Abstract

V originále

Present chapter is a culturalist response to two strategic goals of the book. First, it enters the sociological discourse whose aim is to delineate the patterns of chnge and continuity in Warsaw under post-communist transition. Second, unlike the bult of pertinent literature that foregrounds materialist concerns, it contributes to this discourse from socio-semiotic vantage point. Author outlines what Warsaw can and does mean to various interpretative communities existentially connected to the city or preoccupied with it by profession and interest.
