In this article we present the basic methodological points and results of departure for the bilateral research project whose main objective was to study the condition of small cities in the Czech Republic and in Slovenia in light of their prospects for sustainable development. The level of sustainable development achieved by small towns was assessed using a range of accessible and mutually comparable indicators from three fields of urban sustainability: economic, social, and environmental. The classification of small towns into three classes of these fields of sustainability was done based on average values of the indicators. Parallel with the selection of the most relevant indicators (together 12, four for each field) of sustainable development of small cities it was necessary to elaborate their typology as well. We anticipate that settlements with 5000 to 15,000 inhabitants can be grouped into four characteristic types with respect to their demographics, functions, genesis, morphology and so on: industrial small towns, employment centers in rural regions, satellite and tertiary small townsMala mesta imajo v primerjavi z velikimi v želenem in pričakovanem obdobju trajnostnega urbanega razvoja praviloma nekatere večje priložnosti, sprejemajo pa tudi nekatera tveganja. V prispevku so predstavljena osnovna metodološka izhodišča in rezultati dvostranskega raziskovalnega projekta, katerega osnovni namen je proučiti stanje v malih mestih na Češkem in v Sloveniji glede na njihove možnosti za trajnostni razvoj. Dosežena raven njihovega trajnostnega razvoja je bila ocenjena z dostopnimi in medsebojno primerljivimi kazalniki treh osrednjih polj urbane trajnosti: ekonomske, socialne in okoljske. Razvrščanje malih mest v tri razrede za omenjena polja trajnosti je bilo izvedeno na osnovi povprečnih vrednosti niza kazalnikov. Vzporedno z izbiro najbolj relevantnih kazalnikov (skupaj jih je 12, štiri za vsako polje) trajnostnega razvoja malih mest je bila narejena še njihova tipologija. Predvidevamo namreč, da se naselja s 5000 do 15.000 prebivalcev glede na demografske značilnosti, funkcijo, genezo, morfologijo itd. združujejo v štiri značilne tipe: industrijska mala mesta, zaposlitveni centri v ruralnem območju, satelitska in terciarna mala mestaTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUrad RS za makroekonomske analize in razvoj
