摘要

摘要:建立以学科为基础的正式协会对于学科的发展和促进学科工作者的活动至关重要。本地理学说明探讨了美国地理学协会的发展和作用。它首先介绍了起源于 1851 年至 1915 年间的四个主要地理学会，以及它们是如何进行专业化拓展和履行职能的。随后研究了美国地理学家协会地区分会的作用，这些分会为美国地理学家协会会员创建了更多地方化的地理协会。首先考虑了美国地理学家协会九个地区分部的属性，然后根据一项广泛的调查，讨论了会员对这些地区的看法。在比较美国地理学会九个地区的属性和看法时，发现了美国地理学会东南分会（SEDAAG）的特殊地位。

Gauging Geography's Vitality through National and Regional Organizations

abstract:The establishment of formal disciplinary-based associations is vital to the growth of the discipline and in facilitating the activities of people who work within the discipline. This geographical note examines the development and role of geography associations in the United States. It begins by looking at the four major geography societies which originated between 1851 and 1915 and how they specialized in their outreach and functions. This is followed by examining the role of the American Association of Geographers' regional divisions, which have created more localized geography associations for AAG members. The attributes of the AAG's nine regional divisions are considered, and then members' perspectives of these regions, based on a wide-ranging survey, are discussed. The special place of the Southeastern Division of the AAG (SEDAAG) emerges in comparing attributes and perceptions of each of the nine AAG regions.
