“…Artykuł stanowi kontynuację badań nad rezyliencją, prowadzonych w wymiarze wybranych miast poprzemysłowych [Drobniak 2014], miast polskich [Drobniak 2016] oraz regionów Europy Środkowej [Drobniak 2017a;2017b]. Obecny etap badań koncentruje się nad tematyką rezyliencji ekonomicznej analizowanej w kontekście miast-obszarów metropolitalnych Unii Europejskiej.…”

“…1. W takim ujęciu rezyliencji ekonomicznej najwięcej obszarów metropolitalnych UE cechuje typ rezyliencji określny mianem roller-coaster: regres PKB w okresie szoku i odzyskanie wartości PKB w relatywnie krótkim czasie [Drobniak 2014]. Oznacza to, że histerezy wzrostu PKB wykazują relatywnie krótkie okresy regresu, po których następuje ponowne wejście na ścieżki wzrostu.…”

Streszczenie: Problem badawczy artykułu dotyczy zagadnienia oceny rezyliencji ekonomicznej miast. Celem artykułu jest określenie poziomu rezyliencji ekonomicznej miast-ośrodków metropolitalnych Unii Europejskiej wraz z próbą porządkowania badanych ośrodków miejskich w grupy o podobnym poziomie rezyliencji. Wstępne wyniki badań wskazują na znaczące zróżnicowanie poziomu rezyliencji, co utrudnia jednoznaczną ocenę tej kategorii oraz daje podstawę do wyjaśnienia zaobserwowanych tendencji rozwoju gospodarczego w kategoriach hybrydyzacji. W warstwie teoretyczno-metodycznej artykuł bazuje na przeglądzie dorobku w dziedzinie urban resilience oraz zastosowaniu metod analizy ilościowej do oceny poziomu rezyliencji, w tym: wskaźników dynamiki PKB, wartości średnich PKB. W zakresie metod grupowania wykorzystano technikę odległości euklidesowej oraz metodę x-średnich. W warstwie empirycznej zaprezentowano wyniki badań nad rezyliencją ekonomiczną wszystkich miast-ośrodków metropolitalnych UE w latach 2000-2014.

“…Cities are economic entities, accumulation of economic strength and resources, employment opportunities and business opportunities, political entities, recognized legal entities, government that provides public resources, capacity and leadership (Mallach, 2013). Cities will emerge as transformation leaders in the development of service sector and be able to attract foreign direct investment (Drobniak & Skowronski, 2012), important contribution as the identity of the city itself and to improve the quality of life (Ertas & Ozdemir, 2013). City development is related to industrial development while industrial development has to do with city development (Bailey & Cowling, 2011).…”

Regional development and sustainable development can be done through strengthening various business units developed in certain industrial areas. Industrial estate development is expected to be able to refer to sustainable development by taking into account economic, social, ecological functions and complying with applicable regulations to improve business performance in manufacturing industry. The need for sustainable development in management of industrial estates, diversity of business units, and increasing distribution and management of value chains for business units need to be followed up more comprehensive. Integration of transportation, communication and trade networks in the form of modern logistics and supply chain management enables the production and distribution of global systems that can truly change the level of people's welfare. This research was conducted in three best industrial estates in Indonesia to be taken into consideration in development of 14 priority industrial estate outside the island of Java which has been declared by government. Corporate sustainability important to contribution in improving business performance in manufacturing industry, and will get optimal results if fully supported by diversification strategies, supply chain management and innovation strategies. This research is expected to contribute ideas especially related to business in industrial estates and urban development so that it can further increase understanding of the concepts studied through business performance and its impact on the company's sustainability in development of industrial estates.

“…Irrespective of the position of small mining and industrial towns in the settlement system of a region like the Katowice conurbation, the key problem in studies from a contemporary perspective is the transformation of industrial and mining regions in general. There is an extensive body of work on this issue as well as established research trends:economic [16][17][18], geographical [19][20][21], sociological [22][23][24], spatial and infrastructural [25][26][27], and based on urban policy [28][29][30][31][32]. From another perspective, one that is important for examination of the titular Katowice conurbation, studies on the transformation of mining regions in Central and Eastern Europe are valuable.…”

Between Industrialism and Postindustrialism—the Case of Small Towns in a Large Urban Region: The Katowice Conurbation, Poland

2019

The socio-economic transformation of (post)mining towns takes different forms and follows varied pathways. This obvious fact acquires a different significance in a region that is a polycentric urban conurbation whose growth was based on coal mining and industry. Particularly as concerns small towns, which are a minority in it in terms of numbers. This paper attempts to present the issue based on the cases of two small towns, Lędziny and Radzionków, located in the Katowice conurbation in southern Poland. While having similar mining origins, the towns currently represent two radically different paths of economic development. Both mentioned towns are developing relatively well. However, certain threats to their growth are also revealed: social functional, environmental and even political. A closer inspection of both is important in that the two small towns are examples of two extremities in the region, between which other types of towns undergoing socio-economic transformation are situated. The selected examples also indicate that a small (post)mining town does not necessarily have to be ‘the place that don’t matter’. Additionally, an important conclusion is that despite many objective barriers, a small town in a mining region can follow a line of development based on the industry 4.0 concept.
