Analysis of spatial and aspatial characteristics of peripherality on the example of Rožmitálsko

The bachelor thesis deals with evaluation of peripherality of municipalities in the model area of Rožmitálsko by means of spatial and so-called "aspatial" characteristics (features). The aim of the thesis is a comparison of municipalities in the area under study by way of the standardized variable method and through identification of their development possibilities. The introductory part is devoted to theoretical definitions of basic terms related to peripheral areas and to discussion of relevant sources of literature. Attention is paid also to discussion of studies concerning research of peripheral areas in Czechia. The next part of the work is dedicated to determination of methods for the analysis; the characterisation of the model area follows. In the main empirical part of the work, the chosen methodological basis is applied on the model area of Rožmitálsko. The evaluation of peripherality of the municipalities in the model area is implemented using primary and available secondary data. The conclusion summarizes the obtained findings and formulates suggestions in terms of further development of the municipalities of the model area
