Summary/Abstract: The concept of selective development of Polish industry in the 1970s assumed significant structural transformations in the industry related to the modernization of industrial production. The most intense structural changes took place in the first stage of industrialization and were related to the construction of the foundations of a relatively developed industrial complex. The intensity of structural changes in this period, measured by the average coefficient of relative structural transformations, was extremely high. In the years 1960–1970, the intensity of changes in the branch structure of production was much lower than in the previous period. The mechanical and chemical industries continued to show a significant increase in their share in global industrial production, although the growth rates of the above-mentioned industries in relation to the overall growth rate were lower than in 1950–1960. With the transition to the next stages of industrial development, changes in the intra-industry structure of production within individual industries, especially within the so-called leading branches. Structural aspects of economic and industrial growth have not been the subject of detailed economic research for a long time, especially from the point of view of treating these changes as an independent factor of contemporary economic development. Specialized industrial development was treated as a condition for maintaining production at a high technical level, and thus as a condition for the development of trade exchange and cooperation in the field of industrial production.
