“…Peripheralisation processes are the result of the interaction of variables such as decisions, resources and actors on a particular territory (Ku¨hn et al, 2017). In the presently dominant perspective, peripheries are captured from a process-centred angle, which implies considering the analysed territories as undergoing dynamic transformations and being in multiple sets of relations (Jonas, 2012;Ku¨hn, 2015;Ku¨hn and Bernt, 2013). Ku¨hn et al (2017), referring to the Urban Regime Theory (Stone, 1989), analyse the relationship between power and peripheralisation by distinguishing 'power over' (someone or something) from 'power to', as a means to empower social structures.…”

Our motivation for undertaking this research was to verify the scope and results of public policies aimed at supporting peripheralised medium-sized cities, and to check how these policies have been perceived by stakeholders within these cities. We selected the Polish-German borderland as a case region for this, primarily due to a particular concentration of cities experiencing the detrimental effects of socio-economic transformation. These are also cities exposed to the consequences of radicalising political discourse. We chose two pairs of cities comparable to centres behind the border: Bautzen and Görlitz (located in East Saxony), as well as Zgorzelec and Jelenia Góra (the western part of Lower Silesia). We assumed peripheralisation, left-behind places and multilevel governance to be the theoretical frameworks to capture the dynamics of processes taking place within such peripheral(ised) medium-sized cities. Our main research objective was to investigate the way the public authorities have been navigating their respective paths within the multi-level urban development / regional policy systems. The main conclusion of the research is the low institutional capacity among the public authorities in the given cities to allow them to be able to reverse negative trends.

Pojęcie peryferyjności jest szeroko stosowane zarówno w debacie naukowej, jak i polityce regionalnej. Nie ma jednak konsensusu co do definicji tego pojęcia. Celem artykułu jest wypracowanie nowej definicji peryferyjności obejmującej to zjawisko w różnych skalach przestrzennych. Dokonano przeglądu literatury, w ramach którego zestawiano różne podejścia do peryferyjności (społeczne, ekonomiczne, sieciowe i geograficzne) oraz porównano peryferyjność ze zjawiskami pokrewnymi (marginalnością i wykluczeniem); opisano również zmianę rozumienia zjawiska peryferyjności w czasie. Finalnie wytypowano sześć kluczowych cech peryferyjności, które wyróżniają ją spośród zjawisk pokrewnych i w oparciu o nie stworzono definicję peryferyjności.
