geographical patterns, social problem, theory, methodology, explainingAbstract
The aim of the research is to present and explain the definitional and thematic scope of social problems and geographical patterns and to indicate the adequacy of human concepts belonging to specific explanatory patterns. The thematic scope of issues considered by geographers and included in social problems is subject to modification, while research interest groups are subject to significant changes too. Human concepts, regardless of the time of formulation, are subject to academic analysis in particular geographical patterns. Over time, individual patterns are distinguished by their co-occurrence. The variety of explanatory patterns taken into account in the study of social problems poses many difficulties related to the multitude and variety of definitions used, as well as the attributes associated with them. Empirical work never has all the features of a given pattern. Theoretical foundations can be adapted to various specific cases carried out through empirical research, and can also serve social and economic policy, including resolving contemporary demographic challenges.
