Studies of the Industrial Geography Commission of the Polish Geographical Society

The journal has been published since 2000 by the Department of Entrepreneurship and Spatial Management at the Institute of Geography of Pedagogical University in Kraków (since 2023 by the Pedagogical University in Kraków) and the Industrial Geography Commission of the Polish Geographical Society. This publication is a continuation of the publication series produced by these two institutions since 1987. The work of the two institutions has also been aided by the Center for Teaching Methods.

The journal is focused on problems associated with industrial geography, especially related to issues of structural changes in industry during the transition from an industrial economy to a post-industrial and knowledge-based economy. It is designed to serve as a forum for researchers at domestic and foreign institutions studying spatial changes and functional changes in industrial and service sectors experiencing globalization and the associated process of European integration. The journal accepts papers on the behaviors of various enterprises and the effectiveness of their functioning as well as papers on models designed to assess mechanisms of industrial growth and the evolution of contemporary near-industrial areas. The use of such mechanisms in applied papers designed to create growth strategies of spatial systems is also of interest. 

The journal is registered in the Polish Register of newspapers and journals and indexed in Polish and international databases, including Web of Science Core Collection - Emerging Source Citation Index of Clarivate Analytics (formerly Thomson Reuters).

Since 2022, the journal has a Journal Impact Factor (JIF) of 0.3.
