The aim of this article is to analyse population development in the district´s area in the period of 1880-1910. The demographical transition continued in Bohemia until the end of the 19th century with changing populations and reproductive behaviour. The political district of Kolín belonged among Czech areas with fairly early asserted changes. That was because of the region´s economic maturity and also the closeness to Prague, from where these new tendencies of reproductive behaviour spread. Population development was also influenced by high migration., Iva Blümelová., and Obsahuje odkazy pod čarou
In the year 1909 was established in Prague Minority Museum as a mutually-supportive institution. Its goal was to pay attention to demographic problems, expecially the distribution of Czech minorities in nationally mexed (Czech-German) regions in the borderlands, as well as collection of documents on national, cultural and social situation. One of the concrete activities of the museum was to pursue guestionnaire surveys, on the basis of which was expected to enquire the situation of Czech minorities on Czech-German territories. The article shows how the questionnaires were processed and distributed. Given the fact that the archival collection "Minority Museum 1909-1920" in the National Archives in Prague contains only a torso of filled questionnaires, it can be speculated that in the period before the World War I it was not possible to realize this project., Andrej Sulitka., and Obsahuje bibliografii
