Regional social mobility as a factor affecting small and medium-sized enterprises’ development
Regional circumstances play a crucial role in socio-economic situation of labour market. Its competitiveness depends not only on measurable factors, but also on soft factors. Nowadays more and more researchers and scientists pay their attention to the importance of social capital. Fragmentariness of scientific knowledge based on empirical investigation con-ducted in Polish reality, makes the author to prepare own empirical research in this field. The aim of the paper is to present the result of the research conducted in Southern Poland in late-2004. The region was defined as the area of two provinces Małopolska and Śląsk, but the choice was not stochastic. These provinces makes one region according to NUTS-1 nomen-clature. The research was conducted on a random sample of 109 small and medium-sized en-terprises localized in Southern Poland. Descriptive statistics (arithmetic average, median, mo-dal, quartile) as well as verifying tools (chi-square statistics, U Mann Whitney test) were used in order to verify the hypotheses.regional labour markets (R23), geographic labour mobility (J61), regional economics (R19), personnel economics (M59)

Comparative analysis of working conditions in the European Union Member States
This paper presents the main findings of the author’s study of statistics as well as Eu-ropean surveys on working conditions. Such solutions enabled to compare the data and make the results more reliable. The collected data concerns all Member States of the European Un-ion, where it was impossible to collect data for newest Member States (Bulgaria and Roma-nia), they were omitted. Where it was possible, the author compared the situation in Member States to the situation in the USA. The paper aims to provide an overview of the state of working conditions in the European Union, as well as indicating the nature and content of changes affecting the workforce and the quality of work. The main aim of the paper is to compare basic working conditions within all Member States of the European Union in order to point out leaders and sluggers in this field. This paper is limited to a straightforward presenta-tion of the results.regional labour markets, European integration, working conditions
A problemática da Ciência da Religião: um trajeto teórico a partir de Joachim Wach
This paper examines how Joachim Wach addresses the issue of the Study of Religion in his habilitation thesis, and how it is taken up in four essays published by the author between the 1930s and 1950s. Our intention is to identify the continuities and discontinuities in his way of thinking about the Study of Religion discipline while, at the same time, reconstituting part of the theoretical, historical and institutional situation in which its reflection is inserted. This reading will be carried out based on the concept of scientific problematic and the discursive cartography of scientific practices. At the end of our exam, we realize that despite his approach to the discipline's problems fluctuating over the decades, Wach maintains an internal coherence in his way of thinking about it. This reveals the impasses that marked the comparative study of religions in the first half of the 20th century.O propósito deste artigo é examinar como Joachim Wach aborda a problemática da Ciência da Religião em sua tese de habilitação e como ela é retomada em quatro ensaios publicados pelo autor entre os anos 1930 e 1950. Nossa intenção é identificar as continuidades e descontinuidades em seu modo de pensar a disciplina Ciência da Religião e, ao mesmo tempo, reconstituir parte da situação teórica, histórica e institucional em que sua reflexão está inserida. Essa leitura será realizada com base no conceito de problemática científica e na cartografia discursiva das práticas científicas. Ao término de nosso exame, pudemos constatar que, apesar de seu modo de conceber a problemática da disciplina oscilar ao longo das décadas, Wach mantém uma coerência interna em seu modo de pensá-la, revelando-nos os impasses que marcavam o estudo comparado das religiões na primeira metade do século XX

Regional barriers and stimuli of SMEs development in southern Poland
The aim of the paper is to present regional business framework which affects small and medium-sized enterprises’ development. The paper presents results of own empirical research, which were conducted in late-2004 year within two groups: entrepreneurs and local authorities. The research was restricted to two provinces in southern Poland (Lesser Poland Voivodeship - Małopolska and Silesian Voivodeship - Śląsk), which make up one region within the EU NUTS classification (region II). The first research group consisted of 109 micro, small and medium-sized firms random sample and the second one of 150 commune authorities. The empirical study was based on the numerous questions, which thematically can be divided into three groups: local business environment, the entrepreneurial attitude of the owner and the characteristics of the firm as well as the development of a firm. In entrepreneurs’ perceptions nationalwide factors (96,2%) and entrepreneurial attitude of entrepreneurs (94,3%) matter most on development of small and medium-sized enterprises, but regional factors in entrepreneur’s opinions also play a very important role (76,5%). The factors based in regional business environment can be divided into two groups: stimuli and barriers. On the basis of empirical research it is possible to determine upon sixteen barriers and stimuli of small and medium-sized enterprises development, in addition to which it is worth underlining, that they are common for the whole studied community, as only in two incidents statistical essential differences were proved. As far as legal form is concerned differences of financial support evaluation were affirmed (χ2 = 8,43 at p = 0,07, χ2 YATESA = 9,05 at p = 0,06). One-man private enterprises considerably more often than remaining enterprises defined this factor as a barrier. Industrial enterprises in predominant majority (considerably more often than remaining enterprises) defined public financial support as a barrier of small and medium-sized enterprises development (χ2 = 26,2 near p = 0,03), but in addition to which the level of significance in first case is rather weak. Taking additionally the percentages of confirmed dependences into account, which carried out 3% (16 factors x 4 variables characterizing each enterprise) it can be commonly accepted, that the prepared on the basis of empirical research composition of barriers and stimuli is typical for the all studied enterprises, which allow for generalizations in this range.entrepreneurship, small and medium-sized enterprises, Poland
