2013
Slavomír BUCHER | Alena LUKÁČOVÁ
The article explores the formation of regional identity with regard to scale and topic in works and final thesis of Slovak geography students from selected geographic institutions and departments. Taking into account papers and diploma thesis of students, we tried to discover how the authors perceive and form the image of a region of the theme and spatial scale of their works. If geographers in their publications and articles deal with specific topics of their subject research area - physical geography, settlement systems, composed of urban centres, economic activities in the region, or spatial intra-regional relations, thus they are forming the space material base, indispensable for the development of regional consciousness and identity itself.
