Abstract

In terms of their geographical definition, decentralised and central locations are inseparable from each other. Centres influence cities, both in their dominance over competing cities and in their regional development – decentralised locations in the context of such urban structures are an important stimulus for innovation. Centres exert significant influence on the evolution and development of density of the location, on the economy, the environment, social infrastructure and on society in general. These interlinked factors describe urban space, meaning the concentration of a wide range of products and services on offer in a confined space.
