Improved Housing Conditions as a Factor of Changes in the Consumption Pattern in Poland
Abstract
The 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 extended
