“…4. The result of measures undertaken to benefit citizens should be the high level of comfort, satisfaction, and pleasure derived from functions performed in the municipality and the provided public services, improving the quality of life and comfortable, easy and unproblematic functioning; in broader terms this concept should refer not only to citizens, but also to other users-municipality stakeholders [76,77]; 5. Development of professional qualified staff thinking in a modern way, willing to learn, which allows using the maximum substantive knowledge of employees, while providing them with the available working tools and flexibility; in broader terms, the municipality uses its both human and economic resources and capabilities in full [78,79]; 6.…”

This article presents the development of the Metropolis GZM cities within the scope of the concept of a Smart City and 4T capitals. The subject matter discussed herein is also related to the search for municipal authorities’ new models and tools to shape sustainable development in order to improve citizens’ access to municipal services and facilities, as well as to increase citizens’ impact on the future of their cities. The main objective of the research was to identify the way in which authorities of the selected cities consider the subject matter related to the Smart City and 4T capitals when formulating local policies. The aim of this article is to analyse the innovative potential in selected cities of the Metropolis GZM, in the light of academic entrepreneurship, the innovativeness of citizens, entities supporting innovativeness, and soliciting talent. The research was based on a systematic literature review and the analysis of local documents, supplemented by direct interviews with local managers and participant observation.

“…The radical political transformation Spain has undergone over the last 30 years has made it a country in transition; the transition from a capitalist dictatorship to a democratic state is, after all, very similar to the transition from a communist dictatorship, as has happened in Poland (see Lawniczak et al, 2009), the main difference being an economic one. That aside, we have seen how the economic transformations resulting from the arrival of democracy in Spain have also been important.…”

This article presents an exploratory study of the current status of public relations in Spain on the basis of elements and indicators applied to other countries in the study The Global Public Relations Handbook (2009). Spain is one of the most notable absentees from the study; this article therefore fills a hole in current public relations research and theory. The conclusion is that Spain is a country that has undergone radical change, from a dictatorship to one of the world's most democratic systems, substantially transforming its economic system, its culture and its society. This transformation has had a crucial effect on the practice of those professions which have freedom of expression as their legal foundation; one such example is public relations, which has grown from an emerging industry into an established profession.

“…6 Conversely, with a few exceptions (Ławniczak et al, 2003;Jowett & O'Donnell, 2006;Fras, 2010), communication studies have paid little attention to Solidarity. Social theorists and political studies (Staniszkis, 1984;Zielonka, 1986) only make references to 'propaganda wars' between Solidarity and the authorities.…”

This article analyzes the Polish Solidarity's propaganda practice. Drawing from a discursive archive comprising cultural artefacts, the movement's policy statements, and augmented by interviews, this Foucault-inspired study reveals how 'propaganda of protest' became a 'pillar' of the Solidarity movement's campaigning. This study analyzes propaganda strategies and tactics for mobilization and political engagement among Poles, and how campaigning aided power shifts between the movement and the authorities. Contextualizing this analysis in the Sovietized settings, this study shows that propaganda was inherent to Solidarity's transgressive and subversive campaigning in multiple areas of the movement's agency: mobilization and support building, construction of collective identities, coalitionbuilding, issues management and policy making, and implementation. Finally, I argue, that the qualities of Solidarity's propaganda were culturally-grounded, based on the selfpresentation strategies as well as the zeitgeist belief in engagement of workers' with trade unionism rather than policies of the state socialist regime.
