| Abstract [eng] |
There are a lot of scientific papers, which theoretically or practically accentuate the topic of peripherality, however, the conception of peripheral region is not still clearly and finally defined, moreover, it is rarely talked about the process of peripheralisation or the level of peripherality of region is determined. It is felt the lack of the geographic-complex view to the periphery. While analyzing the selected problem the integration of sciences is one of the main recommendations as the narrow attitude to the periphery does not conform to the topicalities of these days because it stops not only the development of conception of object but also limits the cognitive possibilities of periphery itself as the territorial phenomenon. By this scientific paper it is tried to fill the deficient part of researches on peripherality and add to the development of complex geographical conception of periphery. In the dissertation thesis the complex evaluation is performed taking into account seven aspects: dislocation, demographic, social, economic, cultural, political and natural. This dissertation paper is an attempt to present the complex attitude to the periphery while including the indicators of various fields, with reference to the values of statistical indicators to distinguish the peripheral regions of different level peripherality in the territory of Lithuania. |
