Abstract

The article has a ‘celebratory’ character connected with two jubilees:– the 25th anniversary of the Conference on Industrial Geography, organised by the Institute of Geography, Cracow Pedagogical University, in collaboration with the Industrial Geography Committee of the Polish Geographical Society; and – the 80th birthday of Professor Stanisław Misztal, Honorary President of the Industrial Geography Committee of the Polish Geographical Society.This is a good opportunity to analyse and discuss the changes which have taken place in industrial geography over this period. The discussion, presented in the first section, embraces the following issues:1. Change in the definition of the substantive scope of industrial geography;2. Methodological trends and research directions;3. A new look at the location of economic activity;4. The place of industry in on-going spatial processes.The next section of the article addresses the question of how the changes are reflected in the 25-years’ history of the Cracow Conference. The last section presents evaluation of the current state of the Polish industrial geography, including its strengths and weaknesses.
