In the first part of this article, the author presents several basic facts about
the project »The Valley Flooded«, and about the determining implications of technical
and technological innovations and processes in rural environment. The author’s
general hypothesis reads as follows: »Every technical and technological change
brings about social changes, in the first place, a new distribution of labour.«
On the base of collected empirical data the author confronts attitudes of
peasants and those of some social institutions towards the introduction of innovation
processes, and in connection with this states that their interests have not
been always identical. Therefore, the author having in mind this conceptual approach,
which is actually the model of conceptual-hypothetical frame for an investigation
of a processes of rapid penetration of technical innovations, stresses the
need of identity of interests towards innovations. This need he presents in a form
of twelve hypotheses at the end of his article
