“…Among demographic processes, population aging stands out in particular. In relation to population aging, topics such as the mobility of the elderly population and preventing their social exclusion (Ahern and Hine, 2012;Shergold and Parkhurst, 2012), the acceptance of digital technologies in service delivery for the elderly (Hodge et al, 2017), healthcare and social care for the elderly (Noack and Bergmann, 2011;Sanglhuber and Schneider, 2015), the concentration of services in so-called rural hubs, and the development of new social gathering places for residents of rural areas (Goodwin-Hawkins, 2020), among others, are discussed. On the other hand, scientists also study changes in services used by the younger population, especially in rural areas, such as school closures (Aasland and Søholt, 2020;Cedering and Wihlborg, 2020;Lehtonen, 2021), and access to services in cities through public transportation (Delclòs-Alió and Miralles-Guasch, 2019).…”

In the scientific community, the concept of services of general interest is relatively new, even though its components have been examined in various ways for several decades. The term "service of general interest" is a political and normative expression introduced by the European Union. While it is challenging to provide a precise definition, services of general interest are generally understood as service activities that public administration bodies in a specific country or region designate as activities contributing to the public welfare. In geographical research, individual elements of this concept are often analysed, such as the provision of infrastructure and services in settlements, the organization of central places, or the accessibility of services in a specific area. This paper aims to organize fundamental knowledge about services of general interest, as found in scientific and professional literature; with the intention of analysing definitions and classifications of these services, exploring the scientific interest in distinct service categories, examining the spatial organization of services, and investigating their accessibility and adaptation in response to modern social, economic, and technological changes.
