Call for papers – Journal of Alpine Research

11.06.2014

The Journal of Alpine Research/Revue de Géographie Alpine has issued a call for papers on “Mountains as global suppliers: New forms of disparities between mountains and the metropolitan nodes” to broaden the understanding of mountain resources (crops, raw materials as well as leisure and residence) as an emerging issue in the mountain regions.

This issue aims to solicit empirical as well as theoretical studies focused on the role of mountainous regions as productive as well as consumptive areas for external markets and to analyze observable trends of growing disparities between mountainous peripheries and metropolitan centres.

Deadline for sending abstracts is 31 July 2014.
