Miasto-idea i rola kultury w jego rozwoju
THE CITY-IDEA: THE ROLE OF CULTURE IN ITS DEVELOPMENT

Summary/Abstract: In principle, the City-Idea is not a universal idea that providesa model of yet another ‘ideal city.’ In order to develop, each city must come up with its idea, by which I mean a city-specific process of unlocking its development and (urban) value-creation potential. For this reason, it is not a city development model, but a normatively understood approach – a concept, not a formula. An important role in this process is played by culture. Starting the development spiral from interventions in the field of culture stimulates societal imagination, that is, a community of thinking about a good city, about the needed and possible changes, and about innovative activities that lead to that end. These activities alone concern, of course, not only the field of culture, but continued in that area, they consistently deliver creative energy.
