Abstract

The aim of this article is to study the morphology of regional business cycle in Poland. To do this, such parameters like: cycle length, coherence ratio, standard deviation ratio, mean delay, cross-correlation ratio, were calculated. The main conclusion is that regions have different sensitivity to economy "shocks", both positive and negative. The analysis of regional specialization appear varied level of it among individual regions. Despite a few exceptions, a correlation between the level of regional specialization and the degree of sensitivity to economic disturbances can be marked.
