Abstract

The development of international and internal migration in the 1990s in the Czech Republic are analysed. Three phases can be differentiated as to migration across the Czech Republic borders.

The period 1990-1992 when the Czech Republic has become a country of migrational gain; the period 1993-1997 is characterised by international migration increase and the period 1998-1999 by migration intensity decrease. The number of foreigners in the Czech Republic grew more than sixfold in 1990-1999 so that by end of 1999 there were 229 000 foreign nationals living in the country (Slovaks and Ukrainians dominated).

In the 1990s new characteristics features in the internal migration were population concentration halting and subsequent decrease and suburban precesses beginning.
