V prispevku smo preučili, kakšna delitev na pokrajine bi bila z vidika Notranjske najbolj primerna. Analizirali smo centralnost naselij, dnevno mobilnost delovne sile in sektorske členitve, s spletnim anketiranjem pa smo preverili, kje anketiranci koristijo storitve regionalnega pomena ter kaj menijo o predlaganih regionalizacijah. Rezultati nakazujejo na dve skupini občin – občine vzhodno od nekdanje rapalske meje, ki gravitirajo proti Ljubljani, ter občine zahodno od nekdanje rapalske meje, ki gravitirajo proti Postojni in Kopru. Medtem ko anketiranci iz slednjih prednost dajejo povezovanju z obalno-kraškimi občinami, nasprotujejo pa povezovanju z osrednjeslovenskimi občinami, anketiranci iz občin vzhodno od nekdanje rapalske meje v ospredje postavljajo povezovanje notranjskih občin in oblikovanje samostojne Notranjske pokrajine. Izhajajoč iz strokovnih meril in deljenega mnenja anketirancev oblikovanje Notranjske kot samostojne pokrajine ni smiselno. // Inner Carniola in the regionalization of Slovenia This article investigates which regionalization would be the most suitable with regard to the region of Inner Carniola. It analyzes the area’s central settlements, workforce commuting, and sectoral divisions, as well as information from an online survey determining where respondents use services of regional importance and what their attitudes are about proposed regionalizations. The results indicate two groups of municipalities: municipalities east of the former Rapallo border that are oriented toward Ljubljana, and municipalities west of the former Rapallo border that are oriented toward Postojna and Koper. Respondents from the latter give priority to connections with the coastal municipalities, but they are opposed to strengthening connections with municipalities in central Slovenia, whereas respondents from the municipalities east of the former Rapallo border prioritize connections with other municipalities in Inner Carniola and the creation of Inner Carniola as a separate region. Based on professional criteria and the divided opinion of the respondents, the designation of Inner Carniola as a separate region does not make sense.
