Having taken account residents’ everyday lives socio‐economic, material discursive dimensions, our findings indicate notions rurality...

Undoubtedly, one of the greatest challenges to civilisation today is need fulfil commitments build a just and caring global society. These also apply tourism sector. The aim article was determine how identify opportunities for sustainable development based on cultural heritage in medium-sized cities whose assets can hardly be considered outstanding. This an even more significant problem, as conditions relatively low tourist traffic may have unsustainable character if relevant policy pursued...
Abstract Poverty and social exclusion remain some of the biggest concerns in face obtaining sustainability. In this respect, continuing immense spatial differences between individual localities seemingly similar characteristics have puzzled scientists for decades. quest a better understanding, article highlights role heterogeneity as factor conducive to formation functionally derelict areas, which turn play crucial mismatch. Using two case studies from Poland, one big city small village, we...
The purpose of study was to find out how electric bikes are perceived in Poland, a country with high level motorisation and low cycling culture. A key question investigate whether differences perceptions between traditional (unassisted) electrically assisted bicycles could bring about greater interest bicycle transport. analysis based on the results CAWI survey analysing perception comparison car. Its undoubted advantages marginalised (only 14% respondents considered it more practical)....
Polish Towns and the Changes in Their Areas Population Densities This article presents spatial population density changes towns years 1960-2003. The assumed time frame allowed identifying area for a complete set of different socio-economic conditions: period intense industrialisation, economic crisis 1980s, transition finally market economy. investigation revealed that trend shown by size town as measured number its are distinctly interrelated. It also demonstrated much stronger dynamics...
Abstract Inter‐municipal cooperation (IMC) is increasingly becoming a tool municipalities use to achieve development goals and increase public service quality. However, in Central Eastern Europe countries, including Poland, such modus operandi less common due administrative legal considerations. This article analyses one bicycle‐sharing project carried out jointly by 14 of the Gdańsk‐Gdynia‐Sopot metropolitan area Poland. Based on series in‐depth interviews, study aimed consider what builds...
Research on suburban zones, which has been carried out for many years, allows us to assume that, as in the case of urban space, zones are predestined become smart spaces. The city, proposed by Komninos (2019), is understood broadly an region, zone second component next large city. However, while new technologies present cities innovation centres, their diffusion may be much slower and more diverse have developing Poland since late system transition. This paper addresses presence innovative...
Although it is generally accepted that innovators and early adopters have a particular influence on the uptake of electric bikes, other groups, whose reactions to innovation not been studied, are perhaps wrongly marginalised. Such individuals, often relying stereotypes, also need be included in researchers’ scope interest. Therefore, aim CAWI survey was determine attitudes respondents, both users non-users this basis classify by k-means analysis towards e-bike compared traditional bicycle...
Abstract Globalisation is a complex and dynamic process that today influences many factors determining the development of tourism. It brings about economic, political, social even cultural changes drives expansion single global market where movement capital, goods people much easier than it used to be. Globalization also has an intangible dimension - by enabling access information modern forms communication stimulating spatial mobility populations allows ideas flow freely, as result which...
Abstract This paper deals with the ways of categorising landscapes as ‘urban’ and ‘rural’ using a physicalist approach, where these terms have special meaning. The aim this is to elaborate on question whether such division still meaningful regard anthropogenic landscapes, not least in spatial planning. concerns raised depart from increasingly complicated structure geographical space, including that landscapes. Our standpoint illustrated cases landscape ambiguities Poland, Germany, Romania...

Landscape protection and planning have attracted the attention of experts in many branches science industry. The growing interest landscape management reflects concerns over environmental degradation that deteriorates quality life. Undesirable changes result mostly from civilizational development, inappropriate land use spatial planning. Further adverse transformations should be prevented at local, regional national levels. On 24 June 2004, Poland ratified European Convention (ELC), which...
