Local European Capital of Culture Wrocław 2016 – Social Impact of the ECC in the Lower Silesia Region

Languages of publication

Abstracts

EN
The European Capital of Culture Wrocław 2016 was the second location, of this series of events in Poland after Krakow. The number of events, estimated at over 2,000, meant that the city and the region were (to an uneven degree) subject to the impact of cultural impulses of an unprecedented scale. From a social point of view, it is important to look at the social effect of the ECOC, i.e., the response to these cultural events, placed in the context of lifestyles and biographical circumstances, and the consequences it may have had for the functioning of the region’s inhabitants (as compared to the inhabitants of the central city) in terms of cultural practices. The text presents selected aspects of the ECC social effect observed on the periphery of the Lower Silesian region. The ECC effect is defined as the social response to this complex cultural intervention and its possible consequences for the functioning of local communities. The empirical basis for the analysis are the results of quantitative research carried out as part of the ECC evaluation project. These revealed the limitations on access to participation in the ECOC by different social categories (including women, people with children and the poor), the extent of participation and the type of events chosen by peripheral residents (limited participation mainly in mass, open, free, family festive events) and the dominant nature of the experience shaping the social impact of the ECOC (focus on having fun, recreational leisure activities, linking participation to meeting family and friends).
PL
Europejska Stolica Kultury Wrocław 2016 była drugim, po Krakowie, przykładem organizacji tego cyklu imprez w Polsce. Liczba wydarzeń, szacowana na ponad 2000, spowodowała, że miasto i region (w nierównomiernym stopniu) podlegały oddziaływaniu impulsów kulturalnych o niespotykanej dotąd skali. Ze społecznego punktu widzenia istotne jest przyglądanie się społecznemu efektowi ESK, czyli umieszczonej w kontekście stylów życia i uwarunkowań biograficznych reakcji na te wydarzenia kulturalne oraz temu, jakie może ona mieć konsekwencje dla funkcjonowania mieszkańców regionu (w porównaniu z mieszkańcami miasta centralnego) w obszarze praktyk kulturalnych. Tekst prezentuje wybrane aspekty społecznego efektu ESK obserwowanego na peryferiach regionu Dolnego Śląska. Efekt ESK zdefiniowano jako społeczną reakcję na tę złożoną interwencję kulturalną oraz jej możliwe konsekwencje dla funkcjonowania lokalnych zbiorowości. Podstawą empiryczną analizy są wyniki badań ilościowych wykonanych w ramach projektu ewaluacji ESK. Ujawniły one ograniczenia dostępu do udziału w ESK różnych kategorii społecznych (m.in. kobiet, osób mających dzieci, osób ubogich), zakres uczestnictwa i typ imprez wybranych przez mieszkańców peryferii (ograniczony udział głównie w masowych, otwartych, darmowych, festynowych wydarzeniach rodzinnych) oraz dominujący charakter wyniesionych doświadczeń kształtujących społeczny efekt ESK (skupienie na dobrej zabawie, rekreacyjnym spędzeniu czasu wolnego, powiązaniu uczestnictwa ze spotkaniem z rodziną, znajomymi).
