The dynamics of this process not only in the Czech environment is mainly due to the developing suburbanization, which in recent decades has been attributed a leading role in the visual and functional transformation of the landscape. In addition to suburbanization, which can be perceived as a process within the urban space, today's society and economy are also influenced by two significant external forces - globalization and technological progress.

Kohl, Ondřej ; Jeleček, Leoš (advisor) ; Ouředníček, Martin (referee)
This text was written as a diploma thesis of master's degree study course "Regional and political geography." It focuses on the development between the last two censuses, of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in the United States. The economic crisis of the late 2000s has been a major turning point of the decade. The goal of the research was to create a developmental typology of the fastest growing metros. The text analyzes "classifiers" data in order to decide what developmental types have been among the metros. A major factor contributing to high population gains in the fastest growing metros was the migration induced by the housing bubble.

Čermáková, Nela
The diploma thesis deals with comparing metropolitan areas in the Czech Republic and France.

This fact is explained by absence of state interest. Due to the high fragmentation of settlement system, not too long support of municipal cooperation is not helpful for this situation.

Next, the level of institutionalization in term of improved the position of metropolitan areas in Czech regional policy is assessed. From the findings about metropolitan governance in France and in other European countries it was possible to construct the suggestions of institutionalization metropolitan areas in Czech Republic.
