Regional Identity or Identity of Region? The Case of Czech Counties
Original language description
This chapter focuses on the process of establishing the second level of local government in the Czech Republic - counties - the background of changes in local and national politics and its lack of association with manifestations of regional identity. Thecounty councils are the newest democratically elected political bodies in the Czech Republic. From the point of view of the process of democratization, the counties were belatedly and artificially created. Under these circumstances, the formation of thecounties, as well as their continued existence, is more problematic than the local level of government from the perspectives of territorial identity and civil society. The chapter addresses the question of whether democratically elected representativesof a county are able to provide the impulse for the creation of a regional identity and under what circumstances.
