Abstract

The article presents comments on Anglo-American domination in human geography and its potential impact on other traditions. People perceive the Anglo-American domination to be destroying some of its richness and diversity. Evidence about the existence of this supposed Anglo-American ascendancy over human geography is based on simple indicators. One indicator is the origin of prize winners and the second is the publication and citation patterns of some of the top journals in human geography.
