| Popis | This paper aims at understanding changes in industrial employment in the Czech Republic and discovering whether these changes have caused problems in the development of Czech cities which used to be highly industrialized in the past. The first goal will be achieved by analysing statistical data on industrial employment in the Czech Republic and showing an example of the economic base of the city of Ostrava. For the second part of research, the method of semi-structured interviews with city authority representatives was chosen to provide information on the contemporary challenges that Czech cities have faced in relation to economic transformation. The results demonstrate that the economic base of the model city and employment in industrial sectors have changed dramatically since 1987. The biggest problems that cities have had are connected with attracting new employers and being given little support for their development goals by other authorities. |
