Abstract

ORIG CZ

V originále

This contribution applies a functional-spatial perspective to the study of small and medium-sized towns. A methodology for functional analysis is developed and tested to identify towns, distinguish towns from cities, and detect town positionality within urban territorial arrangements, focusing on whether they are autonomous, networked with other towns or agglomerated with large cities. The methodology is used to compare settlement systems in two regions and two countries in Europe by looking at the existence and nature of networks between towns and cities and how towns perform in terms of population and jobs in respect of their belonging to different types of territorial arrangement.

In Czech

Tento příspěvek využívá funkčně-prostorový přístup ke studiu malých a středně velkých měst. Předkládá metodiku funkční analýzy k identifikaci malých a středních měst, resp. velkých měst; metodika dále umožňuje hodnotit pozici města v rámci sídelního uspořádání s důrazem na identifikaci autonomních měst, měst zapojených do síťových vazeb a měst aglomerovaných k velkým městským sídlům. Metodika je využita ke komparaci sídelních systémů ve dvou regionech a dvou evropských zemích - sledována je přítomnost meziměstských vazeb a postavení měst z hlediska pracovní a populační velikosti.
