The monograph is divided into seven parts, beginning with a theoretical interpretation of localness as a broad, affirmative concept that shapes human existence through a connection to place. This section emphasizes the creative power found in what may appear passive or separate, highlighting the local individual's ability to forge bonds and tell a valid story of their environment. The subsequent part explores local space as world space, illustrating how it defines individual identity and community belonging, particularly through the lens of Silesian Grlitz and the experiences of those who have lost their homes. The focus then shifts to the experience of existence at the margins, using the derelict Fazaniec park in Silesia as a case study. Another section delves into the dialectics of oppression and border protection, questioning how new narratives about borders can influence relationships and contribute to the Silesian understanding of home. The exploration of post-industrial spaces reveals deeper connections to our existence and the larger context of dwelling. The discussion on the Philosophy of Localness and the Arts connects urban thought with metaphysical community, reflecting on cultural practices in Barcelona and local metropolises. Finally, the interpretation of the university examines its role at the intersection of world and home, addressing autonomy, location, and regional connections while emphasizing its importance
