regionalization, to determine the factors creating the regionalidentity and identityregions, to find out the spatial reach of the important elements and on that basis work out the regionalization of Slovenia by identityregions. - (IKR)

Traditionally policies for the development of rural areas have focussed on the catching up with core areas. More recently however identity has become a focal point in rural planning. The increasing attention for local identity conflicts
with the overwhelming power of globalisation and standardisation. In this context, the book examines the identity of rural areas. It makes clear that a rural identity is not a natural or objective fact, but is ascribed by actors who have different interests
On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the VUGS, an international congress was organised in 1991. During this congress attention was given to the controversy bvetween regional consciousness and the coherence within and among areas that may

This article is using a conceptual understanding of a region based on the combination of territorial, symbolic and institutional configurations. Regionalidentity that permeates through all of these layers is viewed as one of the most important
elements of the very existence of the region and its recognition in the regional system. This paper contributes to the discussion on the importance of regionalidentity in regional development. The case study of the Bohemian Paradise region proves
the significant influence of landscape features on the process of regionalidentity reproduction. - (EN)
