This thesis is dealing with environmental migration resulting from the planned use of the territory, i.e. development displacement or resettlement. The aim of this thesis is to describe this process, to promote its understanding and to analyze its causes and consequences on people and communities. Academic literature dealing with development displacement in general was used together with many case studies. The thesis discusses the resettlement process in the Czech Republic, especially the actual case of the development displacement in the village of Nové Heřminovy. The main part of this thesis is the research conducted in the Slezská Harta micro-region, where 675 persons were displaced due to the building of the dam Slezská Harta in the late 80s and early 90s. The method of interview was used to analyze concequences of development displacement on people and communities (i.e. villages, which were affected by the dam construction). Interviews were made with 17 individuals who were somehow affected by the process of development displacement, mainly by being displaced. Key words: environmental migration, development displacement, Slezská Harta
