Subscribe to Human Geography: A New Radical Journal
Meant to be Read from Cover to Cover
We have started a new journal in Human Geography broadly conceived to cover
topics ranging from geopolitics, through cultural and economic issues, to
political ecology. The first issue came out in May, 2008, the second in
November, 2008, and the third in March 2009. We envisage a well written,
critical, intellectual journal, not full of empirical detail, and not encumbered
by too many citations, a journal that can be read in its entirety. The journal
is peer reviewed - but we intend to give positive, helpful reviews of papers,
and not savage them or decline to publish based on minor points made by
reviewers who hide behind anonymity. We carry a mix of longer papers up to 7500
words and shorter pieces of up to 3000 words, with timely opinion pieces and
book review essays interspersed within the body of the main text of the journal.
The journal comes out in print. See also our web site www.hugeog.com
When we start making a surplus, we give it out in research grants to the kind of
people who never get funded by the conventional agencies!
