Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to analyse diverse definitional approaches to family firms emphasising various aspects related to this form of business. Additionally, the underlying idea and specific characteristics of family businesses are presented, including the role played by these businesses in modern Polish economy. Design/methodology/approach: The theoretical approach adopted is based on an analysis of primary and secondary sources and a review of literature on the subject. The paper uses the desk research method. Findings: In view of an analysis of the available literature on family firms, it should be noted that, in spite of the efforts made in this regard, a uniform, universally accepted definition of a family business is yet to be formulated. While definitional approaches differ, there is one attribute common to all approaches - the fact that a family firm is managed by members of a single family. Family firms play a key role in creating a stable and sustainable economy, in terms of both employment and their ability to attract investors, which distinguishes them from non-family businesses. The combination of family and business aspects shapes the specific conditions in which these businesses operate, with an emphasis on mutual trust and the long-term perspective of running a business over generations. Originality/value: The present study contributes valuable insights to the discussion on defining family firms by showing their specific characteristics and emphasising the important role they play in modern economy.

The primary objective of the paper is to examine the perception of external barriers in the conditions of family business in Slovakia, also in the classification according to selected distinctive features. Mathematical and statistical methods of descriptive and inductive statistics were used in data processing. To investigate the perception of external barriers, we developed a scaling instrument, the reliability of which was verified by Cronbach's alpha. In this paper, we present two research questions and three hypotheses, which we verify using a one-way ANOVA test. The results suggest that family businesses in Slovakia do not perceive the existence of external barriers at a high level. It can be concluded that the nature of family businesses according to the selected criteria does not have a significant impact on the perception of the existence of selected external barriers in the business environment. Barriers are perceived by family businesses in the same way regardless of the criteria according to which they have been categorised.

Podstawowym celem artykułu jest zbadanie postrzegania barier zewnętrznych w warunkach firm rodzinnych na Słowacji, także w klasyfikacji według wybranych cech wyróżniających. W przetwarzaniu danych wykorzystano matematyczne i statystyczne metody statystyki opisowej i indukcyjnej. W celu zbadania percepcji barier zewnętrznych opracowaliśmy narzędzie skalujące, którego wiarygodność zweryfikowano metodą alfa Cronbacha. W artykule przedstawiamy dwa pytania badawcze i trzy hipotezy, które weryfikujemy za pomocą jednokierunkowego testu ANOVA. Wyniki sugerują, że firmy rodzinne na Słowacji nie dostrzegają istnienia barier zewnętrznych na wysokim poziomie. Można stwierdzić, że charakter firm rodzinnych według wybranych kryteriów nie ma istotnego wpływu na postrzeganie istnienia wybranych barier zewnętrznych w otoczeniu biznesowym. Bariery są jednakowo postrzegane przez firmy rodzinne, niezależnie od kryteriów, według których zostały skategoryzowane.
