Presidential Address and record of the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) AGM 2017

摘要

In his second address as President of the Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers), Nicholas Crane illustrated the role geography can play in a shared, popular narrative. He argued that we should consider devoting more attention to promoting accessible geographical narratives with their long-term emphases on people, places and environment, and less attention to historical narratives with their emphases on documented events limited to the last couple of thousand years.
