This article has two objectives. The cognitive objective is to recognize and systematize the strategies of adaptation of industrial enterprises in Łódź in the years 1992–2003. The basis for the systematic arrangement are conclusions made by T. Stryjakiewicz (1999), J. Michalak and U. Dzika (2000). The other, theoretical objective is an attempt to apply the typology of forms of space adaptation of industrial enterprises presented by T. Stryjakiewicz (1999) in order to synthesise the identified strategies. The typology of T. Stryjakiewicz transfers A. Smith’s (1995) conclusions into Polish science. Its theoretical basis are theories of regulation and industrial networks. Having studied the cases of fifteen companies, whose adaptation strategies were the most diverse or characteristic of a given branch, the author has systemized the identified adaptation procedures. There were eighteen different types of strategies falling into five categories: cost reduction, relocation, changes in management system, changes in the structure of production and contacts with foreign partners. While trying to classify the adaptation typology forms, besides those characterized by T. Stryjakiewicz (1999), such as deindustrializing, paternalistic and global, two additional types were recognized: local and transitional adaptation. Local adaptation, applied mostly by small enterprises, limits their activity to the local market. Those enterprises have a small adaptability and do not participate in the process of globalization. The transitional type is common to a part of medium-sized and large enterprises with Polish capital. Owning to new technologies and organization of production, they increase their adaptability and are better suited to global competition. The analysis has led to the conclusion that the kind of adaptation procedures taken by enterprises and also the result of those actions depend on the origin of the enterprises, their branch, size and the origin of capital.

tom 2 Koncepcje Wacława Nałkowskiego w świetle osiągnięć współczesnej nauki i filozofii

123-134

EN

The article is inspired by Wacław Nałkowski’s writings and is a reflection on the nature of geography and its place in the system of knowledge. Moreover, the author considers the status of geography and its social relevance. The article seeks to justify the thesis that the low prestige of geography in social consciousness is an outcome of the attitudes of scholars and teachers of geography themselves, the media propaganda and also the state policy. The main objective of the paper is to verify these theses. The first part of the paper is devoted to the status of geography as a science. The author argues that contemporary perception of the essence of geography, understood as a loose compilation of physical and human disciplines, is quite different than the unified, holistic and humanistic concept of Nałkowski. The problems of geographical education are also emphasized, since the misunderstanding of geography as a science is being transferred into the sphere of education, influencing the school curricula and handbooks. In conclusion, the author proves that for the improvement in the area of geography’s social relevance, the restoration of the forgotten ideas of Wacław Nałkowski is essential.

Przestrzeń zainwestowania miejskiego w Łodzi charakteryzuje się pewną specyfiką uwarunkowaną historycznymi procesami rozwoju miasta i przemysłu w mieście (rys. 1). W dzielnicach centralnych. na głównej osi N - S, znajdują się liczne "stare" tereny przemysłowe powstałe przed l 939 rokiem, często w czasach "Ziemi Obiecanej". Przerastają się one ze starą tkanką mieszkaniową dzielnic śródmiejskich. "Nowe" tereny przemysłowe powstały w Łodzi dopiero w latach 60- tych i 70- tych, głównie w NW i SE częściach miasta. Obszary te położone są na zewnątrz linii kolejowej, tzw. "kolei obwodowej", otaczającej szeroko rozumiane śródmieście Łodzi. W okresie powstawania, "nowe" tereny przemysłowe były położone na obszarach niezabudowanych, na ówczesnych peryferiach miasta. Jednakże wraz z rozwojem ludnościowym i przestrzennym Łodzi tereny te zostały otoczone przez zabudowę blokową nowych osiedli
