Aims & Scope

Die Geographische Zeitschrift gehört seit ihrem Beginn im Jahr 1895 zu den führenden deutschsprachigen Zeitschriften ihres Faches. Heute widmet sich die Zeitschrift in meist deutschsprachigen aber auch englischen Beiträgen den Gegenwartsfragen der Anthropogeographie. Als international renommiertes Fachmedium ist sie einem hohen theoretischen und methodischen Anspruch verpflichtet. Die Qualität und Aktualität der Beiträge wird durch internationale Sachverständige — als "refereed journal" — garantiert. Gerade indem sie die traditionellen Grenzen ihres Faches überschreitet, trägt die Geographische Zeitschrift maßgeblich zur Weiterentwicklung und Fortschritt der Anthropogeographie bei.
