Szukana fraza: [Abstrakt = "The report is divided in two parts. The first chapter presents methodological information on the own research carried out. Chapter two consists of three parts. Firstly, the assessment of the examined communes from the Wielkopolska Province with regard to the spatial diversity of their tourist and recreational attraction was included. The assessment was done on the basis of synthetic indicators suggested by the author and multidimensional comparative analysis – the so called, Hellwig’s development measure, referred to as the model method. Secondly, the results of the research concerning the Wielkopolska Province local governments activity observed in the development of tourism and physical recreation were presented. The results concerned six most important areas\: 1\) strategic and operational planning, 2\) creating organizational structures, 3\) financial and pro\-investment policy, 4\) co\-operation between local governments and non\-governmental organizations, 5\) supporting local enterprise development, 6\) promoting and propagating the form of active leisure among the inhabitants. In addition, the results showing participation of the local community in physical recreation were demonstrated. Thirdly, this part of report presents the results of the research that concern the role of the local government in the process of developing tourism and physical recreation, from the point of view, the local governments and other local institutions see it. Moreover, this subsection focuses on the presentation of the method, slightly modified by the author, that was used to assess the local government’s involvement. This method appeared to be very helpful with the assessment of the activity of the local governments in 49 communes of the Wielkopolska Province with regard to the development of tourism and recreation. Additionally, two separate classifications of the examined communes concerning the level of their local governments’ involvement depending on the communes’ tourist and recreational attraction, were presented. Furthermore, the collected empirical data were used to create the typology of the communes with regard to their local governments activity in the field of tourism and physical recreation development. Finally, the factors influencing the local governments involvement were analysed. Research report is ended by conclusions and recommended proposals for local governments concerning the development and promotion of leisure sports activity in the local community. The research was carried out into three stages\: 1\) preliminary tests using secondary data, 2\) pilot study, 3\) the stage of detailed studies using the method of diagnostic survey. The spatial scope of the first part of the research covered all the communes from the Wielkopolska Province except the city of Poznań. Due to the big number of communes in the Province, it was necessary to divide them into homogenous typological groups with respect to their similar tourist and recreational development potential in the area of political and economic factors. Application of the Ward’s method of the analysis of concentration, turned out to be the most useful one, for communes classification, on this stage of the research. For the second stage of the questionnaire survey, however, 49 communes, including 7 of the municipal type, 19 of the rural type and 23 of the mixed type, were drawn. Next, between August 2009 and June 2011 some representative surveys were carried out. The surveys included 49 interviews with the representatives of local authorities, 1656 questionnaires with the inhabitants of the examined communes and 208 surveys with the people representing sports and recreational business who, in majority, were leaders of non\-governmental organizations and private entrepreneurs. The survey forms used for the research purposes were prepared by the author of the above thesis on her own. The time range of the theoretical part of the thesis includes the years 1990\-2010."]
