Description
Summary:The period covered by this bibliographical review (1995-2000) is characterized by an important development of the theoretical researches in transport geography. This new trend is illustrated by a great diversity of materials, which can be divided into three sub-groups: network analysis, modelling techniques and spatial analysis of road transport externalities. But a significant part of papers with a strong descriptive component indicates that empirical studies still constitute a concern of the Belgian geographers, especially in connection with new research areas as the developing world and the geography of cruise shipping.
