Australian Geographer

Scope

Australian Geographer publishes high-quality, peer-reviewed research that aims to shift academic and public debate on matters of societal and environmental consequence. Papers from across the breadth of Geography and cognate disciplines that promote distinctive insights and perspectives from the Asia-Pacific region are welcome. Australian Geographer reflects and celebrates Geography’s diversity of philosophical and methodological approaches, encompassing the physical and social sciences and humanities. With efficient and rigorous peer-review, and typically rapid path to publication, articles in Australian Geographer report on timely empirical research, advance new concepts, intervene in current debates, and/or encourage readers to rethink social, environmental, economic and political issues through analysis of new evidence. The journal emphasizes accessible, high-quality writing that communicates clearly to a wide-ranging readership across academic, educational, policy and general interest communities. Australian Geographer publishes full research articles, book reviews and forums, special issues, research notes and our distinctive “Thinking Space” commentaries in which geographers provide informed opinion on current public debates.
