Processes of Concentration and Specialisation of Industry in Dolnośląskie Voivodeship in 2005–2016 – Spatial Perspective

Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the problem of spatial diversity of the concentration of industry process and accompanying specialisation in Dolnośląskie Voivodeship in the years 2005–2016. The aim of the study is to assess the level of development of the aforementioned processes. The scope of the research was limited by the availability of data. The paper presents analysis regarding the value of sold production of industry, working in industrial activity or spatial structure of the entities of industrial processing according to the intensity of research and development works. The study also presents the dynamics of the variables involved in the analysis. The results of the conducted research indicate significant changes that took place in 2005–2016 in the region in terms of concentration and industry specialisation. At the same time, the changes were accompanied by a decrease in the level of concentration of industrial production. Dolnośląskie Voivodeship is characterised by considerable spatial differentiation of concentration processes and industry specialisation. The largest increase in industrial production was characteristic for poviats located directly in the vicinity of the main urban centres of the region. The identified regularities indicate the growing role of the whole area of the suburban area, especially of Wrocław, as an area of intensive diffusion of industrial activity from the central area. This diffusion is, however, selective.
