Over the course of history, relatively slow and gradual processes of urbanisation are occasionally interrupted by periods of turbulent restructuring. The post-socialist transition is definitely one of the most outstanding examples of these changes
, directly affecting the lives of over 300 million people. Within the confines of this succinct theoretical recapitulation, firstly, the relationship between capitalist and socialist urbanisation - as a broader conceptual frame - is presented, followed
by the brief summary of the post-socialist transition's general characteristics. Subsequently, the specificities of the urban structure of socialist and post-socialist cities are subsumed, and finally, different scenarios and development perspectives for post

Strukturwandel des Oberschlesischen Industriereviers unter den Bedingungen einer sozialistischen Wirtschaftsordnung The changes of the industrial structure of the Upper Silesian Industry district on condition of a socialisticeconomic system
-into the new socialist Polish state in 1945. The dominant aim of economic growth has been pursued since 1949 by means of different strategies as for industrial location planning. The leading party authorities mostly tended-according to the rigid principles
, that economic growth could be best achieved by regional concentration of industrial investments. Immediately after the workers'revolts of 1956 and 1970, when the party's head group changed and when socialist growth conception was replaced by economic optimum
of a socialist location theory-to achieve a quasi even distribution (Engels) of industry over the country. This policy led to relative losses of industrial growth in Upper Silesia in favour of other, less developed regions. These effects of the party's policy
were partly counteracted by particularistic behaviour of strong forces within economic and regional party administration. Since the early sixties leading economic scientists in Poland and other Comecon countries have more and more adopted the conception
