Abstract

The article deals with the question "Where should Czech geography go?". Its main objective is to challenge the fragmented postmodern alternative.

A more dominant focus on theory building and testing is perceived as a pathway to the integrative structuration of the field and also as the pathway to more intensive and productive contacts with practice
