The text attempts to explain Silesian behaviour which results from the cultural dominance of the Polish state. Postcolonial theory facilitates the understanding of Silesian aspirations to emphasise differences from the Polish past and to display the harm they have suffered. The analysis is based on disputable interpretations of events such as the Silesian Uprisings (during 1919–1921) and World War II. The narrative around these differs, an example of invented tradition in both groups: dominant and dominated. Meanwhile, the lack of recognition of the historical and cultural distinctiveness of the region is a source of conflict.

面对波兰文化优势的西里西亚人

文本试图解释由波兰国家的文化主导地位导致的西里西亚行为。后殖民理论有助于理解西里西亚渴望强调与波兰过去的差异并展示他们所遭受的伤害。该分析基于对西里西亚起义（1919-1921 年期间）和第二次世界大战等事件的有争议的解释。围绕这些的叙述不同，这是两个群体中发明传统的一个例子：支配和被支配。同时，对该地区的历史和文化独特性缺乏认识也是冲突的根源。
