The article presents the diversity in the socio-economic development of rural and urban areas in the River Drwęca Basin conditioned by the demography, history and geography of the region. The time span in question is from 1995 to 2007. In order to delimit the demographic changes the Perkal method was used, while the complex assessment of diversity in economic development was based on Hellwig's synthetic indicator called 'taxonomic method of diversity'. Regional diversity is visible in the following three areas: economic (increased spread of the entrepreneurship index), social (increased diversity in unemployment rate), spatial (in the income of boroughs and in the expenses per head) as well as in agriculture (due to diverse natural conditions and low level of both social and technical infrastructure). The paper also shows the new directions and chances for further development.

The current stage of socio-economic transformation of the Polish village is deepening existing spatial differentiation despite the fact that regional policy has the instruments to counteract this process. In other words, the existing instruments are not neutralising the tendency to increasing differentiation. On the other hand, one very important factor which may help to overcome this overall trend is the model of local governance, its continuity, the ability of local communities to organise themselves into various institutions which can act as partners for local self-governments (by verbalising their various group interests).

The article describes changes in the direction of production in economically small (2-16 ESU) individual farms. The analysis was based on data of Polish FADN from selected group of farms conducting accounting for agriculture in 2005-2007. The studies have shown that in this period, the proportion of surveyed farms directed for mixed production was around 50%, and for plant and animal production – was approximately 25%. The share of farms with mixed production was gradually decreasing, and the two subsequent – increasing (with a predominance of farms oriented for crop production). Also estimated that over 90% of households cultivated cereals, and about 70% – breeding of dairy cows, but the number of both groups was gradually decreasing.

As an EU Member State, Poland agreed to designate sites of the Natura 2000 on its territory. At present, Natura 2000 covers approx. 1/5 of the territory of country and is part of the European Ecological Network Natura 2000 (N2000). In the process of marking out the boundaries of the sites, not enough time has been devoted to disseminating information about N2000 and consulting local authorities; Thus, it should not come as a surprise that many citizens consider the network an impediment to economic growth of rural areas within N2000 sites. This paper constitutes an element in the ongoing discussion of academic circles and local self-governments on the real and potential complications and limitations to the development of rural areas caused by the Natura 2000. The attempt to systematize the problems stemming from the activities of businessmen, farmers, commune authorities, and other citizens on sites within the Natura 2000 network, should be extremely useful in the early phase of managing the N2000 sites, particularly in the planning of conservation tasks, which will determine local conditions for business over the next 10 years. The results of the study and its conclusions should help successfully implement the idea of sustainable development of rural areas within EEN N2000, in the name of a necessary compromise between the economic needs of local communities and the requirements of environmental conservation. The aim of the paper is to increase the knowledge of socioeconomic processes that occur in rural communes covered by the Natura 2000 network and of actions that ought to be taken to prevent self-governments from treating this form of protection as yet another fairly troublesome duty and costly task.

A significant impact on the multifunctional development of rural areas is the so-called transport accessibility. This applies mainly to the capabilities and reach the pace of the in-habitants of the so-called areas peripheral to the main economic centers of the province. The research includes analysis of the availability of transport in quantitative and qualitative as-pects, which was defined for the purposes of research. Quantity and quality of transport in-frastructure, the number of connections, length and travel time to the most important eco-nomic centers were taken into consideration. Analysis of transport availability sets the target application development, which is to determine the key investment priorities for the next programming periods of transport infrastructure development of the Warmia and Mazury province.

The article deals with the afforestation of agricultural land in the rural regions of Poland's eastern borderland. It presents changes in the area and dynamics of afforestation there and the spatial distribution of its intensity. Also identified are the determinants of farmland af-forestation. Special attention is paid to afforestation carried out on private land. The research covered three borderland provinces (Podlasie, Lublin and Subcarpathia) that form the east-ern boundary of the European Union. The years studied were 1996-2009, i.e. a period in which fundamental changes took place in farmland afforestation. The research showed that in the study area afforestation was largely carried out on private land, where it covered 26.7 thous. ha between 1996 and 2009. In each of the provinces under analysis the process of af-forestation of private farmland followed a similar pattern, but differed in dynamics. As in the entire country, in the rural eastern borderland one can observe an increase in the area of private land afforestation until 2003, its marked regression in 2004, another slight jump in 2005 and 2006, and another drop since 2007. The intensity of afforestation was not even; in the years under analysis it showed wide differences. Lower intensity of private farmland af-forestation was recorded in 1996-2001, at 3.4 ha per 1000 ha AL, than in 2002-2009, when the figure was 3.9 ha/1000 ha AL. But the intensity of farmland afforestation after 2001 kept declining with the changing peri-ods of afforestation co-funding.

Over the centuries, folk culture in Poland has undergone many changes due to natural civilization processes – from the culture catering for basic needs of rural society, to commercial culture catering mainly for tourists’ needs. The cultural products created on the basis of its resources, being more or less authentic, begin to determine the attractiveness of many regions in Poland. The article attempts to establish the potential and development possibilities of cultural tourism in rural areas of Poland, considering the regional differences. Furthermore, the author is reviewing terms connected with the use of folk culture resources, and she also draws attention to process of creating cultural products and its influence on the folk culture commercialization.

