abstract

The article aims to describe changes in the ways people in developed countries spend their free time and the associated impacts on free time and tourism industries. The first part of the paper is devoted to general trends and theoretical concepts. The second part compares German and Czech societies and shows the impact of changes in the utilization of free time on free time and tourism industries in Germany and Czechia. Data acquired from public surveys in both countries were used for this comparison. Average household expenses for particular services and products, provided by the German and Czech Statistical Offices, were used as a second primary data source. Změny ve způsobu trávení volného času v Německu a v Česku Článek se věnuje problematice způsobu a změn v trávení volného času obyvatel vyspělých zemí a jejich dopadů na průmysl volného času a cestovního ruchu. První část je věnována obecným trendům a teoretickým konceptům. Druhá část je zaměřena na porovnání německého prostředí s českým a naznačení konkrétních dopadů změn v trávení volného času na průmysl volného času a cestovního ruchu. Pro zpracování této části byla využita data vycházející z průzkumů volného času mezi obyvateli obou zemí a data o spotřebním chování obyvatel. Hlavním přínosem studie by měla být určitá predikce vývoje ve zkoumané oblasti a naznačení dalších možných směrů výzkumu.
