The author assumes that historical towns and villages all oveir the [world suffer destruction as a result of economic development. This concerns especially the youngest nations where industrialization happens very rapidly. Factors that break balance between man and his life environment arose as early as in the 19th century. To these factors belongs an incipient idea of new aglomerations which have spread around cities. They lean to historical centres and thus gradually turn into obstacles on the roads that link old towns with the economic base. As early as in the 19th century old — town districts were abandoned and technological achievements bred, prejudice against monuments of the past. The present task of restorers is to reconcile nowaday necessities with the old ones and to evaluate old cities. There is a tendency to destroy these historical centres and the disinclination to lay out money for their restoration is prevalent. We must also pay attention to the fact that the new environment we create is a spiritless and unnatural machine in possession of forms which are strange to us and overpower us. This paradoxical situation is connected with the use of free time it becomes clear that it is insufficient to solve this problem by organizing recreation areas. As they want to overcome inflexibility of modern constructions, people aim at cooperation in creation of new environment in which they would draw a -clear border line between the residential area and the area under protection where there would be room for both nature and historical substance. The author calls for educational campaign which would inform society that monuments intuitively answer their specific needs. The efforts о-f conservators one centred upon revitalization of historical towns which, as it appears is possible. However, the criticism of initiatives in this field reduced to the problem of costs according to the -principle which says that construction is less expensive than reconstruction. But on the other hand, lif we take also into account the value of the regained -environment and qualities that enable to protect men effectively from the loss of spiritual values, work on that reconstruction is cheaper than construction. What is meant here is the reconstruction in which the original character of a -building remains in agreement with the necessities of modern life. Such a historical structure ought to be provided with the possibility to fulfill a fit function when the process of transmission of historical and aesthetic values to the building takes place. Thus reconstruction reguires an appropriate evaluation of the given structure. In the following part of the article the author accuses urbanists of elimination of those historical structures which -they consider unfit to the new -needs. It is a tendency which takes into consideration neither the picture of the whole human life environment nor humanistic culture. It is exactly this culture on which our civilization is based and that is why it is likely to become an essential progress factor. Humanism, however, cannot be understood as privilege of the same -group of people -— it is a -common phenomen which aims at increase of general living standard. Now it is the very moment ti introduce order in the magnificent scientific and technological progress. This progress should help us to overcome the present chaos and to achieve new reality — harmonious and humane.

The problem of conservation and preservation of the old town complexes in urban areas has grown to a subject o f several discussions. An unquestionable need exists to develop more vigorous conservator’s activities in this field and thus the article represents an attempt to define in a possibly precise way the methodical conditions as w e ll as proposals concerning the organization of conservator’s activities with the aim to solve this problem. The methodical proposals take into account the e x isting system and the practice adopted in general town planning, at the same time suggesting to include those responsible for conservation into works aimed at achieving the town planning decisions already at the stage at which the programme outlines for urban plans are being prepared. It follows from the fact that both the functional and conservation programmes, if purposefully defined, w ill in consequence allow the right management and exposure o f an old town complex within the urban area and equally to achieve the due functional interwaeving of the whole town. The defining of a „general function”, an assessment of the absorbability of a complex as w e ll as the many- sided, careful analysis of historical, artistic and educational values possessed by the whole complex and its separate buildings w ill enable the due course of preparing the conservator’s programmatic requirements. From the above a proposal follows to work out the conservator’s requirements within the three stages named below: 1) general studies, including the completing of inventory and historical source materials as well as on-the- spot research, programme outlines for the whole town and careful analysis of materials presented, 2) preliminary programming with selection of general function, assessment of absorbability and defining the basic conservator’s requirements, and 3) proper programming with the final completing and precise formulation of conservator’s requirements, at the same time giving the outlines for town planning decisions w ith in the old town complex as well as for those with concern to its environment. To have the postulated tasks resolved an adequate organizational framework should be created. There is a number of possible solutions of the problem the most right o f them seeming to be a proposal to create the design-and-conservator workteams acting at the level of Culture Departments within the structure o f National Councils as the local government agencies concerned. As to their knowledge activities the above workteams could be subordinated to the Consulting Team acting at the lev e l of the Board o f Museums and Historical Monuments Preservation. The pertinence of principles presented in the article can be practically teeted by their confronting with realities.
