The tirst publication was a special English language edition of "Roczniki Socjologii Wsi" ("The Annals of Rural Sociology. Special Issue") (1968) containing a selection of articles from thefirst 7 volumes of that "Annals".Ithas orientedthereader abroad on the directions and state of scientific work in Polandinthefield of rural sociology. The second publication, ih the French language(Les Transformations de la campagne polonaise,ed. R. Turski,19701, provided an allsided view of research and studies conducted in Poland in centres of the Polish Academy of Sciences.Universities andinstitutions directly connected with social practice. This volume constitutes current, the most complete presentation of the trends in Polish rural sociology. In comparison, the present volume, issued by The Institute of Philosoph, and Sociology under the Polish Academy of Sciences, is directed to mainly one problem. This is the question of economic growth, in particular, the implications of industrialization for the socialstructure,the organization of farms of various types, for changes in rural culture and way of life and inthesituationof largesocialgroups, such astherural youth and women. The choice of themes is not accidental. The process of industrialization trampiring in Poland under the conditions of the given socio-economic system is the main factor which moulds the shape of the society, including rural society. The first part of that subject-matter, establishment of the types and forms of industrialization and the manners of its influence on rural life and the changes inthe ruralsocialstructureiteffects have been dominant in the research and theoretical works of recent years. That stage may be regarded as finished, or temporarily closed, unless the need arises of basic conceptual changes. The research trend now leans more toward cognition Of cultural changes: living conditions and expectations inthat respect, the way of life and the so-called quality of life. That direction of interest is growing at present and may be expected to be dominant in the coming years. The volume isnaturally limitedin
