Fazy rozwoju przemysłu PRL w przekroju gałęziowym

Abstract

The elaboration contains the results of division into stages of development of socialized Polish industry in the years 1950 -1982 carried out with the use of statistical methods. Deaggregation of industry was performed with the account taken for the division into nine groups of industry branches according to the Chief Central Statistical Office classification made according to the so-called plant method. A set of products, representative for each of branch groups and for industry in general was adopted as grounds for isolation of development stages in their quantitative aspect. As regards the whole of industry a version accounting for total production and employment was analised along with representative products. Division into stages of changes in branch structure of industry was carried out on the basis of total output distribution and employment distribution in the years 1980 - 1982 with supplementary reference made to 1950. The results achieved are corresponding to findings of other authors although obviously they would require further verification.
