Description:

Progress in Human Geography is the peer-review journal of choice for those wanting to know about the state of the art in all areas of research in the field of human geography – philosophical, theoretical, thematic, methodological or empirical. Concerned primarily with critical reviews of current research, PiHG enables a space for debate about questions, concepts and findings of formative influence in human geography.It is published six times per year in paper format and – in Online First – continuously in electronic format. The six editors of PiHG are supported by an international Editorial Advisory Board.The journal is largely comprised of blind-reviewed review articles, along with so-called Progress Reports. The highly influential and much-cited Progress Reports are commissioned by the editors to provide critical, annual summaries of work in the sub-disciplines of human geography. Regular articles are around 8K long, progress reports around 4K.Click herefor an example of a Progress ReportFrom time to time PiHG publishes book review symposia that allow extended and multiply authored critiques of significant works with a response from the author.
