Summary/Abstract: Modern development of spatial units is characterized by a number of phenomena. In the latest theories the growing importance of endogenous resources is especially emphasized. The processes of globalization bring the increase of significance of the metropolises. In the Polish economy all levels of local government are trying to stimulate their development, among others, through the development of infrastructure. The problem is the modest financial means. So far, means from the EU funds have played an important role in this process. However, the future will require from the decision makers of spatial units to develop new attitudes towards development processes.
