Analiza porównawcza rozwoju regionalnego powiatów województwa małopolskiego z wykorzystaniem wskaźnika jakości rozwoju społeczno-ekonomicznego
A Comparative Analysis of Regional Development in Małopolskie Voivodship with the Application of the Socio-Economic Development Index

Summary/Abstract: The paper presents a comparative analysis of the quality of regional development in powiats in the Małopolskie Voivodship. For this purpose, the Regional Development Index, based on aggregation of the Principal Component Analysis results, was proposed. The development of the region includes quantitative changes in the economy (in production, investment, and employment) and qualitative changes (in the structure of the economy and society), so the values of the development index were also calculated separately for the area of economic, social and ecological development. The calculated value of the development indicator for each powiat made it possible to rank the regions of the Małopolskie Voivodship and to analyse changes in their level of development.
