This article presents cultivated terraces as social and economic landscape elements that are closely connected with natural conditions. The theoretical part, which presents some of the professional ...activities connected with terraced landscapes and examples of studying them around the globe, is followed by a detailed presentation of the features of the unique terraced landscape in the Brkini Hills, Slovenia. Its features, changes, and development trends are placed within the context of the natural features of the area studied, especially its relief conditions and aspect, as well as unfavorable demographic characteristics and modern agricultural trends. Despite modern mechanized farming, the remaining farmers are finding it increasingly more difficult to maintain the cultural landscape. The former tilled terraces were converted into meadows decades ago. Many terraces are being overgrown. Afforestation threatens the future existence of cultural landscapes and affects their development potential and significance as a cultural value.
Obravnavan je položaj geografije podeželja v slovenski geografiji. Uporabljeni so bili nekateri podatki o pojavljanju geografije podeželja v različnih študijskih programih in bibliografski podatki o ...obsegu gradiva s tega področja v osrednji geografski knjižnici. Podan je pregled geografskih del, ki bi jih lahko uvrstili v okvir aplikativne geografije podeželja in opredeljene njene možnosti za uporabo v projektih celostnega razvoja podeželja v Sloveniji.
Monitoring the transformation of the Slovene countryside revealed that there are relatively heavily urbanized flatland and valley areas, and on the other, peripheral areas where depopulation and the ...disintegration of the cultural landscape are increasingly pronounced.For the evaluation of the countryside and its typological division, objective criteria are selected that reflect the natural conditions, the principal characteristics of agriculture, and the fundamental demographic, economic, functional, housing, infrastructural, and environmental conditions. Overall, the evaluation is based on the level of individual settlements which enables thorough spatial differentiation. A complex evaluation is carried out by establishing the value and representation of individual groups of parameters and their corresponding weights. On the basis of partial syntheses, two synthetic maps of developmental movements in the countryside are presented that provide a solid foundation in the effort to ensure harmonious regional development.
Pretežno gozdnato območje občine Loški Potok je ob prehodu v tržnogospodarstvo in ob osamosvojitvi Slovenije precej prizadel propad večineindustrijskih obratov. Odmaknjenost območja je še dodatno ...poglobila prob-lematiko pomanjkanja delovnih mest. V članku so podani nekateri predlogiza omilitev posledic negativnih procesov ter konkretni predlogi za nadaljnirazvoj občine.
Članek predstavlja metodologijo vrednotenja podeželskega prostora z vidika kmetijstva in pozidave. Kriteriji primernosti površin za njive, vinograde, sadovnjake, travnike in pozidavo so ...fizičnogeografski dejavniki. Poudarek je na geografskem informacijskem sistemu, na kvantitativnih metodah in ponderiranju - oceni teže geoekoloških dejavnikov v primeru različnih tipov rabe tal.
