The Scope and Methods of Geography by Sir Halford John Mackinder

The Scope and Methods of Geography by Sir Halford John Mackinder

Is geography one, or is it several subjects? More precisely, are physical and political geography two stages of one investigation, or are they separate subjects to be studied by different methods, the one an appendix of geology, the other of history? --Halford Mackinder in The Scope and Methods of Geography, 1887

The Scope and Methods of Geography was published by Halford Mackinder in 1887 in the New Monthly Series of the Royal Geographical Society. It was a manifesto for the New Geography, in which he viewed physical geography and human geography as a single discipline. This publication represented the beginning of an illustrious career as an English geographer and academic.
