Abstract

Economic and social processes’ characteristic of the end of the twentieth century manifested themselves through new ways of organizing space and new patterns of mobility and location of population, activities and labor force, both at urban and regional levels (in the territory adjacent to urban centers). In addition to these changes, extensive urban development, due to demand of land for development and decline of interest in practice primary activities, is reflected in the extra-urban territory, also on landscape perception and use.
