Lizbona – tożsamość międzykulturowego miasta

Abstract

The aim of the article is to draw attention to the specificity of Lisbon’s identity – the identity of an intercultural city, engaged on the one hand in intercultural dialogue that integrates local communities, and on the other – in the process of a commercial use of this dialogue leading to the revitalization and gentrification of urban spaces. The context for presenting the above-mentioned problems involves: the historical background of Lisbon’s interculturalism, the idea of intercultural cities, intercultural dialogue, models of diversity and the city’s neoliberal policy.
