You can access here SAGE articles from the journal Progress in Human Geography. As noted in Chapter 3, articles in this journal review the ‘state-of-the-art’ of the discipline. In other words they consider what geographers have been most recently studying. Crucially, papers in the journal often indicate where and how geographical study can progress in the future. ‘Progress Reports’ – which are short, incisive reviews of key geographical concerns – can provide excellent inspiration for projects. They often highlight new lines of enquiry or fresh questions geographers might ask in a given area of the discipline. Below you’ll find a small sample of topic ideas, but follow the link to the Progress in Human Geography website (available on the ‘External Links’ page) to browse lots more reports.
