Sołdra-Gwiżdż, Teresa2024-02-092024-02-092013Family Forum, 2013, T. 3, s. 115-130.2084-1698http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/12992Since 1945, in Opole Silesia, there have occurred unique processes of forming regional community of varied socio-demographic structure, identity, different experience of history, attitudes and views. Among the social groups inhabiting the region, a significant place is occupied by the population displaced from the Former-Eastem-Lands of Poland, living beside settlers, that is people who came here from others regions of Poland, as well as native Silesians. I present, then, the processes of shaping and changes in the individual and group consciousness in the generation-oriented dimension and also the evolution of the memory of the past and its influence on the current social life. A particularly interesting problem is the attitudes of the young generation towards the transmission of the family remembrance of the past, since – in the light of the research results – the thesis can be put forwards, which needs further verifying in broadly-conducted research into this group though, that are hard to foresee at the moment, the displaced will make a rather disappearing group in Opole-Silesia.plAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/pl/collective family memoryzbiorowa pamięć rodzinnamemory of the pastpamięć o przeszłościdisplaced from Former-Eastern-Landswysiedleni z Dawnych Ziem Wschodnichyoung generationmłode pokolenietransmission of the pastprzekaz przeszłościOpole SilesiaŚląsk Opolskirodzinafamilypamięć zbiorowacollective memoryprzesiedleńcydisplaced peopleArticle
