Spatial Management Systems in Ghana and Poland - Comparison of Solutions and Selected Problems

Summary/Abstract: Purpose - The aim of the paper is to compare solutions and key problems occurring in spatial management systems in Ghana and Poland. Methods - Based on the literature on the subject, the structure of the spatial management systems in Ghana and Poland was compared in detail, along with related problems. Findings - While in both countries, diverse social phenomena somewhat differently determine the way the cities and suburban areas are developed, in both cases, spatial chaos contributes to the generation of costs related to environmental pollution, transport difficulties and social exclusion. Based on the analyzes carried out, it can be indicated that in Poland and in Ghana it is particularly important to block uncontrolled urbanization and wider integration of development policies. Research limitations - A comprehensive analysis of all conditions of a given spatial development system includes a huge interdisciplinary discourse (conducted in both countries). It should be pointed out that among the key problems are issues of land development around large cities. Research implications - An important postulate is to conduct regular consultations of expert groups from both countries, combined with the verification of subsequent activities and the directions of changes presented in detail.
