Geographical Research is the internationally-refereed publication of the Institute of Australian Geographers, the peak body representing academic and professional geographers in Australia. The primary objective of Geographical Research is to advance innovative and high-quality work that demonstrates the strengths and diversity of all parts of discipline, and in this endeavour it also supports scholarship from the Institute’s several Study Groups. The Journal includes (but is not restricted to) academic papers, commentaries, book panels and book reviews. It is published in February, May, August and November each year by John Wiley & Sons Australia, Ltd. Geographical Research also invites select contributions to ‘Antipodean Perspectives’ by authors recognised as leaders in their subfields. These authors will be able to provide to the Journal high-level reviews of ‘global’ developments in that subfield, and to consider how geographical research and scholarship have added to and extended international knowledge conducted in or about the region (embracing Australia, New Zealand and the Asia-Pacific). Short papers from practising (professional) geographers, and in geographical education, are also welcome. More information about the work of the Journal may be obtained from the Editor-in-Chief.
