Relokacje w łódzkiej rewitalizacji w kontekście międzynarodowej debaty na temat przesiedleń
REVITALISATION-INDUCED RELOCATIONS IN ŁÓDŹ IN THE CONTEXT OF THE INTERNATIONAL DEBATE ON DISPLACEMENT

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyze the case of relocations carried out within the Area Revital-ization of the Center of Łódź in the context of international debate on displacements. The first part of the article describes the course of the debate on displacements, focusing, on the one hand, on the paradigm of the “right to stay” and, on the other hand, summarizing the current state of research in Western European countries. The second part describes the conditions of resettlement in the revitalization of Łódź, resulting from the laws and implementation practices at the national and local level, and also analyses tenants’ expla-nations regarding their planned return. The results of the analysis show that in the case of revitalization in Łódź, most tenants do not take advantage of the opportunity to return to their apartments after renovation. The focus on the right to return should therefore give way to the precise definition and guarantee of such relocation conditions that are satisfactory for the residents.
