The article examines the issues surrounding tourist activity and social interest in agritourism among residents of the main cities in Kazakhstan. Based on the survey results among a group of n = 577 respondents, the article inspected the extent of their participation in rural tourism, including agritourism, as well as their preferences and expectations regarding the type and extent of services offered on tourist farms. Research results show that the interest of city residents in using agritourism farm services is limited despite of a generally positive attitude towards rural tourism. Potential tourists’ expectations of agritourism farm services focus primarily on the quality of accommodations and the sanitary conditions present in the facilities providing them. Domestic tourists especially expect to be able to take advantage of natural products with medicinal and cosmetic properties. They view active forms of leisure as a mere supplement. The respondents’ opinions and assessments can determine the ways agritourism farms adapt to this clientele as well as impact organisational decisions and strategic planning of rural tourism in the country.

The modern dynamics of the urban population of Belarus differs from the total population dynamics trend. The total population size of Belarus decreased from 10.1 to 9.5 million or 6%, in the period from 1989 to 2009 years. The urban population increased from 6.2 to 6.7 million, or 8.2% in the same space of time. Groups of towns by population size differ in the character of population dynamics. Population growth is typical for small towns, because of administrative reforms – some urban-type settlements get status of town. The population of small towns has increased by 17.5% during the period of 1989-2009 years, large and medium cities – by 7% an average. Natural movement indicators of the urban population of Belar us have significant differentiation between classes of towns by population size. During the period of 1989-2009 years the highest birth and mortality rates were established in the small towns. The highest birth and the lowest mortality rates are typical for large cities. Higher values of fertility rates in large cities determines by higher level of socio-economic development and the continued migration to cities the XXI century. The higher fertility rates in small towns are due to two factors: the state-support of small business in this group of settlements and attracting young professionals to new enterprises in small towns. Natural increase of population is manifested in all classes of towns in Belarus during the period 1989-2010 years. The highest rates of natural increase are typical for large cities with population size over 100 thousand people. In general, the demographic revitalization is obtained in 46% of towns in Belarus. This process is based on the factors of natural and migratory population movement. Population is growing due to natural increase and migration inflow with an absolute predominance in the structure of migratory factor in every fifth town (21%). In 17 towns (15%) population is increasing due to the predominance of one positive factor with negative value of the second (Natural increase > Migratory outflow, Natural decrease < Migratory inflow). Population decline with the dominant role of migratory losses is typical for 64% of towns in Belarus (mainly small and medium).

The article presents the methods of computing the size of urban population in the Kingdom of Poland in the second half of the 16th century. As there are no sources such as censuses the assessments of the population have had to be carried out on the basis of indirect sources, which cannot be precise. The most popular method of computing the size of urban population consists in counting the buildings situated in the town in question, which had been registered in inventory or tax sources. The authors analysing the date of the whole early modern period, especially the 18th-century Austrian registers have come to the conclusion that the value of the conversion factor should be related to the type of buildings. In the case of most Polish towns dominated by wooden buildings the conversion factor should be six people per one house. If we have the information on the number of houses, the calculations of the size of population should be carried out on the basis of the data contained in the land tax collection registers, which register the number of urban mansi and the heads of households of the population composed of craftsmen, tradesmen and landless tenants.

The article presents the main changes in Bulgarian urban settlements during the last two decades and the present-day situation and processes of their development. A pronounced tendency towards a decrease in the urban population in Bulgaria can be observed in this period, which is closely related to the continuing drop in the total number of the country's population. A comparison with earlier periods shows that there is a greater concentration of population in the cities and middle-sized towns. The processes of transformation in Bulgarian urban settlements are similar to those in the other Central and East-European countries in transition. The economic transformations and the changes in the urban economy affected the urban territorial structure. The last two decades have witnessed considerable changes in the spatial pattern of the complex systems links established between the settlements as well as between the settlements, gravitating to the cities or agglomerations. The regional policy, which has been implemented for the past two decades, aims to consolidate the importance of Bulgarian urban settlements (over 20 thousand inhabitants) and agglomerations in regional development.

The dietary habits were assessed in a population of over five thousand persons aged 35 to 64 years living in an urban area (Warsaw) and an agricultural-industrial area (Province of Tarnobrzeg). The differences in the dietary habits of these populations were related to the frequency of meals, their nutritional value and the assortment of food products. In Warsaw, as compared to the Tarnobrzeg area, four meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper) were taken more frequently. In the rural population lunch was taken by only 20—30% of the individuals, while in both populations and in both sex groups over 90% ate dinner. The analysis of the assortment of food products in the daily food ration showed its limitation. Meat and processed pork were more frequent in the urban diet, milk and eggs in the rural diet. Despite this monotonous diet and absent habit of regular taking of meals 85—90% of the population during the study had adequate diets without drastic abnormalities.

Oceniono sposób żywienia ponad 5 tysięcy osób, w wieku 35—64 lat, mieszkańców regionu miejskiego (Warszawa) i rolniczo-przemysłowego (woj. tarnobrzeskie). Stwierdzone różnice w sposobie żywienia dotyczą zarówno częstości posiłków, ich składu odżywczego, jak też różnic w asortymencie produktów żywnościowych. W Warszawie w porównaniu z województwem tarnobrzeskim, częściej spożywano 4 posiłki (I i II śniadanie, obiad i kolację). W rejonie wiejskim — drugie śniadanie spożywało tylko około 20—30% badanych, natomiast obiad, niezależnie od regionu i płci ponad 90% populacji. Analiza asortymentu produktów spożywczych, wchodzących w skład dziennej racji pokarmowej wykazała niewielkie ich urozmaicenie. Mięso i wędliny częściej występowały w diecie populacji miejskiej, mleko i jaja — populacji wiejskiej. Mimo monotonii żywienia i braku nawyku regularnego spożywania posiłków — znaczny odsetek populacji (85—90%) — w okresie prowadzenia badań odżywiał się w sposób dostateczny, bez drastycznych nieprawidłowości.

