Abstract
Cultural, ideological and social sources of anarchy in spatial management in
Poland. The article is an individual statement about the state of the steering sphere of spatial
management in Poland. The author puts forward the thesis that for years there has been anarchy
in it, which deepened in the period of systemic transformation. Despite the established
legal framework of spatial management, consistent with European standards and the existence
of spatial planning institutions at local, regional and national level, manifestations of anarchy
are widely visible. This is an important, though not the only, reason for the widely observed
and repeatedly documented disorder and even spatial chaos in the material sphere of spatial
management in Poland. The sources of this anarchy are sought in a specific Polish culture,
ideologies professed by professionals related to spatial management, and in old and new social
divisions.
