“…Originally, there were thirty (30) thematic categories that were subsequently simplified into the final ten (10) categories, or pillars: Security, Social, Accidents, Economic, Public Affairs, Environmental, Justice, European and International, Education and Science, and Sport [13] (Table 1). A contribution can appear in only one category.…”

“…Correspondence analysis is a very effective tool in visualizing the relationship between two categorical variables, and is based on similar theoretical principles as exploratory factor analysis (EFA) [13]. Cloud lines provide an innovative interactive visualization and data exploration tool that, when used in conjunction with statistical methods, facilitates analysts’ insights and sense-making.…”

Media, and particularly TV media, have a great impact on the general public. In recent years, spatial patterns of information and the relevance of intangible geographies have become increasingly important. Gatekeeping plays a critical role in the selection of information that is transformed into media. Therefore, gatekeeping, through national media, also co-forms the generation of mental maps. In this paper, correspondence analysis (a statistical method) combined with cloud lines (a new visual analytics technique) is used to analyze how individual major regional events in one of the post-communist countries, the Czech Republic, penetrate into the media on a national scale. Although national news should minimize distortions about regions, this assumption has not been verified by our research. Impressions presented by the media of selected regions that were markedly influenced by one or several events in those regions demonstrate that gatekeepers, especially news reporters, functioned as a filter by selecting only a few specific, and in many cases, unusual events for dissemination.

“…Možná více subjektivně, než objektivně. V každém případě opuštěné důlní areály a zpustlé tovární budovy vytvořily negativní obraz regionu, který se promítá do mnoha rovin společenského života: region se potýká s dlouhodobým odlivem obyvatel, sníženým zájmem ze strany cestovního ruchu a omezenou atraktivitou regionu pro všechny zainteresované subjekty (Sucháček et al, 2014). Narušena je sociální skladba obyvatel.…”

“…Yet, there is still a set of barriers when generating renewable energy (Foxon et al, 2005). Despite its environmental benefits, it has to be stressed out that there have been a plenty of scandals accompanying the development of renewable resources applied in the Czech Republic, resulting from the recent misguided supportive policies (Suchacek et al, 2014) and thus, the image of renewable sources has been significantly damaged among the public. However, their environmental benefits when located properly (Van der Horst, 2007) and used reasonably in the context of adaptation to ongoing global climate changes, are obvious.…”

Agricultural anaerobic digestion plants have recently become a typical part of rural landscape in the Czech Republic due to massive governmental subvention programmes. Yet, their potential as an effective tool how to response to global climate changes at a local level is rather underused (maize used as a primary input mainly, usage of waste heat is limited etc.). This situation is caused by misguided subvention policies. The aim of this contribution is first to analyse the agricultural anaerobic digestion plants in the rural space of the Moravian-Silesian Region, and second, to deepen the knowledge on the perception of the digestion plants among the population of municipalities in which such facility was constructed. A questionnaire survey has been carried out in three model municipalities (n=369) located in the Moravian-Silesian Region. Several recommendations and notes for public administration and potential investors concerning the location of future anaerobic digestion plants projects and settings of supportive programmes have been defined.
