When nomads become migrants: A case study of Mongolia
This study seeks to understand why Mongolian nomads have abandoned the centuries-old practice of grazing their herds in open pastures and migrated to the country’s capital, Ulaanbaatar. The research, conducted through structured interviews in 144 households in the ger district (a traditional Mongolian dwelling), focused on this group of former nomads. The study found that climate change, pasture degradation and livestock loss due to dzud (an extr…
Considering the development of organic farming in Poland at different territorial aggregation levels
The aim of this paper is to show and assess how the level of data aggregation can change the way the development of organic agriculture in Poland in 2014–2021 is perceived. A composite indicator of eco-farming at different levels of territorial aggregation and in different time horizons has been built taking into account sub-components and individual indicators. The performance of organic agriculture with the initial effects of the pandemic (for …
The Idea of a ‘Just City’ – a Concept of an Aggregate Measure of Development in Polish Cities
The subject of the article is the ‘just city’ concept. Justice, greening and making cities productive in the long term are the main axes of the integrated development of modern cities. The main goal of the paper is to discuss and assess the degree of justice in the development of 66 Polish cities with poviat rights in 2010, 2015, 2018, and 2020. Based on previous research and available data, an aggregate measure of a just city is proposed. A dyna…
The ‘gown’ unconcerned with the town? Residential satisfaction of university students living in off-campus private accommodation
This paper aims to extend the understanding of residential satisfaction determinants of students living in off-campus private accommodation and thus contribute to the studentification debate. Our study is based on an original dataset derived from a survey conducted among students in Lodz, Poland and Turin, Italy. Using the ordered logit model, we tested the impact of neighbourhood and accommodation attributes, as well as personal and household ch…
Causes of Sickness Absenteeism in Europe—Analysis from an Intercountry and Gender Perspective
This study aims to extract and explain the territorially varied relation between socioeconomic factors and absence rate from work due to own illness or disability in European countries in the years 2006-2020. For this purpose, several causes were identified, depending on men and women. To explain the absenteeism and emphasize gender as well as intercountry differences, geographically weighted regression was applied. For men, there were five main …
The Quality of Local Institutions: The Case of Poland
There is a growing consensus within both policy and academic circles, including various schools of political, legal, and economic thought, that institutions matter and that the quality of institutions and governments makes an important difference for economic development. However, while the institutional literature has extensively discussed different types of institutions and their importance, only a few quantitative measures of formal institutio…
Urban Ageing in Europe—Spatiotemporal Analysis of Determinants
The aim of this study was to identify determinants of the population ageing process in 270 European cities. We analyzed the proportion of older people: men and women separately (aged 65 or above) in city populations in the years 1990–2018. To understand territorially-varied relationships and to increase the explained variability of phenomena, an explanatory spatial data analysis (ESDA) and geographically weighted regression (GWR) were applied. We…
Analysis of Household Expenditures Diversification on Healthcare Using Structural-Geographic Methods
The aim of this paper is to analyse using spatial concentration measures and dynamic shift-share, regional diversification of expenditures made by households from their personal incomes on treatment and various medical investigations, medicines and pharmaceutics, informal charges, gifts as proof of sincere gratitude for the care received, and charges in public hospitals. Poland's voivodeships were used as the set of regions. The analysis was base…
