The contemporary socio-spatial differentiation of the Czech Republic is the focus of this article. The main aim is (1) to identify spatial clusters of municipalities formed by similar structural and developmental socioeconomic characteristics, and (2) to uncover the basic socioeconomic factors of the spatial differentiation of municipalities. To achieve the proposed aims a unique dataset covering a wide range of social, demographic, and economic variables at the municipal level is used. The principles of spatial autocorrelations (LISA – local indicators of spatial association) are employed. Very distinct connections between the statistical and the spatial variation of different variables were found, which indicates that the absence of a simple connection between the vertical and the horizontal differentiation of society. From a methodological perspective this article’s major contribution is the construction and testing of procedures which can be used to synthesise the results of the LISA analyses. The synthesis uncovers basic spatial patterns of development mirrored in the formation of the growth and decline poles and axes. The results of cluster analyses indicate the spatial stability and inner homogeneity of the growth areas. Conversely, areas in decline are characterised by a very heterogeneous set of variables differing from region to region.

The aim of the pilot study is to examine the possibilities of mobile phone location data in geographical research of the everyday life and individual spatial mobility of the population. Developing and testing a new research instrument thus represent the key aims of the pilot study. The proposed technique is ‘tried out’ on a group of young people living or working in Prague. Their daily activities and spatial mobility are explored and discussed against the everyday and geographical context of the young people´s lives. Theoretically the study draws on the strong tradition of time geography as well as on the new geography of everyday life. Methodologically the research combines two different types of data sources and the relevant analytical tools. First, mobile phone location data are used to record the daily trajectories of the participants. Second, deep interpretative interviews are carried out to understand the reasons and motives behind the recorded daily trajectories. Despite a few technical obstacles in mobile phone location data processing, the pilot study proved the very promising potential of this source, especially in combination with interviews, when studying the patterns of the everyday life and individual spatial mobility of an urban population.

The availability of labour, education, services and transportation significantly infl uences the quality of life in urban and rural areas. The supply of job opportunities and services is not suffi cient in rural and peripheral villages and particularly young and well-educated people often respond by migrating. The people who remain cope with the problems of accessibility by various commuting methods. However, the poor supply of jobs and social infrastructure may be a source of considerable problems for less mobile people trying to satisfy basic needs. This article employs in-depth case study research to evaluate the daily mobility of people in peripheral municipalities in Western Bohemia. It aims to identify the problems and barriers in the everyday life of the local population and to identify forms of daily mobility related to work and service provision. It evaluates how the lack of job opportunities and basic civic amenities infl uences the everyday strategies that people adopt to cope with the spatial mismatch between the place of residence and the place where jobs and services are located. The daily mobility and strategies of people living in municipalities are set in the context of post-communist changes in commuting behaviour. Theoretically and methodologically the article draws on the strong tradition of time geography.
