Fiala, Jan ; Chromý, Pavel (advisor) ; Pileček, Jan (referee)
The subject of research of submitted thesis is a process of space polarization and the analysis of human and social capital in region Rakovnicko, which is in national and regional development documents qualified as a problematic area with lower socialeconomic development. But the interested area is not a compact unit from the space link's point of view it is determined by significant social-economic and social-cultural differentiation. This variety is connected mainly with an existence of "internal periphery" of macrolocational characteristics, whose part can be located mainly along the border of interested area with region Ústecký and Plzeňský (Fiala, 2007). Previous surveies show, - 8 - that insufficient engagement of mayors and key figures of regional development and also insufficient cooperation of villages within the scope of microregional unions contributes to today's peripheral situation of many villages. In the submitted thesis we will try to make an analysis of differentiation of human and social potential in internal peripheries, that hasn't been sufficiently solved yet, respectively relation between the existence of problematic, peripheral area and the quality of human and social capital.

Territorial Differentiation of Elementary Education in Czechia during the 2nd Half of the 20th Century (Its Influence on Local and Regional Development)
Kučerová, Silvie ; Chromý, Pavel (advisor) ; Anděl, Jiří (referee) ; Siwek, Tadeusz (referee)
Územní diferenciace elementárního vzdělávání v Česku v 2. polovině 20. století (Vliv na lokální a regionální rozvoj) Od druhé poloviny 20. století jsme v mnoha hospodářsky vyspělých zemích, Česko nevyjímaje, svědky procesu výrazné polarizace prostoru v souvislosti se změnami v rozmístění elementárních škol. Masové uzavírání škol, zejména na venkově, a koncentrace vzdělávací funkce do center regionů vychází z obecných procesů, jakými jsou změny geografické organizace společnosti, stejně jako ze specifických historických podmínek v každé zemi. V této práci se na příkladu Česka pokusíme představit pomocí metod, jež jsou geografům vlastní, změny, které proběhly v síti elementárních škol. Dále budeme specifikovat vybrané důsledky tohoto procesu na stabilitu a fungování lokálních komunit a jeho vliv na marginalizaci obcí. ABSTRACT Territorial Differentiation of Elementary Education in Czechia during the Second Half of the Twentieth Century (Its Influence on Local and Regional Development) We are all witnesses to a process of extensive spatial polarization in the distribution of elementary schools in many economically developed countries, including Czechia, during the second half of the 20th and in the 21st century. Processes of mass school closures, especially in rural areas, and the concentration of...

Sense of National and Regional Identity of Hungarian High School Students in Slovakia
Orosz, Örs ; Chromý, Pavel (advisor) ; Jehlička, Petr (referee)
Klíčová slova: identita, vlast, diskriminace, slovensko-maďarské vztahy, volební chování, Maďaři na Slovensku, percepce budoucnosti Práce se zabývá výzkumem národní a regionální identity maďarských středoškoláků na Slovensku. Je zaměřená na příčiny vzniku různých postojů, ale též se pokusí prezentovat vnímání a plánování budoucnosti cílové skupiny. Co považují respondenti za vlast a s jakými řádovostními úrovněmi (od místa bydliště až po Evropu) cítí sounáležitost? Jaký mají vztah k většinovému národu? Šetření provedené na 32 středních školách jižního Slovenska s účastí 1142 maturujících studentů, hledá odpovědi na takové a jim podobné otázky. Výsledky výzkumu poukazují na složitost slovensko-maďarských vztahů, na něž nelze nahlížet dichotomicky, jak to dělají aktéři vysoké politiky. Dvě třetiny maďarských maturantů si představuje svoji budoucnost ve své vlasti. Stát se ale stává vlastí tehdy, pokud vytvoří pocit domova pro své občany a respektuje jejich lidskou důstojnost, svobodu a identitu. S vytvářením tolerantního prostředí pro menšinu, by se ve velké míře dalo přispět k přesvědčení i té třetiny, která plánuje svou budoucnost mimo území Slovenska. Dle našich výsledků je mládež otevřená a je připravená na aktivní kooperaci.
