Název v původním jazyce

The perception of historical and present-day regional boundaries by the society of Czechia

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The study addresses the question: How does contemporary Czech society perceive historical and present-day boundaries, and what role do these perceptions play in shaping regional identity? Using mental and participatory mapping, the authors analyse how today’s inhabitants of Czechia perceive geographical space through boundaries defined by historical, cultural, administrative, and subjective factors. The research is based on a large-scale questionnaire survey and employs geographic information system (GIS) tools. Particular attention is paid to generational differences, educational and regional backgrounds, and how regional identity is reflected in respondents’ mental maps. The study integrates approaches from the humanities, social sciences, and technical disciplines, offering an interdisciplinary framework for analysing boundaries in space. The findings demonstrate that while some boundary perceptions remain deeply rooted in history, others are shaped by contemporary socio-cultural influences. The combined methodological approach of participatory mapping and historical contextualization provides new insights into evolving boundary perceptions and contributes to the theoretical development of spatial identity studies.
