Summary/Abstract: The book considers the evaluation of the significance of social potential in diversification of the development of postindustrial cities – cities that once used to serve similar functions, yet, nowadays function in different cultural conditionings. The analyses have been made on the basis of author’s concept of “social potential of territorial community development”. The work is dedicated to academics, to those interested in the local communities, especially of the postindustrial cities affected by the negative influence of globalization, as well as to activists in the field of urban issues.
