ON «FUNDAMENTAL MODERNIZATION» OF NATIONAL GEOGRAPHY
Journal Title: Український географічний журнал - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue
Abstract
Continuing the discussion on the subject of geography (UGJ number 1 - 2016), we focus attention on the issue of improper substitution of concepts - “geographical shell“ for ”landscape shell» based on citing statements of some scientists, sometimes not quite accurate. The concern has been expressed for premature «burial» of physical geography followed by shifting preference to the physical geography’s supplemental science -»Landscape». It has been emphasized that physical geographers should express their position on those issues more actively at geographical forums and in publications.
