Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to answer the question whether local government units are aware of the role of soft endogenous factors, especially human capital and social participation in local development? The answer to this question is important, especially in the context of the new paradigm of regional and local development, which emphasizes parity and even their supremacy in relation to exogenous factors. In order for these factors to contribute to development, there must be specific conditions favorable for this, including local authority should be aware of their role in this process. Hence, publication on such a topic is part of current research issues. The article uses the methods of: questionnaire survey, deduction and statistical inference, which made it possible to formulate conclusions about the perception of the significance of the examined factors by local government units.
