Contribution of Ivan Gams to Slovenia's Regional Geography and Regionalization
View through CrossRef
The Slovenian geographer Ivan Gams made his greatest research contribution in the second half of the twentieth century, when regional geography was primarily characterized by a decline in its theory and exceptional development of its methodology. In recent years, the role of thematic cartography and related geographic information systems has been strengthening, and the humanist(ic) component of regional geography has been emphasized. In Slovenia, regional geography gained new impetus with the country’s independence in 1991. Gams enriched Slovenian regional geography especially through various regionalization schemes for Slovenia and secondary-school textbooks, as the leader of a long-standing regional geography research project, and as an advisor to junior researchers in regional geography.
