Research Reports, 2016, vol. 1, issue 20, 80-87 Abstract: This paper shows an anthropological analysis of economic initiatives at Nowy Targ Commune in Podhale. Firstly, cultural background is described, in which family and family farm have a crucial meaning. Furthermore, such oppositions as: home–external world/state, intellectual work-manual labor, to work–to moonlight, and also long-term tradition of labour migration are discussed. This article proposes a wide perspective of business’ analysis, containing family causation of an individual. The Internet becomes an essential aspect of present, highlanders’ entrepreneurship. Popularization of this new medium not only brought new economic possibilities for Podhale dwellers, but also highlighted many social differences. The most important ones, shaping personal entrepreneurship, are gender, age and received education.
