Looking at what Geographers do – Empirische Beiträge zur Wissenschaftsbeobachtung in der Geographie
- The research interest of this doctoral thesis addresses the academic practice of German-speaking geography. It is thus both a "meta-geographical" thesis in the sense of disciplinary science research and a social-geographical thesis that examines how scientists interact with each other as social actors in the academic field. In this dissertation, a total of five scientific articles are presented. All contributions examine German-language geography from a scientometric perspective. The unifying aspect of this work is not the one major research question, but the research object and the methodological perspective taken. The work is divided into two parts: Based on bibliometric data research and network analysis, the first part is dealing with the question of the unity of geography (papers 1-3) and paradigm evolution exemplified by the new cultural geography (paper 4). The second part deals with gender inequalities in geography. Here, one scientific article (paper 5) is presented and put into context. The focus is on gender differences inThe research interest of this doctoral thesis addresses the academic practice of German-speaking geography.
