EN The article presents self-organization of local communities in the context of traditional methods of participation and bottom-up revitalization, and focuses on its specific type which is established around a space important for the residents. The aim of the article is to show the evolution of self-organization in interaction with local government, private investors and a wider group of inhabitants, which leads to major socio-spatial changes. The analysis of five selected case studies from the UK, Germany and Poland allows to capture common patterns of behavior beyond geographical and administrative differences and, as a result, create a model scheme of self-organization development, which may become a guideline and inspiration for local communities and governments in other locations.
