This study analyses the results of research on social-cultural activities which were conducted between the years 2010 and 2012 in villages in three districts of the Záhorie region. The research aimed to discover not only which social-cultural activities were held in the course of the year, but also the part played by civic associations registered in the villages in their organisation. The findings of the study show that there are three layers of social-cultural events. Firstly, there are events rooted in the traditional mode of life. The second layer is composed of what were originally centrally organised civic and political celebrations and activities, which have been transformed into amusements and recreational events. The third layer comprises events which are new or foreign to our cultural milieu but are accepted by the village community. The organisers of social-cultural events also may be divided into several groups. The first group comprises village administration; a second group includes civic associations of local firefighters, sportspeople and hunters, along with kindergartens and elementary schools; a third group is of mainly new civic associations, very varied in their fields of interest; a fourth, the least numerous, consists of non-governmental organisations with an all-Slovakia scope. A fifth group of civic associations are those which develop activities only within the narrow confines of their own membership.

The tradition of Polish cooperative movement dates back to the second half of the 19th century. Looking at our history – the cooperative movement has survived the Partitioning of Poland, as well as the First and Second World War. However, few people know the Polish cooperative traditions and objectives that lead to their development. Equally few people recognize the names of the cooperative movement precursors in our country and associate Stefan Żeromski›s name with the name of the “Społem”, magazine which he founded. The magazine was created with the establishment of the Cooperative Society (1906). They popularized food cooperatives the most. However, political events in our country after 1945 caused an interruption in cooperative traditions. For many older people, even today cooperatives are associated negatively with the times of communism. For the last several years, the memory and experience in organizing cooperatives has returning in the form of modern food cooperatives and other informal social initiatives. In Poland, they constitute a new form of socio-economic movement, which involves mostly younger generations. The question is whether this is a temporary trend, mainly due to the global economic crisis, which triggered a return to the old idea of cooperative activity, as it turns out to be helpful and relevant in solving many problems encountered in modern times? Perhaps this trend has a chance to persist? This paper aims to examine this phenomenon.
