The Soviet geographical literature of the last decade has adopted four principal, alternative premises about the place of social geography within the overall system of geography. These are that social geography: (1) does not exist as a separate branch of the subject; (2) belongs to a lower hierarchical order of geography, usually as a sub-division of population geography; (3) belongs to a medium level within the hierarchy of geography, broadly equivalent in status to economic geography; or (4) belongs to the highest hierarchical level of the subject, being synonymous with the geography of human society (sodetal geography). The author stresses the difference between the wider definition of social geography, which takes it to be the geography of society, studying the arrangement of sodetal objects in their geographical interrelations, and the narrow view, which defines ‘social’ as sociological. In this case, social geography is synonymous with sociological geography; it studies sociological objects in their geographical setting. The paper also discusses the process of the sociologization of geography. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to explore the development of the GIS revolution within the field of geography in the 1980s and
1990s, taking into consideration the influence of external and internal factors on disciplinary change. Geography is rapidly
changing by the impact of external factors on geographical research and also as a consequence of economic recession and cutbacks
in higher education. Most geography departments in universities have tried to approach this impact by promoting or shifting
to human geography as an applied science, and by offering relevant skills through GIS as an approach to contemporary problems.
It is concluded that quantitative geography is essential for the further expansion of GIS within geography and also for the
survival of geography.

Japanese geography has been greatly influenced by American academia since the Second World War. The first wave was the quantitative revolution, which occurred at the end of the 1950s. Sophisticated analytical techniques and fine spatial models were introduced to Japanese geography and used in empirical studies, especially in the field of urban/transportation geography in the 1970s. The second wave was the new geography in the 1980s, including behavioral, radical and humanistic approaches. The third wave was the GIS revolution in the 1990s, which has been promoting a problem-solving approach focusing on policy matters. In this paper, I discuss how American geography has impacted on the development of Japanese human geography during this half century. 相似文献

Transportation has been a bone of public contention for decades, the discussion ranging from traffic-calming measures in individual streets to the continual growth of global transport movements. In the last 20 years transport topics have also received increased attention within the discipline of geography, be it academic, professional or in schools, but the topics addressed by today's transport geography have almost nothing in common with the roots of the field. This means that transport geography is a handed-down, hyphenated sub-branch of geography in name only. In fact, the name refers to a field of geography that is experiencing not only all the birthing pains and uncertainties of a discipline in the process of defining a new direction for itself, but also the sense of excitement and thrill of the new. This paper sets out to show both the role transport geography plays as part of human geography with its concepts and paradigms, and also the role it plays within the political debate on transport. An appeal is made to geographers to become more involved in this branch of our science. 相似文献

新经济地理学与传统经济地理学之比较研究 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
自20世纪90年代以来，藤田、克鲁格曼、维纳布斯等以迪克西特和斯蒂格利茨垄断竞争模型为基础，用不完全竞争、报酬递增和市场外部性等理念构建新的经济地理模型，掀起了一场“新经济地理学”革命。新经济地理学在理论基础、研究特点和方法等方面与传统经济地理学表现出明显不同，其理论创新受到经济学界和地理学界的普遍关注。但是，也有一些学者对它提出了同样引人注目的抨击。通过对新经济地理学与传统经济地理学进行比较，对一些重大理论假设、研究方法与特点进行简要分析，有助于廓清对新经济地理学与传统经济地理学之异同的正确认识，以期推动新经济地理学的理论研究与应用以及新经济地理学与传统经济地理学领域的学术交流。 相似文献

Geography has had only limited interchange with the American philosophical tradition of pragmatism. This paper claims that a closer engagement with pragmatism has much to offer to geography, not least in providing an arena within which very different types of geographical inquiry - qualitative and quantitative, human and physical - may find some common ground for useful conversation and debate. However, this will only be fully achieved if geography embarks on a threefold engagement with pragmatism: (1) studies that develop and deploy specific pragmatist ideas and concepts within particular geographical research; (2) studies that attempt to relate geographical research to the wider arena of the pragmatic tradition; (3) historical examination of early links between pragmatism, social science and geography. The history and contemporary revival of pragmatism is described, together with its impacts on social theory and social science. The existing literature on geographical engagement with pragmatism is then examined, and it is argued that there is a much broader relevance within both human and physical geography, not linked to particular styles of research. The question of the history of earlier influences of pragmatism on American geography is then raised, and some linkages charted. The philosopher Hilary Putnam has used the term ‘pragmatist enlightenment’ to describe what he sees as the promise of pragmatism, and the paper concludes by suggesting that this also promises an exciting and fruitful engagement for geography. 相似文献

