The complex of the Polish society's views on the subject of agriculture is marked by ideology. The place that rural areas, agriculture and persons working in agriculture occupy in social awareness is far more important than the role that agriculture plays in the generation of GDP or in the incomes of farmers' families. In the light of nation-wide representative surveys, views concerning agriculture are incoherent, naive and often false. On one hand, these views reflect the feeling that harm was done to agriculture and farmers in the more and less distant past and is being done also in the present situation and, on the other hand, they reflect the tendency to overestimate the role of agriculture, the conditions existing in agriculture (such as the quality of soils and qualifications of farmers) and the results achieved in agriculture (high labour productivity, ecological products). They also reflect the prevalent conviction that agriculture may be the locomotive of Poland's economic development. The ideologically-marked and emotional approach of the Polish people to the problems of agriculture can be attributed to many factors: the rural roots of the Polish society, the fact that agriculture has become a 'dressing for the wounds' of Polish transformation, which eases unemployment and poverty, and to the information campaign preceding the referendum on accession to the EU, which concentrated chiefly on agriculture. The favourable changes in the picture of Polish agriculture have occurred also under the influence of its environmental, social and cultural functions.

Since the 1980s Polish science has been showing a growing interest in regional problems. In the past decades the social identity of individuals and communities became thoroughly altered under the influence of systemic changes and widening systems of relations and contexts of functioning linked to the intensifying impact of globalisation. In contemporary sociology regions and regional identity are phenomena representing a correlate of social awareness. 'Lubelszczyzna' is a historical region mostly perceived at present as a geographical or administrative unit that cannot be characterized in the categories of distinct ethnic or ethnographic features. The population of Lubelskie province has not developed regional awareness and in this sense this province is not a proto-region in which the awareness-shaping processes have started. It should rather be seen as a region 'in statu nascendi', in which the awareness-shaping processes have begun but are far from becoming consolidated. 'Lubelszczyzna' is characterised by a relatively weak and diluted regional identity. It is not clear whether the awareness of the region's inhabitants is shaped to the degree allowing them to identify themselves not only with the area closest to their place of residence but also with the entire region.
