The spatial polarisation of society is open to various research per- spectives. It takes several forms and involves various epiphenomena. Con- sequently, it is the subject of research interest to scholars in various fi elds, especially sociologists, economists, regionalists, and regional geographers. The article focuses on selected aspects of peripherality and peripheral regions. The fi rst part is devoted to the theoretical aspects of the polarisation of so- ciety, developmental interactions between the centre and the periphery, the relationship between peripherality and levels of hierarchy, peripherality and time, and the primary criteria of peripherality in inland and borderland re- gions. The second part applies theoretical-methodological fi ndings to regions of Slovakia using selected quantitative methods. The author attempts to de- scribe peripherality in multidimensional terms, and to identify the intercon- nections between various types of peripherality. Based on detailed statistical data on municipalities, he uses a broad range of indicators divided into four groups: human resources, economic potential, personal amenities, and access to centres. In conclusion the author identifi es and categorises the peripheral regions of Slovakia and notes the existence of peripherality at regional and local levels.
