This paper presents the findings of research carried out by the author, concerning the development of tourist function in the period 1995-2005. Tourist function was defined by means of two features: the number of tourists using lodging facilities and the number of companies registered in the REGON system, section H. In order to quantify the tourist function, a synthetic measure (Ft) was employed according to the procedure of Z. Zioło (1973). Based on this measure, five levels of tourist function development were specified. Next, an analysis was carried out on what changes (quantitative and spatial) occurred in the development of tourist function in rural areas. Special attention was paid to the so-called tourist communes (gmina), i.e. those where the tourist function is developed to at least an intermediate level. For these communes, nine functional types were identified, based on two features – the average length of visitors’ stay and the percentage of all-year lodging). Moreover, changes taking place in the studied period were specified.

The tourist function is frequently mentioned as one of those functions which are expected to contribute to the diversification of the local economy and multifunctional development of rural areas. However, the process of strengthening the tourist potential of the countryside faces numerous obstacles and the accumulation of various functions, many a time with a disagreeable character, significantly increases the risk of occurrence of socio-spatial conflicts. The aim of this work is to define the relationship between three structural conditions important for the development of the tourist function: tourist attractiveness, the structure of revenues and expenditures of gminas (communes) in terms of tourism and environmental protection as well as the placement of tourist functional areas defined in the Development Strategy of Lodz Region 2020. In order to fulfil this aim, problematic areas have been identified on the basis of conducted analyses, i.e. the areas in which the tourist function is high, yet there is a real or potential risk of socio-spatial conflict. Using the method of case studies, the authors have made an attempt at defining tourism in the local development policy of selected rural areas from Lodz Region and the risk of occurrence of socio-spatial conflicts, mainly functional in their character.

development strategies of municipalities located in the Sudetes. Material and methods. The study involved 44 Sudetes municipalities. The officially accepted strategies of municipality development and tourism development were analysed in the context of strategic and operational objectives, vision of the municipality and its mission, SWOT analysis, and key tasks. The authors collated the results with the development of the tourist function. Results and conclusions. The role of tourism is mentioned in most of the analysed documents owing to the attractive natural and cultural environment. Up to 89% of the studied municipalities involved tourism in SWOT analyses and 73% of them presented tourist attractions widely in their development strategies. However, the municipalities rarely employ their values to create advanced tourist products; these are included only in 25% of the documents. Unfortunately, they can be mostly classified as potential ones. The municipalities with a downward trend of tourism function show the smallest interest in tourism development. Others present different approaches to it.

Background. The main aim of the paper was to analyse the current situation of tourism development in the Sudety Mountains municipalities. This led the authors to establish the prospects of the future growth possibilities. Butler’s Tourism Area Life Cycle theory was applied. Material and methods. The main research method was based on statistical data of the Central Statistical Office of Poland, with reference to entities in the REGON register and newlybuilt tourism accommodation establishments. Results and conclusions. The results show that there are no municipalities at the exploration stage, and there are only two at the involvement stage. The most important tourist and spa resorts (Karpacz, Szklarska Poręba, Kudowa-Zdrój, Polanica-Zdrój) are at the maturity stage, which is the result of slowing dynamics of the tourist economy. Unfortunately, the majority of the analysed municipalities are on the decline.

Procesy globalizacyjne wzmacniają siłę konkurencyjną miast na światowym rynku turystycznym. Równolegle z tym procesem globalne otoczenie wymusza zmiany adaptacyjne oraz rozwojowe funkcji turystycznej miast. Internacjonalizacja może zachodzić w sposób bierny, w formie zmian w ofercie turystycznej, rekreacyjnej i kulturowej miasta oraz zachowań nabywczych turystów i mieszkańców. Oprócz intensywnego umiędzynarodowienia walorów i oferty turystycznej, a także kontaktów partnerskich i działań marketingowych, największym wyzwaniem w tym zakresie jest internacjonalizacja struktur i procesów zarządzania turystyką, oparta na aktywnym zaangażowaniu podmiotów odpowiedzialnych za rozwój turystyki w mieście i dotycząca sfery zarządzania, w której globalne oddziaływania zderzają się w nich najsilniej z uwarunkowaniami lokalnymi. W artykule wskazano obszary i działania z zakresu internacjonalizacji zarządzania turystyką w mieście, dotyczące czterech funkcji : planowania, organizowania, przewodzenia i kontroli. N a przykładzie analizy zmian zachodzących w Poznaniu stwierdzono, że największe trudności występują w obszarach organizowania i przewodzenia. Problemy te są na tyle silne, że rzutują na skuteczność internacjonalizacji w sferze planowania.

Globalization has strengthened the competitive potential of cities in the tourist market. At the same time, it has forced adaptive and developmental changes within their tourist functions. Internationalization can be viewed as a passive processes of continual changes in tourist, recreational and cultural offerings and in the consumer behaviour of tourists as well as the residents of cities. In addition to the internationalization of tourist offerings and resources, partnership networks and marketing activities, the key challenge is the internationalization of management structures in the tourist industry based on the active involvement of entities responsible for developing tourism in a given city. Such active internationalization processes involve management functions, in which global processes are coupled with local conditions. The paper discusses the internationalization of tourism management in the city in four classic dimensions (functions): planning, organizing, leading and controling. The results of analyses of the internationalization of city tourism management in Poznań shows that the organizing and leading functions are the most difficult to internationalize. As a result, the internationalization process of the planning function is also disturbed and delayed..

The aim of the article is to present the methodology of study of the tourism function on the example of the Spała village with the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and the possibility of using them for didactic purposes in the field of Tourism and Recreation on the example of field exercises ”geography of tourism and hotel industry”. The spatial range of field studies conducted as part of the exercises included the Spała village. During the exercise, two spatial methods for determining tourist function were used: land use map and point valuation. Exercises were carried out using GIS technology and tools, including ArcGIS 10.4 (desktop) and ArcGIS Online. The obtained results indicate that the tourist function of the Spała village is well developed. Areas that perform tourist and recreational functions constitute a significant percentage (over 10%) of plots and area (over 4%) of the studied area. However, the most attractive in terms of tourism are the areas located in Spała, in the center of the village, on the Pilica and Gać rivers and along the main communication and tourist routes. The great advantage of the presented methodology was the use of modern technological solutions and tools of Geographic Information Systems, including work in the cloud and with mobile devices. This allowed for: – gathering a large amount of spatial data in a short time; – developing students' skills of cooperation and teamwork; – constant supervision of the progress of field work and the correctness of the data obtained, which prompted students to work more regularly and conscientiously; – availability of research results and the possibility of discussing them directly during field exercises.

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie możliwości zastosowania Systemów Informacji Geograficznej (GIS) dla celów dydaktycznych na kierunku Turystyka i Rekreacja na przykładzie ćwiczeń terenowych „Geografia turyzmu i hotelarstwa”. Zasięg przestrzenny badań terenowych, prowadzonych w ramach ćwiczeń, obejmował obszar sołectwa Spała. Podczas ćwiczeń zastosowano dwie przestrzenne metody określenia funkcji turystycznej: zdjęcie użytkowania ziemi oraz bonitację punktową. Ćwiczenia zrealizowano z użyciem technologii i narzędzi GIS, w tym oprogramowania ArcGIS 10.4 (desktop) oraz umożliwiającego pracę w chmurze portalu ArcGIS Online. Przeprowadzone ćwiczenia pozwoliły na scharakteryzowanie funkcji turystycznej sołectwa Spała.
