About the Journal
SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
GEOgraphia is a publication of the Graduate Program in Geography at the Fluminense Federal University, with the objective of disseminating knowledge on contemporary and classical debates of interest to Geography and related fields, addressing issues concerning geographic space. The journal is published exclusively online, with free and non-commercial access.
The journal was founded alongside the Master's course of the Graduate Program in Geography at UFF, with the first issue published in June 1999. This initial issue presented an overview of the faculty's production within the newly established Master's program. The printed version was published until issue no. 19, in July 2008. Since then, it has been available exclusively in electronic format, undergoing significant changes in 2015, including a new layout and a shift from biannual to triannual issues. Since July 2020, the journal has adopted a continuous publication model.
The journal is organized around four sections – Regular Articles, Our Classics (with previously unpublished translations of classic Geography texts), and Reviews – which remain to this day. The fourth section, Recommendations: Books & Authors, was replaced in issue no. 41 (2017) by the section Fundamental Concepts in Geography.
Since July 2020, the journal has adopted a continuous publication model, adhering to editorial standards and the opinions of the editorial board or ad hoc reviewers.
For publication, articles must be original, based on empirical data and a solid theoretical-conceptual foundation. Theoretical reviews are also accepted, provided they offer a clear and original contribution to geographical thought. Manuscripts may be submitted in Portuguese, Spanish, French, and English.
FREQUENCY
Since July 2020, GEOgraphia has been a continuous-flow biannual publication. New batches of articles are published monthly, resulting in two issues per semester.
