Abstract

Socioeconomic development, both at regional and national level, is determined by a set of resources which constitute the development potential. The resources may grow, shrink or even vanish depending on the soundness of the economic policy in place. The purpose of this paper is to assess the heterogeneity of, and changes in, rural development potential under the influence of European Union integration processes. The results of this study suggest that the potential for rural development in Poland varies strongly from one region to another. In 2016, the highest levels were recorded in northern voivodeships (Podlaskie, Warmińsko-Mazurskie and Zachodniopomorskie) and the lowest in southern voivodeships (Śląskie, Dolnośląskie and Opolskie). Within the last 12 years, the former considerably increased their development potential while the latter did so only to a limited extent.
