Thus, the collection is primarily about barriers, their nature, localization, and possible effects. Under barriers, most people imagine material barriers for wheelchair users in the form of steps or sidewalk curbs. Only a few would think that barriers can be represented by loosely placed rugs, unfit lighting, large glass surface, a doorbell without visual output, unwanted attention, frequent asking and offering help, lack of language knowledge, pity, etc. Thus, the book broadens awareness of what can be considered a barrier. The texts are divided into three parts ? theoretical, methodic, and empirical ? and their arrangement follows the logic of thematic focusing from the most general to the most concrete types of barriers. While the theoretical part places the policies of accessibility into the wider context of scientific disciplines and their development ? such as disability studies, disability geography or service design, the methodic part discusses the introduction of accessibility policies in the city of Brno, describing how it tried to make its space, services, and information more accessible. Finally, the empirical part offers 18 examples of relatively good barrier-free implementations that have been recently realized in Brno. This division reflects an effort to target several groups of readers. The first part thus addresses mainly students interested in accessibility issues, the second, methodic part is intended for politicians and municipalities searching for inspiration to implement their own accessibility measures and policies. The last part stating concrete examples of good barrier-free implementations is aimed at general public, at people who like to think about a whole range of topics related to accessibility of space, services, and information. 517 $aGeografie bariĂr 517 $aGeografie bariér 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aEnvironmental geography 606 $aPublic administration 606 $aGovernment/Political systems 606 $aSocial development 606 $aDifferentiation (Sociology) 606 $aHealth and medicine and law 606 $aRural and urban sociology 606 $aEnvironmental interactions 606 $aICT Information and Communications Technologies 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aEnvironmental geography. 615 0$aPublic administration. 615 0$aGovernment/Political systems 615 0$aSocial development 615 0$aDifferentiation (Sociology) 615 0$aHealth and medicine and law 615 0$aRural and urban sociology 615 0$aEnvironmental interactions 615 0$aICT Information and Communications Technologies 700 $aOsman$b Robert$01435734 712 02$aCentral and Eastern European Online Library 801 0$bceeol 801 1$bceeol 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557652003321 996 $aGeografie bariér, P?íklady dobrých bezbariérových realizací$93593632 997 $aUNINA
