The Geographical Journal has been the academic journal of
the Royal Geographical Society, under the terms of the Royal
Charter, since 1893. It publishes original research papers and
review articles, all of which are refereed. Editorial policy is not
influenced by the views of the sponsors. The papers range across
the entire subject of Geography, with particular reference to
public debates, policy-orientated agendas and notions of
‘relevance’. Particular emphasis is placed on:
• Publishing articles that make a major theoretical, conceptual
and/or empirical intervention to the advancement of both geography
and ideas pertaining to ‘public relevance’
• Stimulating and shaping future public and policy-orientated
agendas across human and physical geography
• Publishing a range of articles, editorial interventions and other
forms of commentaries, which investigate why problems, issues and
solutions are posed in particular ways
• Evaluating the manner in which geographical knowledge is used to
influence and underpin local, national and global policies
• Attracting articles and other contributions that communicate
‘cutting-edge’ research in an accessible manner.
The GJ also carries book reviews and longer comparative
reviews of books and other public sources that focus on the public
debates, policy-orientated agendas and critical assessments of
‘relevance’.
