Abstract
W artykule podjęto zagadnienia lokalnego partnerstwa, które odgrywa ważną rolę we wdrażaniu polityki rozwoju obszarów wiejskich Unii Europejskiej. Celem badań było wskazanie, czy węgierskie lokalne partnerstwa spełniły wytyczne dyrektywy Unii Europejskiej dotyczącej aktywnego uczestnictwa w rozwoju lokalnym. Badanie przeprowadzono na próbie pochodzącej z węgierskiego programu LEADER, wśród liderów instytucji zarządzających i członków lokalnych grup działania. Wyniki analiz dotyczące udziału i aktywności członków potwierdziły hipotezę, iż praca w ramach partnerstwa nie zawsze kończy się realnym i znaczącym udziałem lokalnych podmiotów.

This paper focuses on local partnerships which play an important role in the local implementation of the rural development policy of the European Union. The objective of this study is to reveal whether the Hungarian local partnerships really fulfil the directives of the European Union concerning the active participation. The participative characteristics of members of local partnerships are studied through the example of the current Hungarian LEADER programme. To examine this issue two survey were conducted in the circle of leaders of management offices and members of Local Action Groups. The so gained data were analysed by different statistical methods. The results concerning the participation and activity of members proved our hypothesis, according to which the work in partnership does not always end in real and meaningful participation of local actors.
