Revista de Geografia Norte Grande

《北地格拉夫尼亚》是智利天主教教皇大学地理研究所的一份三年出版的刊物(5月、9月和12月)。自1974年出版以来，它收集了经验主义和理论调查，这些调查显示了地理调查和科学等不同领域的进展，涉及智利的案例，也涉及拉丁美洲的其他区域和国家。该出版物的名称起源于70年代，当时地理研究所北格兰德讲习班的一组专家成员决定向科学界其他成员介绍他们的调查和结论，坚持认为对这一领土(“大北方”或“北格兰德”)进行综合和跨学科区域调查的重要性。在随后的几年里，全球领土的复杂性日益增加，因此国家领土也日益复杂，因此需要向超越智利领土界限的其他空间开放。1980年由《北格兰德》创刊第7期，成为《地理杂志》，表达了对跨越我国的各种地理问题进行报道的愿望。在21世纪初，科学与国家的重大融合产生了一种快速而紧迫的需要，即出版物必须统一关于超越政治边界的进程的知识。在这种情况下，《北格兰德地理杂志》采用了综合和跨学科的观点，虽然以智利为中心，但考虑到拉丁美洲的现实，地理进程日益全球化。

The Revista de Geografia Norte Grande is a tri–annual publication (May, September and December) of the Geography Institute of the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile. Published since 1974, it gathers empiric and theoretical investigations, which show the advances in diverse areas of geographical investigation and sciences alike, referred to Chilean cases and also to other regions and countries of Latin America.The title of this publication originates itself when in the seventies, a group of specialists members of Norte Grande Workshop of the Geography Institute, decide to introduce their investigations and conclusions to the rest of the scientific community, persisting on the importance of integrated and interdisciplinary regional investigations of this territory (the "Big North" or "Norte Grande").In the following years, the increasing complexity of global territory and therefore the national one as well, demanded the opening towards other spaces that exceed the limits of the particular Chilean territory. This is how from "Norte Grande" it became "Geography Journal" on the 7th number in 1980, thus expressing the wish to cover diverse geographical problems that cross transversally our country.During the beginning of the 21st century, the major integration of sciences and countries has generated the fast and urgent need that publications unify knowledge on processes that surpass political frontiers. In this scenario, the Norte Grande Geography Journal has adopted an integrated and interdisciplinary vision, although centered in Chile, of geographical processes that are increasingly global, referred to the Latin American reality.
