地球表面的70%是海洋。然而,直到最近,社会和文化地理学家还没有对我们生活的世界的这一方面给予太多关注,最引人注目的贡献来自历史视角。这项研究审查了这一研究领域的特点,然后概述了社会和文化地理学家未能对海洋和船舶进行一致和全面检查的可能原因,这些地理学家的关注点更当代。海洋通常被理解为低于陆地,处于陆地的边缘,在现代意识中是看不见的,但它仍然是一个至关重要的空间,是我们目前所知的世界运转所不可或缺的。这项研究通过对海洋世界的现代审查正在发展的方式,在概述未来的承诺,正在浮出水面,更现代的社会和文化的海洋地理。该研究概述了社会和文化地理学与海洋之间的关系,并以结论的方式争取更多的当代工作,考虑到海洋空间,以扩大和加深对水域世界的地理理解。
Seventy per cent of the Earth’s surface is sea. Yet, until recently social and cultural geographers have failed to pay much attention to this aspect of the world in which we live, with the most notable contributions deriving from historical perspectives. This study examines the work characterising this area of research before outlining possible reasons for the failure of consistent and comprehensive examination of the seas and ships for social and cultural geographers who take a more contemporary focus. The sea has been typically understood as inferior to and marginal from the land and invisible in modern consciousness, yet it is nonetheless a vital space and one that is integral to the workings of the world as we currently know it. This study travels through the ways in which modern-day examinations of the maritime world are developing before outlining future promises that are surfacing for more contemporary social and cultural geographies of the sea. The study offers an overview of the relationship between social and cultural geography and the sea, contending by way of a conclusion for a greater volume of contemporary work considering maritime spaces to expand and deepen geographic understandings of the watery world.
