They differ both in terms of the number and the social nature of immigrants. The aim of this article is to show how the presence of the Polish immigrants community was reflected in the urban space and cultural life of the capital of Argentina. This study investigates the material traces of presence, such as monuments, squares, buildings, commemorative plaques, as well as its intangible dimension: the activities of Polish organizations, Polish schools and parishes, Polish festivals, which have been part of the ethnically diverse urban landscape of Buenos Aires for years.}, doi = {10.4467/25444972SMPP.21.035.14455}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/smpp/artykul/polish-buenos-aires-polish-traces-in-the-urban-space-of-the-past-and-present} }
