ABSTRACT As part of a special edition of the South African Geographical Journal on the centenary of geography at the University of Stellenbosch, this paper briefly documents the evolution of human geography since 1920 in the department. The paper is structured in three sections. First, a brief account is given of the contribution by an era of Piet Serton, founding professor of the department. Second and third, accounts of the urban and tourism geography scholarship, respectively, are provided. Human geographic academic study was characterized by apolitical and positivistic approaches for most of the 100 years. The absence of departmental research into apartheid’s injustices and the immediate post-apartheid era’s policies, outcomes and shortcomings in a period of transition is a reflection of the institutional psyche, politics and staff of the day. Research output has increased dramatically since 2010, but now bears evidence of vigorous attempts to be relevant to the broader society in the subdisciplines of urban and tourism geography.

斯泰伦博斯大学百年人文地理学：对城市和旅游地理学的思考

摘要 作为斯泰伦博斯大学地理学百年纪念南非地理杂志特刊的一部分，本文简要记录了自 1920 年以来该系人文地理学的演变。论文分为三个部分。首先，简要介绍了该系创始教授皮特·塞顿 (Piet Serton) 时代的贡献。第二和第三，分别提供了城市和旅游地理学奖学金的说明。在过去 100 年的大部分时间里，人文地理学术研究的特点是非政治性和实证主义的方法。缺乏对种族隔离的不公正和种族隔离后立即的过渡时期的政策、结果和缺点的部门研究的缺乏反映了当时的制度心理、政治和工作人员。