In our editorial introduction to this themed issue on labour geography, we outline some important on-going debates in the relatively young field of labour geography and suggest future directions for research. First, there is the key question of labour as an active agent in the production of economic landscapes. The agency of labour will likely remain a defining feature of labour geography, but perhaps it is not as important to construct theoretical analytical boundaries as it is to define labour geography as a political project. Second, debates continue surrounding the production of scale and the multiscalarity of organized labour. Third, labour geographers have yet to engage in any sustained fashion with unpacking the complex identities of workers and the way in which those identities simultaneously are shaped by and shape the economic and cultural landscape. Fourth, there is some debate on the costs and benefits of a ‘normative’ labour geography which emphasizes what workers and their organizations ‘could’ or even ‘should’ do. Lastly, we challenge the assumption that labour geographers have not yet asserted themselves as activists in their own right. We conclude the editorial by introducing the articles included in the issue. While these articles may not address every gap in the literature, they do contribute in significant ways to move the labour geography project forward. 相似文献

The author outlines the relationships between geography and the study of environmental problems. After WW II when these problems were growing in number and complexity, many geographers turned to the quantitative study of spatial relations and processes, neglecting the ecological aspects of human life on earth. However, recently human and physical geography are turning again to an ecological point of view. In the study of environmental problems, a synthesis of the spatial and the ecological traditions in geography is possible. The spatial aspects of environmental problems and environmental management in a systems-theory framework are the central points in the contribution of geography to an interdisciplinary environmental science. 相似文献

Within universities there has developed a clear theoretical convergence between Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and
geography (Antenuccl, 1991). Studies have revealed that one of the qualified departments to teach GIS within universities
is the geography department. This study focuses on: the importance of establishing GIS as a major curriculum element within
universities. In geography departments, economic geography students require a strong statistical/mathematical background to
allow them to work with major databases. They should know how to design a specific database for economic activities, such
as agriculture and manufacturing, and tertiary industry and how to relate this database to a map, so that changes can be monitored
more accurately. In any aspect of geography spatial location is a key factor and GIS allows spatial patterns to be interpreted
with great facility. Therefore it is important that students have a good knowledge not only of computers and related software
on economic geography, but also on GIS systems (Burrough, 1993). The work of geography students from the United Arab Emirates
(UAE) and other Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) geography departments is examined to evaluate the importance of training in
GIS technology. This paper evaluates the effects of implementing GIS as a tool in teaching economic geography. At present
there are 15 geography departments in the GCC which offer economic geography. Of those 15 departments, only 3 provide GIS
courses within their curriculum, and 4 have basic equipment, although 6 additional departments are to introduce GIS in the
near future.

Reforms are not new to school geography in the Soviet Union, having occurred in the 1930s, 1960s, and two times during the
1980s. During each reform there were two dominant concerns. First, there was the relationship of school geography to the social
order and second, the relationship between school geography and the scientific discipline of geography as it was developing.
The most recent reform, that of the late 1980s, promises to have far reaching implications for the teaching of geography.
This is partly the result of perestroika, but also the recognition that geography is a significant field of scientific study
in developing the student's fundamental knowledge of the world and related global issues. The combination of scientific approaches
with the examination of social, environmental and other problem issues is recognized as a major objective of geography in
the pre-collegiate education of Soviet students. 相似文献

This article presents an evaluation of the current status of economic geography in general and German economic geography in particular with respect to research topics. A comparison with Anglo-American economic geography, more specifically, its actual research fields are also undertaken on the basis of a bibliometrical analysis of German and international journals dedicated to economic geography. On the basis of this analysis suggested actions are formulated, which could contribute to improved performance of research in German economic geography. 相似文献

Although there are several departments and subdepartments of geography in Saudi universities and other institutions, these departments have so far failed to produce professionals who are capable of filling the posts offered by the employers in both the public and private sectors. This paper suggests that since the demand for geography graduates with general training is rather low at presents, it is time for geography departments to turn to professionalism in the field so that geography graduates can compete favourably for the available posts. This calls for a new look into the geography curriculum, particularly at university level with a view of improving the skills and aptitude of geographers to assume a more positive role in the process of development. The paper also calls for the regional specialisation of geography departments in Saudi Arabia as a step forward towards solving the existing job problem for geography graduates, as well aas underlining the involvement and commitment of geographers to issues of development at the local, regional and national scales. 相似文献

There is little doubt that a phenomenological approach in the Husserlian mould is valuable in curbing the excessive positivism and naivety that have characterised much of the social geography undertaken in Britain during the past twenty years. However, the operational value of phenomenology in social geography is more controversial. Ley's formulation of a phenomenologically based social geography focussing on the concept of place suffers from certain methodological and theoretical problems that stem, in part, from his adoption of Schutz's conceptualisation of the social world. A phenomenologically inspired but modified approach, involving the concepts of structuration and power and drawing heavily on the work of Giddens, is suggested as superior. This conceptualisation, which connects human action with structural explanation, permits a valuable reformulation of the geography of mental illness and may have similarly worthwhile applications in other areas of interest to social geographers. 相似文献