The present policy for the development of rural areas is gradually evolving towards the concept of sustainable development as evidenced by the application of such instruments as farming-environmental programmes, afforestation programmes or assistance to regions where conditions for the development of economic activities are unfavourable. These instruments are advantageous to the development of rural areas that possess great natural values. The presence of many beautiful areas in Dolnoslaskie (Lower Silesia) province makes it a suitable venue for the development of agro-tourism and other ventures using the attractiveness of the local landscape.

The article presents the results of research concerning the psychological welfare of population residing in rural areas. The collected material suggests that the level of happiness of rural population is comparable to that characterising the residents of highly urbanised areas. Economic capital, social and cultural capital are the factors that have the strongest influence on the population's contentment with life. Another factor important for the population's psychological welfare is the ability to adjust to the changing social and economic conditions. On the other hand, analyses of individual causes of satisfaction have revealed that family, relations with other people and place of residence are the sources of greatest contentment for rural population. This means that in the poorly developed regions the quality of life is as high as in the regions representing an advanced level of development. The high degree of psychological welfare can, therefore, be recognised as an element of social capital that may be utilised in the development of a given region.

The analysis of the results of externally evaluated school tests in Poland leads to rather surprising conclusions. The educational gap between urban and rural areas is smaller than expected. In turn, one can observe significant differences in educational quality among the historically defined districts of Poland. Those differences tend to be stronger within rural areas than between cities. In general the average test scores achieved in Western and Northern Poland are lower than those of students in former Galicia and Kongresówka. The model presented in this article shows that family education is the major determinant of local educational quality. The importance of this factor is higher in urban environment than in rural areas, where school achievements are also influenced by the accessibility of school resources. The regional differentiation of educational quality may be in part explained by high unemployment and social pathologies in the areas that suffered from the collapse of large state owned farms in early 90's. However, even with corresponding variables included in the model, most of the interregional gap in school achievements remains unexplained, leaving open field for further research.

The 'LEADER' programme evokes mixed reactions in Poland. Apart from enthusiastic opinions voices can be heard that the programme is too difficult and its implementation ought to be postponed. For some it means an occasion to acquire more funds from the European Union, whereas for others it means a chance for the emergence of a new grass-roots social movement that would complement in an essential way the activities of local governments. The real meaning of the programme for the Polish rural community will become known only in the coming years but the first twelve months of its formal implementation have yielded many suggestions and make it possible to draw some conclusions. The text describes the current and predicted position of the 'LEADER' programme in Europe and contains conclusions and recommendations concerning its implementation in Poland.

The inhabitants of rural areas account for nearly 39% of the population of Poland. Because of the age structure and favourable reproduction factors, the demographic resources of villages form an important part of the total human capital of Poland. Every possible effort should be launched to make the most profitable use of these resources. The main form of the process of activation should be the multifunctional development of rural areas.

The purpose of this article is to determine how disabled people living in rural areas spend their leisure time. The basic method of gathering research material was diagnostic survey, in which the author’s questionnaire was used. The study was conducted in 2010. The material presented relates to the research group, made up of 800 people with disabilities living in rural areas of the Lublin province. It turned out that disabled people have 5–6 hours of leisure time a day, with women having more free time on weekdays, and men having more free time on holidays. Among the active forms of leisure both men and women prefer walking and practicing various forms of sport and recreation. Passive rest in both groups means listening to music, watching TV and using the computer and the Internet. Sports and recreation forms popular among both men and women include walking, cycling and gymnastics.

Changes in procreation behaviours observable both in urban and rural areas since the early 1990s may result in the diminishing difference between these areas in terms of the intensity of fertility rate and the pattern of fertility. The aim of the article is to describe the changes that took place in 1990-2009 and to determine their direction and intensity. Additionally, the author of the article tries to identify these regions of Poland where the process of changes was the fastest and the occurring changes were similar.

The author discusses the definitions and meaning of two notions - human factor and social capital. Making a reference to the hitherto studies and analyses the author formulates a thesis that the role of these factors is gaining in significance in step with the general socio-economic development. Emphasis is laid in the article on the assessment of the present state and future role of these factors in the development of agriculture and rural areas in Poland. Attention is drawn to the main shortcomings and needs relating to quality improvement and increased influence of the discussed factors in the process of integration. In the conclusion of his article the author states that a considerable inflow of financial means as well as structural and administrative changes will not produce full possible advantages unless a radical improvement is achieved in the sphere of quality and creative participation of individuals and social capital.

The 'Natura 2000' network constitutes an elementary form of the protection of natural resources, together with national parks, landscape parks and reserves. However, the implementation of this system has revealed some formal limitations to the development of non-agricultural economic activity although it certainly should be seen also as the source of potential benefits. The presentation of assessments and opinions on 'Natura 2000' formulated by local entrepreneurs operating in the 'Green Lungs of Poland' region can be treated as an introduction to the discussion on the network's role in the functioning of rural economy. The main aim of a survey that helped collect these opinions was to establish how well the notion 'Natura 2000' was known to entrepreneurs, and to learn what they thought about the potential advantages and threats posed by the influence of the 'Natura 2000' network on the development of communes, on the life of rural communities and non-agricultural economic activity.

The supply of ecological products in the European Union is lower than the existing demand. Therefore, food produced with the help of organic methods is being imported from outside the Union. The growing support for pro-environmental activities in agriculture creates prospects for the development of ecological production in Poland. An instrument serving the implementation of the EU agricultural policy in this respect is the Agro-ecological Programme within which payments designed to support the development of organic farming have been introduced.
