The Social Impact of the Process of Depopulation of Villages
HENDRYCHOVÁ, Eva
This bachelor thesis deals with the process of depopulation of rural areas and its social impact. It focuses on the area of Český Krumlov defined by the administrative district of the municipality of Český Krumlov. The process of depopulation of rural areas is regarded as a natural part of the development of domestic migration, whose social consequences, however, to various degrees negatively influence individual rural municipalities as their future wellbeing depends largely on the quality of life of their inhabitants. The thesis is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part includes characteristics and typology of rural environment, the description of its life style including the positive as well as negative social aspects, processes of domestic migration influencing rural areas, and the way to ensure its future, which lies in local planning and the development of social services based on a community-managed medium-term planning of social services. The practical part focuses on fulfilling the goal of the thesis, which is defining the trends in the process of moving from villages to cities, and social impacts of the process from the point of view of the mayors of Český Krumlov area municipalities. Within my qualitative research strategy. I headed towards my goal with the help of a questioning method and a technique of semi-structured interview. The questions used in the thesis are the following: "What are, according to the mayors, the reasons that make people move out of villages?", "How does the decrease in population show in the day-to-day village life?", " How do villages motivate people to stay and live there?". The communication partners were five mayors from selected municipalities in the region of Český Krumlov. The results of the thesis may be used as an aid for the strategy planning of rural municipalities and for enhancing the quality of everyday life of their inhabitants. At the same time the thesis may serve as a tool for increasing the awareness of inhabitants of the areas of Český Krumlov when it comes to domestic migration.
