Področje raziskovanja
My broad area of research is human geography, and within that cultural, economic and urban geography. I am particularly interested in the social, economic and cultural manifestations of small and medium-sized cities, their endogenous development potentials and the external conditions that influence their development. I publish my research findings in foreign and national scientific journals such as City, Culture and Society; Innovation: The European Journal of Social Science Research; Moravian Geographical Reports; Bulletin of Geography, Socio-Economic Series; Hungarian Geographical Bulletin; Acta Geographica Slovenica; Urban Challenge and Geographical Bulletin.
