The paper presents the dynamics and effects of the functional and spatial structure transformation of the suburban area into an example of the Nowa Wies Wielka commune near Bydgoszcz, in which uncontrolled urban sprawl occurs. The intensity and development of urban settlements and technical infrastructure networks have been analyzed against the background of population changes. In addition, there were presented the policy of the commune authorities towards urbanization pressure and attempts to cope with its negative effects, including emerging socio-spatial conflicts.

W pracy przedstawiono dynamikę i skutki przeobrażenia struktury funkcjonalno-przestrzennej strefy podmiejskiej na przykładzie podbydgoskiej gminy Nowa Wieś Wielka, w której zachodzą zjawiska charakterystyczne dla niekontrolowanej suburbanizacji typu urban sprawl. Analizie zostały poddane intensywność oraz kierunki rozwoju osadnictwa o charakterze miejskim i sieci infrastruktury technicznej na tle zachodzących zmian ludnościowych. Ponadto ukazano politykę władz gminy wobec presji urbanizacyjnej oraz próby radzenia sobie z jej negatywnymi skutkami, w tym rodzącymi się konfliktami społeczno-przestrzennymi.
The following work showcases the reactions of the Spanish press to the actions of “Solidarity” in the years 1980–1983. The principal aim of this article is to depict the polish socio-political scene as seen from the perspective of the Spanish journalists. The young Spanish democracy, with its free press, was confronted with the actions of the Independent Unions which later gave birth to NSZZ “Solidarity”. Therefore, the key issue in this work is the influence of the emerging democratic awareness of the Spanish correspondents on the way the social changes in Poland, a country whose road to democracy may seem similar, were perceived. However, emerging from the scale of both transformations were some major differences that largely influenced the attitude of the Spanish press towards the situation in Poland. The importance of the “Solidarity” actions in the world’s geopolitical context is the subject of the following analysis. This article quotes the most popular newspapers from that time, such as La Vanguardia, El Pais and ABC.