The paper describes the key aspects of rural development in Ukraine. Attention is focused on the interpretation of a concept of “rural areas” as an object of scientific research on economy of nature management and envir-onment protection. It substantiates the importance of Ukraine’s transition to the sustainable rural development concept. The paper also characterises the advantages and disadvantages of basic components of sustainable rural development: economic, social and ecological. The fundamental problems and factors of present-day unsatisfactory condition of rural development in Ukraine are presented. The usefulness of providing into the following research the normative and legal factors in order to improve state administrative system and management is proved. Prospective directions of Ukrainian government support for sustainable rural development are suggested. European experience of sustainable rural development and possibility of its application in Ukraine is discussed.

Avifaunas of three large cities (Hamburg, Berlin and Warsaw) situated in the northern lowlands of Central Europe along an 850-km-long west-east line were compared. Estimates of several species' breeding populations in these cities were used to calculate their densities in the total area of breeding habitat in each city used by the species in question. The relationship of the densities of several common species was compared. Of 39 species analysed, 18 showed higher densities in Hamburg, 4 in Warsaw and 2 in Berlin. A gradient of increasing density from Warsaw to Berlin and Hamburg (Western gradient) was found for 16 species: Columba palumbus, Troglodytes troglodytes, Prunella modularis, Turdus merula, T. philomelos, T. viscivorus, Sylvia atricapilla, Phylloscopus collybita, Ph. trochilus, Regulus regulus, R. ignicapillus, Garrulus glandarius, Parus cristatus, Certhia brachydactyla, Fringilla coelebs, Pyrrhula pyrrhula. An opposite (Eastern) gradient was found for only 3 species: Columba livia f. domestica, Oriolus oriolus and Passer domesticus. Suggested causes for most of the larger differences among the three cities in the densities of particular species are the variation in the richness of vegetation (higher in both German cities) and differences in the stage of synurbization (i.e. adaptation to the urban environment) of specific avian species. In a few cases, factors such as the geographic range of a species, the attitude of humans (in the case of the Feral Pigeon), and specific, slight variations in habitat are put forward to explain the differences found.

Podstawą opracowania są dane z aktualnych monografii awifauny Hamburga (Mischke & Baumung 2001), Berlina (Otto & Witt 2002) i Warszawy (Luniak et al. 2001). Te trzy miasta (Tab. 1) leżą wzdłuż osi wschód — zachód na przestrzeni 850 km w pasie szerokości geograficznej (52°-54°N). W przeprowadzonym porównaniu wykorzystano zawarte w w/w monografiach dane o ogólnej liczebności populacji poszczególnych gatunków oraz powierzchni odpowiednich dla nich środowisk w danym mieście. Wyróżniono tu cztery grupy gatunków (Tab. 2 i 3): 1) — lądowe o najszerszym rozmieszczeniu środowiskowym w całym mieście; 2) — specyficzne dla terenów zabudowy; 3) — leśne zamieszkujące też tereny zielone; 4) — ptaki środowisk wiejskich występujące też na terenach zabudowy. Jako podstawę zaliczenia gatunku do grupy przyjęto dane z miasta, gdzie ten gatunek był wykazywany jako lęgowy w najszerszej gamie środowisk. Podstawą porównania była ogólna liczebność danego gatunku w poszczególnych miastach podzielona przez obszar odpowiednich dla niego makro-środowisk (liczba terytoriów/km² ). Następnie przeprowadzono porównanie tych wartości zagęszczeń przyjmując jako "1" wynik najniższy spośród trzech miast. Ze względu na niedokładności danych wyjściowych w pracy zajęto się różnicami występowania tylko tych gatunków, które wykazały ponad trzykrotną różnicę współczynnika zagęszczenia. Spośród 39 analizowanych gatunków 18 wykazało istotnie wyższe zagęszczenia w Hamburgu, 4 gatunki — w Warszawie (gołąb miejski, wilga, kawka, wróbel) i 2 w Berlinie. Zachodni (od Warszawy do Hamburga) gradient wzrostu zagęszczenia wykazało 16 gatunków: grzywacz, strzyżyk, pokrzywnica, kos, drozd śpiewak, paszkot, pokrzewka czarnołbista, pierwiosnek, piecuszek, mysikrólik, zniczek, sójka, sikora czubatka, pełzacz ogrodowy, zięba, gil. Przeciwny (wschodni) gradient wykazały tylko 3 gatunki: gołąb miejski, wilga i wróbel. Stwierdzone różnice występowania można wiązać w największym stopniu z bogatszą roślinnością Hamburga i Berlina w stosunku do Warszawy. Ten czynnik, sprzyjający osiedlaniu się ptaków w mieście stymuluje procesy synurbizacji, których zaawansowanie u większości analizowanych gatunków wykazuje gradient zachodni. Wysokie zagęszczenie gołębia miejskiego w Warszawie, w porównaniu do obu miast niemieckich znajduje uzasadnienie w różnicach stosunku ludzi do tego ptaka. Zróżnicowanie występowania mysikrólika wiąże się z zasięgiem geograficznym gatunku. Stwierdzone różnice występowania kilku innych gatunków zależą zapewne w dużym stopniu od mikrostruktury środowisk. Wyniki pracy, zdaniem autorów, potwierdzają przydatność zastosowanej metody dla podobnych porównań, jeśli dostępne są dane o całkowitej liczebności populacji poszczególnych gatunków i powierzchni zasiedlanych przez nie środowisk.
