The first is to examine the level of the development of knowledge economy in Polish regions (NUTS 2 units, voivodeships). In order to assess the advances in building the knowledge economy in regions, the composite indicator for years 2003-2008 is constructed with the use of the Hellwig method based on creation of an abstract model. The second purpose is to analyse the regional authorities’ policies directed towards supporting the pillars underlying the knowledge economy. To fulfil this aim first of all the funds of intraregional policy directed towards supporting the knowledge economy pillars will be assessed. Then the correlation between the level of development of knowledge-based economy and the share of expenditures of intraregional policies to reinforce the development of knowledge economy pillars will be calculated.enUznanie autorstwa-Bez utworów zależnych 3.0 Polskaregions based on knowledgeregional policybookPart
