  • Development of Selected Cities from Masovian 2 Voivodeship in the Aspect of the Urban Resilience 3 Concept
    SILESIAN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY PUBLISHING HOUSE SCIENTIFIC PAPERS OF SILESIAN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY 2020 ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT SERIES NO. 145 1 DEVELOPMENT OF SELECTED CITIES FROM MASOVIAN 2 VOIVODESHIP IN THE ASPECT OF THE URBAN RESILIENCE 3 CONCEPT 4 Radosław KORNEĆ 5 Siedlce University of Natural Sciences and Humanities, Faculty of Social Science; [email protected], 6 ORCID: 0000-0002-5949-0089 7 Purpose: There are many concepts related to effective management of urban centres that have 8 been advanced recently. One is the concept of urban resilience. This allows determining the 9 level of vulnerability and recovery of city economy to occurring events and phenomenon based 10 on analysis of defined indicators. 11 Design/methodology/approach: The research problem taken up in this article, it concerns the 12 question of how an assessment of urban resilience can be done in an economic context with the 13 use of open-access statistical data. In Polish literature there are some studies concerning the 14 chosen topic, however, they do not relate to the particular subject of research. 15 Findings: The results are a certain confirmation of studies that were developed for other urban 16 centres. One common conclusion is that the main external disturbance that significantly 17 changed the selected values of the dynamics of resilience and vulnerability, as well as the line 18 of trajectory related to the development of the studied cities, was the financial crisis that was 19 observed during the years 2009-2012. This particularly affected Warsaw. 20 Originality/value: The urban resilience concept that was applied in the research is a relatively 21 new approached that is used in diagnosing transitions taking place in cities as a result of external 22 socio-economic conditions.
