Geographica Helvetica

Aims & Scope

Geographica Helvetica , the Swiss journal of geography, is fully Open Access and publishes contributions in all fields of geography as well as in neighboring disciplines. As a multilingual journal, GH accepts articles in English, German, French, and Italian. It publishes theoretical as well as empirical contributions with relevance to geography. GH offers a platform for a cosmopolitan geography that highlights relationality and difference, connections and disconnections within Europe and beyond. This agenda derives from the specificity of Swiss geography as a meeting ground for different geographical traditions and languages. To this end, the journal is particularly interested in publishing perspectives from regions often perceived as "niches", such as Southern and Eastern Europe, and insights about the entanglements between European and non-European regions. Geographica Helvetica offers different publication formats and publishes peer-reviewed and non-reviewed interventions (see manuscript types ). The Special Edition Social Geography is a forum for theme issues specifically dedicated to exploring and developing the interface between social geographic research and social theory. The format of submissions may vary from theme issues with standard articles to coherent sets of shorter interventions. In all cases, a strong emphasis on fundamental issues in socio-spatial theory, social philosophy and philosophy of science must be clearly evident.
