Item Description:	The research goal of the monograph was to review the results of twenty five years of special economic zones (SEZ) in Poland and to preliminary assess a new "Polish Investment Zone (PIZ)" programme. Analysis and interpretation of extensive empirical material have made an important contribution into studies on SEZ. Emphasis has been placed on foreign direct investment and SEZ investment in a regional perspective. The monograph consists of 4 chapters devoted to: (1) the concept, theoretical foundations and principles of SEZ functioning in Poland; (2) statistical results of their development; (3) effects they have produced in the light of empirical studies; and (4) first results of the "Polish Investment Zone" programme. The in-depth review of empirical studies and the examination of statistical data allow us to draw positive conclusions on the performance of the zones, mostly owing to foreign investors' operations, and moderately positive conclusions with regard to their effects on the economy. First outcomes of PIZ reveal an increased interest among domestic small and medium-sized entrepreneurs and relatively less interest among foreign entrepreneurs. Two features of PIZ are evident: the centralised management of the programme and the discretionary nature of the assessment of qualitative criteria, which "de facto" condition access to public funds
