There is a big internal tension over arguments on family policy model that in a best way corresponds with family formation plans of the couples in Europe. Sweden with its gender equality approach to family policy and Great Britain representing liberal type of welfare state are at the top of fertility rates list in Europe. In contrast to the previous ones, Italy with conservative family policy model, looms large fertility problems. However, when we focus on the family stability and the process of forming it, the situation appears to be totally opposite. By comparing family policy arrangements in an international perspective, including Polish system of welfare state, it is proved that leave policy providing incentives for fathers to participate in childrearing as well as generous childcare institutional support, as it exists in Sweden, contributes to higher fertility. Moreover, reconciliation policy exerts positive influence on family stability, despite the rise in divorce rates because of the fact that Swedish men meet women's expectations of equality in domestic tasks only to a certain extent and the divorce procedures are nowadays much simpler. Empirical findings indicate that to sustain family fertility and stability at the relatively high level, the policy should follow rising expectations of the couples on balancing the conflict between women's work activities and family life. Such a factor is becoming crucial for Polish fertility level.

In general, the paper deals with population forecasting. Selected extrapolation methods are used for the case of NUTS III regions in Slovakia. The main aim is to verify how reliable they can be with respect to the recent demographic and socio economic processes in Slovakia after 1989 within transformation. We have presupposed the linkages among the demographical and socio-economical changes and curves; therefore, we have attempted to verify how fluctuation, rapid changes during last decade, and reduction of these fluctuations influence the accuracy of the models. There seems to be a strong linkage between the demographic and socio-economic systems. Stability of the demographic one is higher although influenced by fluctuations of the economical ones. There is no doubt that the rapid demographic change will influence features such as retirement system in the future. It is necessary to know how populous and old will be the Slovak population and sub-national ones. The more accurate will be the results, the more suitable will be for the economists and planners.

Recent demographic projections for Poland over the next twenty five years assume that life expectance will rise to 77,2 for males and to 83,5 for females. Over the same period, fertility rate is assumed to recover somewhat, but to reach only 1,2 children per woman on the average, well below 2,1 children required to maintain a stable population. The combination of increased longevity and lover fertility would normally be associated with quickly ageing population. The number of people aged 65 years and over will rise, particularly in the years after 2014, to about 8,5 million by 2030. There are expected substantial increase in outlay of social security system and national health care system. The results of survey conducted in Poland in the end of 2004 allowed the formation of basis for assuming that in the Polish society the need to provide for security in old age is apparent and households undertake some activities to satisfy this need. However focusing on such a rational behaviour is not common. Over half of households in 2004 didn't concentrate their attention on life condition in old age. The expected substantial increase in national health care system's outlay can be softened by improving of state of health of aged and increasing households savings by the developing aging-oriented attitudes.

Considering town design with regard to the originality, identity and traditions can play an effective role in city. The study focuses on changes in organization and usage of the public space in town caused by historical, demographical and political processes, and on process of identification of citizens with urban area. Via German phenomenon of landscape exhibitions we will observe reception and usage of green areas in border town Cheb. Differences in usage of the original and the recent one were caused by massive demographical change: after war removal of German inhabitants. Transforming the public space in Cheb via landscape exhibition we compare with the same process which took place in German border town Marktredwitz. Research methods used for writing this study were analysis of documents related to landscape exhibitions in general and with Chebean and Marktredwitzean exhibition in particular, participant observation and narrative interviews.

In this paper a quantitative approach is used when regarding periodicals and newspa-pers for senior citizens in Germany. The focus, however, is on »Senior Citizens and the Media« which according to Ursula Lehr [2009 p. 9] „[…] is a field of research neglected by both gerontology and the media studies […]“. This paper sheds light on a field of re-search which the scientific world has paid little attention to. To date, periodic publica-tions for senior citizens have hardly played a role in media-orientated and gerontological research. More specifically, results have been documented in a survey where the national magazine and newspaper editorial offices, senior citizen organizations, voluntary welfare services, city and district councils, the Press and Information Office of the Federal Gov-ernment and adult education centers were approached and asked to give up-to-date in-formation to questions regarding this field of research. Resulting from this, a total of 178 commercial, non-commercial and independent senior citizen publications and newspapers could be ascertained for Germany. There were, however, significant differences regarding circulation, distribution, publication, reader participation, and number of pages, etc. The undertaking showed that current research in the field of periodic senior citizens publications is not only desirable but from the perspective of the older generation and other special interest groups (publishing house managers, editors, advertising experts and journalists) is imperative. It goes without saying, that this ne-glected field of research should no longer be ignored.
