“…It is no longer controversial to assert that the ‘mainstream’ of economic‐geographical theorising, including that which defines itself as ‘international’, emerges from the experiences of Anglo‐American regions and is articulated largely in the pages of ‘major international journals’, published overwhelmingly in English in the UK and USA (see Foster et al 2007; Murphy 2008; Rodríguez‐Pose 2006; Yeung and Lin 2003). However, what is remarkable is that so much economic geography continues to presume that ‘the economy’ can and should be theorised solely from the perspective of the formal spaces of western economies.…”

Because the economy is not found as an empirical object among other worldly things, in order for it to be ‘seen’ by the human perceptual apparatus it has to undergo a process, crucial for science, of representational mapping. This is doubling, but with a difference; the map shifts the point of view so that viewers can see the whole as if from the outside, in a way that allows them, from a specific position inside, to find their bearings. (Buck‐Morss 1995, 440)

“…Such significant source‐related factors have proven influential on citations. For instance, Foster, Muellerleile, Olds, and Peck () discovered that the ‘citation geography’ is dominated by English‐speaking countries, such as the UK, the US, and Canada. As the U.S. is the academic centre in the field of journalism and mass communication, scholars from the U.S. tend to have a much larger academic network than non‐U.S.…”

This study examines the predicting power of content and non-content article attributes and of total online usage on short-term citations of subscriptionbased journal articles. It examines articles published in Journalism and Mass Communication Quarterly (JMCQ) between 2012 and 2014. The results indicate that the total online usage (full article and abstract page views and article downloads) can be a very strong predictor for citations and can even wipe out the effects of hot topics. Mobile and social media are the media of study most cited in the articles studied. There is no identifiable gender citation gap as authors of both genders equally enjoy their share in the top 10 most cited list. The only gender-related finding is that female authors dominate gender-related topics.We conclude that journal publishers wishing to obtain a quick proxy measure of citation potential for journal articles should consult their total online usage. Furthermore, due to the prevalent bias on topics regarding citation frequency, administrators and librarians are highly advised to take topics into consideration when determining scholars' citation performance.

“…Neil Wrigley and Stephen Matthews () also examine citations, identifying “classic” books and articles in the field based. Jamie Foster and coauthors () later revealed the influence of economic geographers through citations in nongeography journals. Other studies depict how the discipline of geography itself is taught.…”

The study of geography as a discipline has often employed a top‐down approach that examines the output of the field's most prominent members. In this paper, we provide a bottom‐up approach by analyzing geography dissertations. We start by assembling a database that includes the title, author, date, and university for every geographic doctoral dissertation written in the United States over the last 120 years. The database allows us to track the rise and fall of regions of interest and specific topics. It gives a broad overview of the different schools in geography and their influence within separate historical periods. And it permits a more empirically based delineation of geographical “eras” based on the commonality of words in dissertation titles. This work is at the convergence of the quantitative and qualitative; we quantify and visualize textual data to provide a more robust history of geography. The result is a new, more comprehensive way to look at the changing discipline of geography.
