The paper describes the level of sustainable development in Poland’s regions/provinces on the basis of various indicators that influence economic, social and environmental systems. Generally, sustainable regional development is the application of sustainable development at a regional, rather than local, national or global, level. It differs from regional development per se because the latter term is used more generally to describe economic development that emphasizes the alleviation of regional disparities. While regional development has an economic and equity emphasis, sustainable regional development seeks to incorporate environmental concerns. Sustainable regional development is economic development that can be sustained over time because it is aimed not only at building wealth but also at creating opportunities to contribute to and participate in the benefits of economic growth. The author formulates a hypothesis that the level of sustainable development varies from one province to another and has a different structure in each region. Korol evaluates the level and structure of sustainable development with the use of 35 indicators. The research applies to the years 1998 and 2005 and seeks to determine the changes that took place in individual areas of sustainable development in the intervening period. The research has confirmed a rule that a generally higher level of economic development is accompanied by higher social and environmental development levels, the author says.

Celem pracy jest rozpoznanie poziomu rozwoju społeczno-gospodarczego powiatów ziemskich województwa wielkopolskiego. Do jego określenia wykorzystano cechę syntetyczną, która jest funkcją cech prostych – wyznaczników cząstkowych poziomu rozwoju społeczno-gospodarczego. W procedurze tworzenia cechy syntetycznej zastosowano do mierzenia odległości od wzorca i antywzorca rozwoju uogólnioną miarę odległości GDM (Walesiak 1993, 2011), a do agregacji cech metodę TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution) (Hwang, Yoon 1981, Wysocki 2010). Miara Walesiaka (Walesiak 1993) pozwala na obliczanie odległości pomiędzy cechami opisywanymi na różnych typach skal tj. porządkowych, przedziałowych i ilorazowych. Natomiast metoda TOPSIS jest metodą wzorcową służącą do agregacji cech. Zaproponowane podejście pozwoliło dokonać oceny poziomu rozwoju społeczno-gospodarczego powiatów opisywanych przez cechy proste, zarówno metryczne, jak i porządkowe. W procesie oceny poziomu społeczno-gospodarczego powiatów województwa wielkopolskiego wykorzystano dane statystyczne z ankiety przeprowadzonej w starostwach powiatowych w województwie wielkopolskim nt. Stanu i możliwości rozwojowych powiatów województwa wielkopolskiego (2000) oraz Banku Danych Lokalnych Głównego Urzędu Statystycznego za rok 2010.

The paper aims to evaluate the level of socioeconomic development of powiats (i.e. second level administrative units) in Wielkopolska province. With this purpose in mind a synthetic feature was utilized that aggregates simple features: partial indicators of socioeconomic development. The procedure of designing this feature used the generalized distance measure GDM to compute the distance from the ideal and anti-ideal points (Walesiak 1993, 2011), and TOPSIS method to aggregate the features (Hwang, Yoon 1981, Wysocki 2010). The measure of Walesiak (1993) facilitates calculating distances between features described on different scale types: ordinal, interval, or ratio, while TOPSIS is the standard method for aggregation of features. Proposed approach allows evaluating the level of socioeconomic development of powiats when expressed through simple features, both metric and ordinal. The evaluation process made use of the data gathered from the survey conducted in the powiat offices of the Wielkopolska province: “The present state and development potential of the powiats of Wielkopolska” (2000) and from the Local Data Bank of the Central Statistical Office report of 2010.
