“…Though the connection between tourism and transport has been widely examined previously (Page 2005;Prideaux 1993), there are still significant gaps in this research topic (Chew 1987;Gunn 1994;Hall 1991;Inskeep 1991;Page 1994;Page 1999;Robbins and Thompson 2007). As pointed out by Knowles (1993), in many cases researchers took transport into account as a passive element in tourism, not as an integral part of tourism activities. Though the tourism product to be consumed by tourists, i.e.…”

This study aims at investigating the multiple and complex relationships between transport and tourism by various methods. In this paper, spatial interaction model and the shift-share analysis are used in different approaches. Factors of the relationship between the transport distance and tourism intensity will be detected and the connections between the accessibility of European regions and their tourism will be analysed. One of the major questions of our study is if there is any relationship between transport and tourism at European regional level (NUTS2); and if so, is there any kind of regularity in the relationship, as Bull (1994) states in his study. Finally, we examined whether there are any differences in this relationship at the level of the European regions.

“…The described studies view the (non) inclusion of an area and the people who live there in the transport system as the main problem. According to Knowles, these topics are among the ten most significant problems being addressed by transport geography in the 21st century (Knowles 1993). Unlike this concept, in which the topic of accessibility and mobility is limited to an examination Geographia Polonica 2017, 90, 3, pp.…”

The presented article focuses on the relationship between social exclusion and the transport geographical characteristics which are considered as instrumental in the development of social exclusion, and also as a negative feature that can even deepen the exclusion. In the first part, the author generally defines and examines the concept of social exclusion as a selectively operating process of differentiation, the way it has been perceived over time and its individual aspects with an emphasis on the spatial dimension. The second part of the article is devoted to the conditional relationship between transportation and social exclusion. Besides the description of this process of exclusion, which is transport related, there is a discussion of the role of transport (in)accessibility and characteristics of personal mobility as a crucial factors which cause or intensify the exclusion. On the other hand it also offers a chance to reintegrate individuals into society.

“…Problematyka transformacji systemów transportowych w krajach dawnego bloku socjalistycznego, a zwłaszcza procesów prywatyzacji i deregulacji, jest jednym z ważniejszych tematów badawczych geografi i transportu w ostatnich dwudziestu latach (Hoyle i Knowles, red., 1992, 1998Knowles, 1993;Knowles i inni, red., 2008). Od ponad dekady autorzy niniejszego artykułu śledzą wspomniane procesy zachodzące na terytorium Polski po 1989 r., a dotyczące poszczególnych rodzajów i gałęzi transportu -kolejowego (Taylor, 2002(Taylor, , 2004(Taylor, , 2007Taylor i Ciechański, 2005, 2006, 2010e, 2011a, drogowego (Taylor i Ciechański, 2007, 2008a, 2008b, 2010a, 2010b, 2013a, 2013b, miejskiego (Taylor i Ciechański, 2008c, 2009, 2010a, 2010b, 2010c) i żeglugi śródlądowej (Taylor i Ciechański, 2010d, 2011b, 2013c.…”
