ENThe article attempts at indicating and describing some elements which in the author’s subjective perspective establish the contemporary specifics of the Polish-Lithuaninan neighbourhood as seen first of all from the social perspective. These are: geopolitical and tourist issues, the question of Poland’s former borderland (the so called Kresy), Polish minority in Lithuania, common Polish-Lithuanian heritage, Lithuania’s easterness, outstanding persons’ Polishness ve Lithuanianness and finally the Lithuanian contexts of some Polish dilemmas. Each of these associations was set written into a broader background showing this neighbourhood’s positive and - much more often - negative aspects. One of the final reflections is that this neighbourhood’s character is at present ambiguous, as too many crucial questions are left with no precise answer. [From the publication]
