Výzkum disparit v procesu revitalizace brownfields v malých obcích a městech

Abstract

The theme of the dissertation is research work of relevant attributes affecting, respectively contributing to the success of a revitalization of brownfields mainly in the small municipalities. The terms "brownfields regeneration" and "disparities" were discussed a lot in recent years and became the topic of many projects and research work. The research has dealt so far with an issue of determining disparities in the municipalities of the Czech Republic, including small municipalities, but their subsequent application was usually introduced in cities. Focus on smaller municipalities and towns, was usually discussed only in general terms. In the introduction to the dissertation a summary of theoretical knowledge in the area of brownfields revitalization, including a brief summary of major projects and revitalizations are processed. Then the terms “small town” and “disparity approach” are described. A definition of the level of the knowledge of the theme is an essential step for more effective determination of disparities. An approach to the theme will be hierarchical, so that in the introduction the disparities will be determined based on the information about sites that have been revitalized successfully. For the purpose of dissertation, it was determined that a small village or town is an area with no more than 5,000 inhabitants. Using properly selected statistical methods there will be determined an overview of disparities and their weights, which significantly influence the success of revitalization. A significant part of the dissertation will be a determination of the assessing model in the disparities evaluation area. An integral part of the work will be a comparison of international approaches in the process of brownfields revitalization. The results and outputs of dissertation are mainly intended for wide professional public and as a studying aid for secondary school and university students. The work might also be an important methodological aid intended for the municipalities’ representatives in the decision-making process in the area of brownfield regeneration.
