Plans for the development of Warsaw have changed with time. The first Warsaw Metropolitan Area Plan (1911) consisted of an urban core surrounded by a green belt. The 1934 Spatial Plan of Functional Warsaw presented two linear structures crossing in the city center and based on rail and road networks.

Thomas Piketty, a professor at the Paris School of Economics, is not yet widely known in the global scientific economic community. However, his name may soon appear in the world’s scientific firmament, as he has published an extremely interesting, but also very intellectually provocative book, entitled: “Capital in the Twenty-First Century” (Capital in the Twenty-First Century – English translation, published by Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2014). The starting point of the author’s considerations is to show the great economic inequalities of the modern world, especially in the aspect of the almost unbelievable wealth belonging to about 1% of the richest people.

Among the numerous group of nanomaterials, nanofillers with bacteriostatic and biocidal properties, which are used in polymer plastics, coatings, paints, medical materials or coated fabrics, attract particular attention. Spherical silica containing various amounts of immobilized nanosilver was prepared by a sol-gel method combined with two-step SiO2 modification. The main factors determining the intended synthesis effect are the pH of the reaction mixture, stirring rate and temperature.

The purpose of this article is to analyze the improvement of road safety on the basis of data, concerning accidents and collisions in the area of two municipalities in the Mazovian Voivodeship, in which bypasses of county towns in the course of expressways have been built (the municipality of Wyszków and the municipality of Garwolin). The study was conducted on the basis of data contained in accident cards, collected by the Traffic Bureau of the Police Headquarters within the Accident and Collision Record System (SEWIK), for the years 2006-2012. The Mazowieckie Voivodeship, in terms of the level of accidents, slightly deviates from the national average.

The article is devoted to the relationship between the belief in getting involved in municipal affairs and interpersonal trust, as well as an assessment of the attitude of the authorities to the social activity of residents in the Podkowa Leśna municipality near Warsaw. Involvement in the life of the municipality, regardless of the form, builds trust, i.e. strengthens social capital, which is so important for initiating cooperation of residents for the general good. The author shows that a sense of involvement in the municipality’s affairs does not necessarily result from giving to local organizations, of which there are more than a dozen in Podkowa Leśna.
