    LEARNING IN THE MOUNTAINS OF KRAKONOŠ According to folklore, Krakonoš has been the guardian of the mountains and the surrounding district of Semily, in the North Eastern part of the Czech Republic, for many centuries. Apart from dictating the weather, this wise old man has watched over the local people, ensuring good things happen to those who are kind, and punishing those who are bad. With such a well-known and emblematic figure, it is hardly surprising that Krakonoš has been chosen to represent Semily's EQUAL project, Facilitation of Lifelong Education in Rural Conditions: "If Krakonoš cannot come down from the mountain to a computer, why not bring the computer to him!" This slogan captures perfectly the essence of the project: to bring learning opportunities directly to people living in remote, rural locations, people who have been severely affected by acute structural changes that have occurred across the Czech Republic in recent times. Prior to the 1990s, Semily district was traditionally based on agriculture and the textile industry. However, since that time, the opening up of markets and increased exposure to global competition, particularly from China, has led to the rapid decline of this thriving economy. And what is now left is a region in a state of transformation, having to adapt in order to remain a prosperous place to work and live. But this transformation has not been easy: local people have lacked the skills and knowledge to take on new jobs in emerging sectors, such as tourism; younger and more qualified people have been moving to nearby towns and cities; more vulnerable and less mobile populations have been left behind or at risk of exclusion, including women with childcare responsibilities, the over 50s, people with disabilities, the low-skilled and those laid-off from work; Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have not been fully embraced owing to their high cost and accessibility; and limited public transport services and infrastructure have formed a major barrier to accessing work and learning opportunities.

It tries to find and map differences in geographical (spatial) distribution of several types of such political civil activities and to determine some key geographical or geographi- cally distributed factors with an impact on it.

Žaneta Málková ANOTACE Předkládaná práce se zabývá protinacistickým odbojem, a to jak demokratickým, tak i komunistickým, na území politického okresu Semily v letech 1939–1945. Snaží se postihnout vznik a vývoj odbojového hnutí na semilském okrese v období nacistické okupace na základě archivních pramenů a sekundární literatury. Práce je členěna do pěti kapitol. První kapitola sleduje formování vojenské organizace Obrana národa na semilském okrese od jara do podzimu 1939, její spolupráci se semilskou skupinou V boj a napojení semilského okresu na Petiční výbor Věrni zůstaneme. Paralelně se také zabývá komunistickým odbojem do léta 1939. Druhá kapitola dále zachycuje uvedené odbojové organizace od podzimu 1939 do léta 1941. V tomto období, konkrétně od zimy roku 1940 byla mohutně se rozrůstající Obrana národa postižena rozsáhlým zatýkáním.
