Certain places (particularly the central and local governments) more and more often use the field of sports within the framework of their place marketing activities to attract the economic actors, tourists and inhabitants. The study outlines
and underdevelopment. The States often operate on the basis of the principle of the “absolute dominion on own territory” with the affirmation of the absolute sovereignty of who it governs to the detriment of the population and, more and more, of the minorities. - (NF)
Today in the UK, the population is again as unequal as it was around 1918. For 60 years it became more equal, but for the last 30 years, more unequal. Closer inspection of the time series suggests there were key times when the trends changed
direction. With all three main parties offering what may appear to be very similar solutions to the issue of reducing inequality it seems unlikely that voting in 2010 will make much of a difference. The last two times that the direction of trends
Economic growth and development theories have neglected the role of knowledge and space for a long time. However, it is widely accepted that knowledge has played a more and more important role in economic development, and—due to its spatial
This study combines the alluvial archive with flood records from bedrock reaches to generate a probability-based 12,000 year record of flooding in south-western USA. Using more than 700 14C-dated fluvial units, the analysis produces a high
resolution (centennial) flood record. Seven episodes of increased flooding occurred. Bedrock reaches are found to record more frequent floods during the middle to late Holocene, while in alluvial rivers more flood units are dated to the early and middle
A calibration curve was derived from 5 sites of known age and adapted to the prevailing size of talus boulders in the Finstertal valley (Austria). The AA. measured the 5 largest lichens on more than 300 boulders and the percentage coverage
of Rhizocarpon-free clasts on more than 1000 test fields. Considerably enhanced activity was found under rockwalls influenced by permafrost, particularly on the north faces at an elevation of >2600 m a.s.l. At currently moderately active sites, boulder falls seem
to have been slightly more frequent in the late nineteenth and first half of the twentieth century. Rockwall retreat rates derived from lichen coverage are higher than the rates derived from direct rockfall measurements. The rates derived from lichen
The paper puts forward a retheorisation of urban agonistic politics, using phenomenology to reground theories of agonism in a more explicitly spatial register. The A. theorises the city, in terms of its potential, in a utopian or humane fashion

to highlight the necessity of, brotherhood and unity among European nations. Perhaps even more significantly, the liquidation of political borders and the creation of a commonwealth of free states on the European continent is also promoted strongly in the works
and is the second-oldest Slovenian geographical journal. Volume 50 was published in 2010, and this article is dedicated to this special anniversary. In all the volumes, a total of 273 research articles have been published on more than 12.000 pages. - (L'A.).
The paper analyzes data on tourist arrivals in Slovenian municipalities. It focuses on the question to what extent the structure of tourist arrivals is more or less heterogeneous in regard to the nationality of tourists visiting these municipalities
demonstrate very different flow patterns and morphological characteristics relative to the more commonly studied wide, shallow channels with more abundant sediment.
. These interactions are fundamental to flood risk, lateral channel adjustment, and habitat and ecology; thus, they require a more concentrated research effort. Central to this is a more holistic approach to catchment operations and a greater understanding of the links
