Urban social problems and
marginalized populations in post-socialist transition societies: Perceptions of
the city centre of Prague, the Czechia
The study of social problems and
marginalization in urban space has a long tradition in Western scholarly research.
However there have been far fewer studies of these issues in the countries of
Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). Moreover most authors use only statistical
data to examine them. Thus we have decided to offer a perspective on the
perception of social problems and marginalization
in post-socialist urban societies. Using Prague
city centre as a case study, we showed how social problems are perceived, interpreted, localized and dealt
with by key actors in the city’s
social development.
