Abstract

The article focus on various spatial attitudes and mobility of the inhabitants of enclaves of poverty, which have been identified, among others, on the basis of their drawings and sketch maps related to their place of residence: the yard, the nearest neighbourhood and the city. When constructing the model of attitudes, the author was inspired by Ludwik Stomma’s ethnological description of world and anti-world and the levels of existential space distinguished by Christian Norberg-Schulz. The model includes: 1) imaginations and feelings towards specified spaces, by some seen as their own and tamed (orbis interior), while by others as foreign and wild (orbis exterior); and 2) spatial mobility, determined on the basis of spatial orientation (implosive, explosive) and spatial behaviour of the subjects (exploratory, escapist, and inertial).
