Weavers of Influence: The Structure of Contemporary Geographic Research

SCI ve SSCI Bağlamında Türkiye’nin Coğrafya biliminde uluslararası yayın performansının karşılaştırmalı analizi 1945-2005

“…ele alan tüm coğrafyacılar, coğrafya biliminin ikili (düalist) yapısı nedeniyle, analizlerini fiziki ve beşeri coğrafya için ayrı ayrı yapma yolunu seçmektedirler (Bkz. Bodman, 1991;Gregory vd., 2002;Gutierrez ve Lopez-Nivea, 2001;Ferguson, 2003;Whitehand, 1985;Turner, 1988;Wrigley ve Matthews, 1986).
