Sprawiedliwość społeczna a przestrzenne zróżnicowanie rozwoju społeczno-gospodarczego Polski – kilka refleksji dyskusyjnych
Social Justice and Spatial Differentiation of Socio-economic Development of Poland – Some Reflections

Summary/Abstract: The author discusses different definitions of social justice related to equality of outcome and equality of opportunity. It is argued that, in the territorial perspective, public policy should aim at improving the equality of opportunity by means of reducing social exclusion rather than at fighting regional disparities in the standards of living. What is challenged is the interpretation of the relationship between political preferences and the core–periphery division of Poland into Northern and Western Territories on the one hand and Eastern and South-Eastern regions on the other, as presented by R. Perdał et al. (2020).
