Between city and countryside
The paper investigates the dynamics of spatial development in the peri-urban area of Warsaw, Poland. It focuses on the processes of suburbanization and urban sprawl occurring within the city's administrative boundaries and its neighbouring rural municipalities. Drawing on spatial data from 2014 to 2024, the study identifies the most intensive zones of border residential development and analyzes the morphological characteristics of emerging housin…
The role of settlement abandonment in the transformation of the landscape of former East Prussia after World War II
The article takes a closer look at the results of interdisciplinary geographical and archaeological research, revealing the hitherto unknown number and distribution of post-1945 depopulated settlement units located throughout the entire area of former East Prussia. It was an area that was marked by mass migration movements after 1945. Article also brings together selected themes on the characteristics of material remains of abandoned localities. …
Problems of the urban structure of small towns in the vicinity of Polish Warsaw and Ukrainian Lviv
For many years, small towns in Poland and Ukraine, which are often referred to as “post-socialist”, have been struggling with the spatial chaos of their historical urban structure. These towns tended to be largely neglected and often struggled to maintain a sense of identity. After the political transformation, a process of “shrinking” was observed in these towns. Poland's accession to the European Union helped change both the appearance of towns…
Delimitation of the metropolitan areas of Warsaw and Lviv over the last 100 years. The Polish-Ukrainian experience
In the 21st century age of globalisation, a metropolis is considered the main unit of the settlement system, though its impact may well extend beyond the borders of a certain country. The principles of zoning for metropolitan areas are significant as a tool for the correct construction of the spatial structure of the state, facilitating the activation and use of human potential and economic development. In the aftermath of centralised planning un…
Can Assessment of Rheological Properties of Whole Blood and Plasma Be Useful in the Diagnosis of Tinnitus? A Pilot Study
Tinnitus is a sensation of ringing in the ears in the absence of any physical source in the environment. Between 9-35% of adults experience some form of tinnitus. Common causes of tinnitus include noise, head injury, ototoxic substances, as well as disorders of blood and blood vessels. Vascular causes include: head-neck tumours, turbulent blood flow, problems with blood supply and inner ear cell damage. The aspect of rheology in terms of tinnitus…
Body Balance Analysis in the Visually Impaired Individuals Aged 18–24 Years
Visually impaired individuals present a poorer ability to maintain balance under dynamic conditions. Tests conducted on the unstable surface platform seem to be more relevant and applicable in the diagnosis of the subjects with visual impairment, as they differentiate the subjects to a greater extent
Pandemic resilient cities
Cities, due to population density and the complexity of human interactions, experience specific problems arising from their functioning in the era of the Covid-19 pandemic. Many scientists who publish their findings in contemporary literature agree on the need to shape pandemic resilient cities by making changes to the functional-spatial structure and preparing cities for rapid revitalization [regeneration] in the post-pandemic period. The main o…
The development of small towns and towns of well-being
Contemporary urban development is evolving towards towns with good social capital, where good living conditions are key. The article aims to define the directions of transformation of small towns in Poland following the political transformation (i.e. over the last 30 years), while also looking at how these transformations may affect the living conditions in these towns. The article uses theoretical, empirical and cartographic research methods, ta…
The Morphology of Cemeteries of Abandoned Villages in the Polish Part of Former East Prussia
The article discusses selected issues concerning the morphology of cemeteries of completely depopulated rural settlement units located in the part of East Prussia that was incorporated into Poland in 1945. The boundaries and spatial forms of the cemeteries were analysed and interpreted. These are actually the best-preserved components of the landscape of these historical burial places. The basic source material used in the study for the identific…
Żydowskie dziedzictwo religijne w koncepcji krajobrazu konfliktu Materialne świadectwa Zagłady i działań zbrojnych na przykładzie Nowego Cmentarza Żydowskiego w Łodzi
Krajobraz konfliktu to koncepcja przykuwająca obecnie uwagę w studiach krajobrazowych. Kierunkuje analizy przede wszystkim w ramach archeologii współczesności, stanowiąc jeden z kluczy odczytywania historii ze struktur otaczającego nas krajobrazu kulturowego. W artykule przedstawiono propozycję rozszerzenia koncepcji krajobrazu konfliktu w dyskursie o żydowskim materialnym dziedzictwie religijnym. Humanistyczne zwrócenie się ku materialności odsł…
Sustainable and vibrant cities. Opportunities and threats to the development of Polish cities
In the 21st century, Poland has begun to pay more attention to the sustainable development of its cities and to pro-ecological solutions. It was found that urban design should provide proper mental comfort to inhabitants, for instance by reducing burdensome traffic in favour of ecological transport: public transport and bicycles, and should facilitate various social activities
Continuity and Decline. Temporal Expression of Denominational Cemeteries in Contemporary Times
The study attempts to systematize the leading transformations observed nowadays in denominational cemeteries located in Poland. The time frame of the analyses was limited to the period from the end of the Second World War to the present. Four basic types of transformations have been distinguished and divided into two main directions of changes reported over time, namely: harmonious temporal expression (stagnation/decline, continuation) and dishar…
Cytaty z przeszłości – ryty na drzewach w przypałacowym parku w Nakle (gmina Lelów). Odczytywanie nieoczywistych elementów lokalnej historii
The palace and park in Nakło were built by Count Kajetan Bystrzanowski in the years 1770–1780. After his death the property was passing from hand to hand, to finally get to the Komorowski family (Matilda, the wife of the successor to the throne of Belgium and Franciszek Starowieyski, a painter, belong to this family). Komorowski managed the assets until the end of The Second World War but then he lost them to the state. For several years, the pal…
Relikty zanikłych jednostek osadniczych na pograniczu mazursko-mazowieckim. Interdyscyplinarny projekt badawczy
The paper presents the proposal for an interdisciplinary, humanistically oriented analysis of extinct settlements on the example of the results of the author’s research project realized on the territory of the Pisz county in the Warmińsko-Mazurskie voivodship. The project, embedded in the current research trend on the transformations of the contemporary landscape, was focused on the analysis of the relics of the 20th century extinct settlement st…
