The paper deals with the “top-down” approach because its existence should define limits for the “bottom-up” approach. The paper is focused on the exis tence and operation of the system of hierarchical planning of landscape in tw o post-communist countries — the Czech and Slovak Republic. A significant o utput of our study is how the individual documents deal with landscape and methodology, based on which it is possible to compare given documents and their quality.
