Abstract
The thesis consists of two parts. The first part presents theoretical and methodological input into the issues of everyday life and its spatial aspects.
It introduces the theoretical approaches in geography, which explores the different ways of the relationship between man and space, and together they provide a framework for the study of everyday life and its conditionality in subjective and objective level. The thesis also tries to define the position of geography in everyday life research and presents its spatial aspects.
The first part concludes with a discussion of methodological approaches. The second part consists of four publications that deal with various aspects of everyday life and places.
The first presents theoretical and methodological contribution to the concept of place rhythm. The other three publications are empirical studies of the city centre, suburbs and peripheral municipalities.
