Human Geography

The Human Geography working group at Heidelberg University is a place of exchange for both students and researchers. We understand Human Geography as a call to think through questions of space and power across multiple scales. Social practices and ingrained logics of past, present and future geography-making are our focus. In our teaching, we combine conceptual and topical perspectives from various fields of research. In the broad spectrum of Human Geography, we are especially committed to working with concepts from Political and Critical Geography, Critical Geopolitics, New Cultural Geographies, and spatial theory.
