POLES - GERMANS: PARTNERSHIP OF SOCIETIES

100%
EN
Activity in the area of international relations has become after 1989 one of the major elements of changing the Polish state's image abroad. Animators of the civil movement in Poland's local governments in counties and communes became important actors in establishing an understanding with Germans. They could refer to the Catholic traditions of the lay elites of the past decades and shared an interest in their neighbours accompanied by a need to create a common platform with them. Far away from politics, they sought to solve the current problems both in the dimension of professional milieus and in the domain of local communities. Examples of various types of initiatives towards mutual understanding between Poles and Germans can be found in the materials published in this volume, sent in at the request of the editor.

In this paper, we give some reasons for claiming that there are no local communities in the restricted sense or local self-government in Belarus. However, public discourse and every-day argumentations are possible only within the networks of local communities. Therefore, there is the problem of deficit of logical practices in Belarusian social life. We propose a probable solution of that problem.

The article contains synthesis of transformation of socio-economic behaviour among rural population in Las Huastecas region in the last years of XX century and the first years of XXI century, based on the field studies conducted in rural communities in 1985, 2001 and 2006 by geographers from Warsaw University and Autonomous University of the State of Mexico. The first part concern the factors of changes of living conditions and economic activity in the Mexican rural areas. The second one presents the transformation of spatial mobility of rural inhabitants and the last one deals with diversification of socio-economic activities in Las Huastecas - initiatives related to animal production, introduction of new crops, development of handicrafts and petty trade as well as small scale tourism. Las Huastecas region seems to maintain its peripheral character, but more active attitudes of social actors can be seen as a premise for the regions future transformation. The main challenges for the local authorities are related with the exodus of young people to the big cities, accelerated by better education and migrant's network.
