Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the way of perceiving Silesia and the Silesian identity from a non-national perspective. The policy of the countries to which Silesia belonged shaped the research manners of its inhabitants’ identity. The researchers’ approach was often ideology-ridden and nowadays this manner can be qualified as post-colonial. The article provides an attempt at answering who should conduct research on Silesia, on whose behalf, and what attitude a researcher should represent.
