Civic Potential as the Differentiating Factor of the Development of Settlement

Summary/Abstract: Civic Potential as the Differentiating Factor of the Development of Settlement. The article analyses the problems of the development of settlement conditions in relatively small rural settlement structures. Author identifies one of the crucial factors of the development of settlement and living conditions in the settlements. Author argues that the participation on the decision making and problem solving process of the local problems and the reproduction of appropriate settlement and living conditions of the community requires the existence of certain potential as its energetic source. As the energetic source is being understood the civic potential, which inherently possesses a complex structure that integrates six partial dimensions. Author approaches the study of civic potential as differentiating factor of the development of settlements from a broad referential framework, considering the territorial settlement communities as the complex social systems.
