| Description | The town Veselí nad Moravou was a part of the Uherské Hradiště township from the beginning of historic townships in Moravia until the mid-19th century; later it became part of the political district of Uherské Hradiště. The administrative reform of 1960, however, included the town and its hinterland in the Hodonín district in the South Moravia Region. The aim of this paper is to assess whether the traditional links of this town to Uherské Hradiště remain sustained at present or whether the citizens in Veselí nad Moravou and its hinterland rather consider the town of Hodonín to be for them a centre of higher order. The question was answered through the analysis of a questionnaire survey conducted in the concerned territory. |
