“…The importance of studying social stratification in the Visegrad region is supported by numerous recent studies published by Czech [Lux, Sunega and Katrňák 2013;Katrňák and Fónadová 2014;Drahokoupil 2015;Špaček 2016], Hungarian [Albert et al 2018;Kmetty et al 2018], Polish [Zarycki 2015;Domański 2017;Titarenko 2019], and Slovak [Bunčák, Hrabovská and Sopóci 2018a, 2018bDžambazovič, Gerbery and Sopóci 2018;Sopóci et al 2019] scholars. While these studies focus primarily on single countries, we contribute to the existing literature by describing the trend in social differentiation across all four Visegrád countries.…”

This paper focuses on a neglected-horizontal-dimension of social stratification. It examines the patterns of social differentiation in the Visegrád countries (the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia) and attempts to assess changes in the social structure at the subnational level. Social structure changes are explained within the context of broader socioeconomic development. The main analyses performed in this study are based on EU-SILC micro-data covering 2006-2016 and offer a comprehensive perspective on the patterns of social-stratification development at the regional level utilising three dimensions: social class (proxied by the European Social-Economic Classification), highest attained education level, and income. The results indicate different trajectories in social differentiation across the four countries, although some of the patterns identified are similar. The results indicate that the working class is shrinking and the salariat is growing, and that there are declining shares of people with at most primary or secondary education and increasing numbers with tertiary education. Income inequalities remained relatively stable over the observed period across the Czech and Slovak regions, but fluctuated in Hungarian regions, and the initially greater income inequalities in Polish regions have tended to decline over time. The findings suggest that the least favourable patterns in the development of regional social differentiation are found in the Hungarian regions.

“…Priestorové zoskupenia ľudí s rovnakými vlastnosťami sú pomerne častým fenoménom. Priestorové koncentrácie obyvateľov môžu byť utvárané na základe takých faktorov, akými sú napríklad výška príjmu, sociálno-triedne postavenie, etnicita, rasa, národnosť, náboženstvo, jazyk a jeho dialekt, až po kultúrne hodnoty a životný štýl (Džambazovič 2007). Následne pociťovaná kultúrna a sociálna blízkosť vedie k preferencii priestorovo homogamného partnera/partnerky.…”

The choice of a spouse is not a random process. One of its important factors is the place of residence. The main goal of the study was to describe and identify trends in patterns of marital selection behaviour in Slovakia from the point of view of selected geographic characteristics of the spousesʼ place of residence. The obtained results generally confirm the persistence of moderate residential marital homogamy. Moreover, compared to the beginning of the 1990s, its level has risen slightly. It is true that towards a higher administrative unit, the rate of residential marital homogamy increases. It turns out that persons living in municipalities, in urban areas, in the Prešov and Žilina regions, as well as in some border districts in the north and south of Slovakia, choose a spouse from the same environment more often. In the case of entering marriage with a person of foreign nationality, for both sexes, persons from Czechia have the highest share. In other cases, however, it is true that men more often choose a woman from the countries of the former "Eastern Bloc", while women have a greater preference for choosing a husband from countries west of the Iron Curtain.

“…Part of the Roma population living in segregated settlements is considered to be the most exposed to risk of poverty, social exclusion and discrimination. Džambazovič (2007) defines segregated communities as settlements located outside resident municipalities. According to this author, these are settlements formed by concentrated dwellings located far from the village or town, or even separated by a barrier.…”

Spatial isolation and social exclusion of some of the Roma communities have been a long-term issue in specific Slovakia regions. Along with some other factors, these may contribute to poor access to labour markets for Roma residents of such communities. As public transport acts as an important means of mobility of socially excluded residents, we consider the quality and accessibility of the public transport network as an important element that can impact on the spatially isolated Roma’s ability to reach labour markets, as well as services, education, etc. Based on our empirical evidence, this paper aims to provide a better understanding and analysis of the social exclusion of segregated Roma neighbourhoods in the context of spatial exclusion and transport disadvantage related to public transportation accessibility. We tried to focus on physical accessibility of public transport points for the communities, as well as on the quality and frequency of public transport services available at these points for residents of Roma communities. Our research covered three different regions of Eastern Slovakia, where the concentration of Roma communities is high compared to the rest of the country.
