Item Poprawa warunków mieszkaniowych ludności jako czynnik zmian w strukturze konsumpcji w Polsce(Wydział Prawa i Administracji UAM, 1973) Michalik, WitoldThe consumption policy in Poland tending to rationalize population needs and preferences so that the share of durable consumer goods in the consumption pattern would be bigger has a good chance of success on the basis of improved housing conditions program. On the one hand the development of housing industry ensures concurrence of both individual and social preferences. Considering the noticeable propensity to increase the expenses for dwellings, that development can be an efficient competitor with the expenditures for food stuffs. On the other hand the unsatisfied housing demand exerts an evident influence on purchase of many durable consumers goods, which are complementary to dwellings. The demand for goods and services not connected directly with the dwelling sis also conditioned by the housing situation. It is hardly presumable that the need of a dwelling will be outstripped by the desire of possessing a car when suitable financial means and dwellings are available. In contradistinction to that type of goods the dwelling is one's breath of life. The housing conditions exert also an indirect but substantial influence on the consumption pattern and level in view of their social and economic functions. Therefore the author comes to the conclusion that the development of housing conditions ought to contribute gratly to the desirable changes in the consumption pattern in Poland. Nevertheless one should remember that the 'specific character of housing resricts the speed of improving the papulation housing conditions and thereby the period of changing the consumen's tastes and habits is being extendedItem Zmiana systemu subsydiowania budownictwa mieszkaniowego jako czynnik poprawy sytuacji mieszkaniowej rodziny(Wydział Prawa i Administracji UAM, 1985) Michalik, WitoldThe acute deficit of apartments and the resulting difficult housing conditions are not only a grave distress for many families, including the young ones, but are also leading to disadvantages in a general social and economic scale. Therefore using all available instruments for improving that situation is indispensable. It also concerns a change in a system of housing industry subsidies, in order to increase the share of population's financial resources in investments in that industry and a simultaneous change in criteria of granting social assistance in favor of the subjective and not objective directioning of it. That proposition can raise certain resistance in some circles of the society used to a fallacious thesis of the egalitarian character of the previously applied system of grants, its change seems to be socially justified and economically necessary. It can bring about several positive effects in the scope of improvement of the housing conditions. Those would be: the increase in housing construction, .more extensive social housing protection for the most necessitous families (young married couples, the poorest families).
