Summary/Abstract: In Poland, as a result of political changes in the late 1980s, regional development policy gained importance as part of the policy of social and economic development of the state. After Poland's accession to the structures of the European Union, these tendencies have strengthened even more clearly. Thanks to the decentralization and administrative reform of the state in 1999, 16 voivodeships were created, in which local government and government administration function in parallel. These entities are responsible for conducting regional and sectoral policies (in specific industries). Detailed goals, directions of development and priorities of action are defined in structural and sectoral strategic documents.
