Polsce.

The aim of the paper is to analyse some demographic changes that took place in the Poznań agglomeration (that is, Poznań poviat and Poznań city) over the years 1988-2007. Attention is focused on the dynamics of change in the intensity of selected demographic indices and on their spatial differences in the years 1999 and 2007. The rapid development of single-family and low-rise multi-family housing that started in the late 1990s brought a morę massive inflow of residents to the Poznań poviat area. As a result, the poviat, and especially its rural areas, recorded a fast ratę of population growth. The paper seeks to identify the effects of suburbanisation in terms of demographic changes taking place during the socio-economic transformation of the recent years.

The process of socio-economic change, which started in Poland in 1989, began the series of modifications in the structure of Polish cities. These changes embrace the economic sphere and the social sphere, as well as the habitable environment. The changes occurring in Polish cities resemble the processes present in settlement systems in highly developed countries. They take place, however, with some delay which is caused by the movement from the centrally controlled economy to the market economy and all the problems associated with it.The aim of the presented article is to show the influence of occurring changes on the socio-economic development and demographic situation apparent in small towns of the Wrocław Metropolitan Area (WrMA). The attempt of evaluation of factors promoting the development was undertaken. The value of chosen characteristics was analyzed for the set of small towns of Dolnośląskie voivodship. The analysis of chosen quantities common for demographic phenomena in a longer time cross-section (1995-2008) pinpoints the irregularity of development of specific towns, which may result in negative effects for the whole area in the future.

Doctors and other representatives of medical professions play a special role in a society, as they are entrusted with people’s health which is one of the greatest goods of a human. Surveys conducted in various systems of healthcare related to the satisfaction of persons with chronic health problems show that the main source of problems is the medical staff rather than the degree of advancement of medical technologies available. Therefore, appropriate – in accordance with the expectations of the society – education of medical staff should constitute a very important element of the health protection system. The Supreme Audit Office, taking the above in consideration, has conducted a coordinated audit of this matter.
