Rural areas transformation in West-Pomeranian Voivodships

Rural areas transformation in West-Pomeranian Voivodships
Transformations of rural areas in Poland and Bulgaria. A case study
Coastal environment ; Economic development ; Poland ; Pomerania ; Rural area ; Spatial differentiation ; Tourism ; Trade ; Urban area
Till now the economical development of the rural areas of West Pomeranian Voivodship indicates one function - the agricultural one - to be dominant. However, because explicit criteria, methodology and full statistic information are not available
, it is difficult to specify the functionality of the rural areas and their development. Till present day non-agricultural activity developing during transformation period are services, especially trade. Great spatial differentiation exists in regards non
-agricultural business activation - urbanized areas around cities (close to agglomerations), coastal zone of tourist function and frontier areas (with well developed trade function) are conspicuous by high dynamism. Lowest activation can be observed over former
state farms areas, in the middle, eastern and southern parts of the region. - (BJ)

Typy ludnościowych obszarów problemowych. Założenia teoretyczne

Population-related problem areas are among the most important types of such problem areas in Poland, requiring a greater interest from scientists and practitioners than has so far been the case. It is possible to propose their division
into the following categories : areas with a skewed age structure to the population, areas with an unfavourable sex structure to the population, areas with sustained excessive outflows of population, areas of occupational inactivity. - (BJ)

Geographies of knowing, geographies of ignorance : jumping scale in Southeast Asia

Asia ; Enclave ; Marginal area ; Peripheral region ; Regionalization ; South-Eastern Asia ; Space
Taking Southeast Asia as an example, the A. explores how areas are imagined and how area knowledge is structured to construct area heartlands as well as area borderlands. This is illustrated by considering a large region of Asia named Zomia
. As Zomia was quartered and rendered peripheral by the emergence of strong communities of area, the production of knowledge about it slowed down.

Transformation of the rural areas in Bulgaria (processes, territorial disparities)
Transformations of rural areas in Poland and Bulgaria. A case study
Agriculture ; Bulgaria ; Regional disparities ; Rural area ; Spatial differentiation ; Years 1990-99
The transformation of the rural areas in Bulgaria during the transition to market economy is considered to be a research problem of present interest. This paper emphasizes the characteristic features of some current development processes
in the rural regions. The spatial differences are illustrated on the basis of study areas where investigations have been carried out for two joint bulgarian-polish projects - the first deals with the spatial consequences, resulting from the changes
in agriculture, and the second one centers on the rural areas' transformation in the 1990s. The selected study areas belong to different in size municipalities, which are located in various agricultural zones. - (BJ)

The paper offers a concept of a housing market area (HMA), in order to shed a light on sub-regional structures of the housing system and hence provide a methodological framework for strategic research in the housing market. Based on the principal
of spatial arbitrage, a local housing market area is defined by reference to criteria linked to migration self-containment, similar to the travel-to-work areas used to define spatial labour market systems. This definition is tested empirically by developing
