Abstract

The automotive industry in Silesia province is becoming more important. It is influenced by many factors among which one of the most important are political activities of the self‑government authorities in Silesia province together with government administration. For example, the element of political activities was “The regional contract for the Katowice province” and Silesian Region Development Strategy. As the result of this activity, the Katowice Special Economic Zone was established, what was clearly affected and continues to affect the creation of new ones and the expansion of existing plants related to the automotive industry. For example, they are Fiat Auto Poland, Opel, Isuzu, Magneti Marelli. The development of this branch of industry is a great opportunity for a big technological leap and restructuring of the economy for Silesia province and for Poland.
