Avtor v uvodu analizira izobrazbeno sestavo prebivalstva v večjih slovenskih mestih in jo primerja s sestavo v mestu Maribor, ki je drugo največje univerzitetno mesto v Sloveniji. Ugotavlja, da sodi Maribor med mesta z najvišjim deležem prebivalstva z doseženo terciarno izobrazbo v Sloveniji, vendar pa je v mestu še vedno z nadpovprečnim deležem zastopano prebivalstva s srednješolsko izobrazbo, kar je posledica intenzivnega razvoja industrijske dejavnosti v preteklih desetletjih. V nadaljevanju analizira razmere v posameznih delih mesta in ugotovi pomembne razlike med posameznimi deli mesta. Območje na levem bregu Drave izkazuje višji delež prebivalstva s terciarno izobrazbo, medtem ko območja na desnem bregu, zlasti na območjih starejše pozidave iz 50., 60. in 70. let 20. stoletja ter ob starejših industrijskih conah, izkazujejo višji delež prebivalstva z osnovnošolsko izobrazbo. In the introduction, the author analyzes the educational structure of the population (by educational attainment level) in the larger Slovene towns, and compares it with the structure in Maribor, which is the second largest university town in Slovenia. He finds that Maribor is among the cities with the highest percentage of population with a tertiary education in Slovenia, but the population with a secondary education is still above the average, which is a result of the intensive development of industrial activity in the past decades. Continuing, he analyzes the situation in individual parts of the city of Maribor, and finds important differences between the individual parts of the city. The area on the left bank of the Drava River shows a higher proportion of population with tertiary education, while the areas on the right bank, especially the areas with older buildings constructed in the fifties, sixties, and seventies, and the areas around the older industrial zones show a higher proportion of population with primary education.

V prispevku so prikazane nekatere socialne razmere v Sloveniji na podlagi izbranih kazalcev. Kazalce socialnih razmer smo razdelili v štiri sklope, in sicer: vitalnost prebivalstva, socialna infrastruktura, materialno blagostanje ljudi ter socialno ranljive skupine prebivalcev. Podatki so zbrani in prikazani na nivoju statističnih regij. Rezultati analize podatkov niso obetavni. Slovensko prebivalstvo se hitro stara, demografska rast je posledica priseljevanj in ne naravne rasti, socialna neenakost se povečuje, obseg sredstev za socialne namene v državnem proračunu se zmanjšuje, število socialno ranljivih oseb narašča, regionalne razlike se povečujejo. The paper shows some characteristics of social structure of Slovenia. The elements of social structure are discussed in four groups: vitality of population, social infrastructure, material wealth of population and social vulnerable social groups. The situation in discussed areas is not very promising. The population is ageing rapidly the trends of demographic growth are not favourable because the number of people is growing due to immigration and not due to natural growth social inequality is growing, social systems prevent social collapse budget expenditures in the future will show the most severe cuts into social activities while regional differences will not decrease but rather the opposite. The number of people risking poverty has been increasing, so are the numbers of recipients of social support.

Avtor v uvodu analizira starostno sestavo prebivalstva v večjih slovenskih mestih in jo primerja s sestavo v mestu Maribor. Ugotavlja, da Maribor izkazuje najvišji delež starejšega prebivalstva in najvišji indeks staranja. V nadaljevanju analizira demografske razmere v 38 krajevnih skupnostih v mestu v obdobju med letoma 1981 in 2015. Ugotavlja, da se proces staranja razlikuje po posameznih delih mesta. V začetnem obdobju so bile najbolj neugodne razmere v starejšem delu mesta na levem bregu reke Drave, v zadnjem desetletju pa je staranje prebivalstva bolj izrazito v starejših t. im. delavskih stanovanjskih soseskah na desnem bregu, kamor se je mesto širilo v 60., 70. in 80. letih 20. stoletja in se je v njih vselila starostno dokaj homogena populacija. Na drugi strani se znotraj mesta kažejo ugodne demografske razmere v tistih območjih, v katerih je prišlo do sanacije in revitalizacije. In the introduction, the author analyzed the age composition of the population in larger Slovene towns and compares it with the composition in the city of Maribor. He noted that Maribor has the highest share of the older population, and the highest aging index. Further is analyzed the demographic situation in 38 local communities in the city between 1981 and 2015. It’s noted that the aging process varies in different parts of the city. In the initial period, the most unfavorable conditions were in the older part of the city on the left bank of the Drava River. During the demographic changes in the last decade, the aging of the population was more intensive in older so-called workers’ residential neighborhoods in the southern part of the town (on the right bank), where the city expanded in the 60s, 70s and 80s of the 20th century. In them a relatively age-homogeneous population was moved in at the time. On the other hand, the current situation within the older part of the city also shows favorable demographic conditions in those areas where reconstructions and revitalization occurred.

The basic premise of this paper is that certain factors of the socio-geographic structure of mountain farms have an influence upon succession on these farms. The conducted survey confirmed this hypothesis. The most prominent influence that was observed included factors that reflect the tradition and the opinions of the householders, and especially that express the economic power of a farm. In the conclusion of this paper, we offer some solutions regarding the problem of succession in Slovene mountain farms. These solutions are not simple, due to the complex mixed rate of influence with respect to the various factors.

Prostovoljno povezovanje občin kot predpostavka trajnostnega razvoja podeželskih območij izkušnje Češke republike V prispevku je predstavljena analiza sedanjega stanja in perspektive prostovoljnega povezovanja občin in mest v tako imenovane mikroregije v Češki republiki. Avtor analizira probleme in določa dejavnike, ki vplivajo na delovanje mikroregij. V zaključku podaja priporočila, ki naj vodijo k bolj učinkovitemu delovanju mikroregionalnega sodelovanja, ki je zlasti pomembno v razvoju pretežno ruralnih območij. Prispevek je rezultat raziskovalnega projekta Regionalni management kot pot k trajnostnemu razvoju podeželskih območij, ki je bil izdelan v okviru Ministrstva za lokalni razvoj ČR. The paper deals with an analysis of a current state and perspectives of voluntary associations of municipalities and towns, so-called microregions in the Czech Republic. It analyses problem fields and identifies factors which influence effective function of the microregions. In the conclusion of the article we mention some recommendations, which should lead to more effective activities of microregional cooperation, as a significant assumption of mainly rural areas development. The paper is the output of the solution of the Ministry for Local Development´s project ‘Regional management like a way to sustainable development of rural areas‘.

Z analizo zemljiškoposestnih in zaposlitvenih značilnosti so opredeljeni nekateri elementi čezmejne regionalne povezanosti prebivalstva petih občin sevsrovzhodne Slovenije ob državni meji s Hrvaško. Stopnja dosedanje povezanosti je bila zaradi odprtosti nekdanje medrepubliške meje zelo visoka, zato bo prepustnost nove meje v prihodnje pomemeben dejavnik družbenoekonomskega razvoja tamkajšnjih manj razvitih območij. On the basis of the analysis of the characteristics of landed property and employment some elements of across the border regional links of five communities in the northeastern part of Slovenia along the State boundary with Croatia have been defined. The level of such connections up till now was, due to the opennes of the former border between the republics, very high. Therefore, the future permeability of the new border will become one of the key elements in the social-economic development of those under-developed regions.
