A synthesis of experiences & reflections on UC regional policies over a period of 30 years, focusing on research, editorial, & managerial activities in Poland & abroad. Hypotheses concerning the cyclical development of regional policies -- the golden age 1950-1975, the crisis 1975-1990, the renaissance, the 1990s -- are discussed. Examination of the common features of regional policies in the western, eastern, & the developing countries indicates that the development of regional policies is a worldwide phenomenon. A methodological approach permitting regional policies to be studied in the interdisciplinary framework of cooperation is outlined. 1 Table, 3 Figures. Modified AA
