Silesian identity is what connects regardless of national identity. The aim of this article is to present the problem of identity of Upper Silesians living in Poland and in Germany in the context of conception of the imaginary community and transnational theory. The issues of the social worlds in which Upper Silesians live in Poland and in Germany will also be tackled. The paper is based on research devoted to the Upper Silesian identity, which I have been conducting for several years in Poland, and recently also in Germany.

The scale and size of post-accession migration of Poles, especially to the British Isles, was surprising not only for the Polish side. The countries that opened their labour markets for the citizens of the new member states also failed to predict such a massive inflow of Polish nationals. Returning to the home country, however, does not get as much media attention as emigrating. This type of migration was not the subject of such heated discussions and analyses as emigration. The objective of the article is to sociologically describe the re-emigrants and answer questions concerning the motives for emigrating and returning, as well as how the emigration decision is assessed in retrospect. The paper is based on in-depth interviews conducted with individuals who had emigrated from Poland following the enlargement of the European Union and decided to return to their home country after a few years. Importantly, in order to detect readaptation problems, the respondents were selected from amongst those remigrants who had already been living in Poland for one to three years. The article shall present the results of these studies and the classifications of emigration, returns and remigrants.
