The article presents Wojciech Chlebda’s model of contronyms, developed through his analyses of the cultural concepts of Polska (Poland) and Europa (Europe) in Polish discourse, with a special attention to the identity-building function of the opposition “us/them” (“one’s own/the Other”). The three parts of the article are devoted to: the opposition “us/them” (“one’s own/the Other”) in ethnolinguistic research and discourse analysis, the contronymic division of the cultural concepts Polska and Europa, and the borderland as a space where the “us/them” opposition can be rendered void
