원래 촌락과 도시를 포함하는 취락지리학이 인문지리학에서 분화하여 체계화한 것은 19세기 말에서 20세기 초에 걸쳐서이고, 이어서 도시지리학의 발전에 따라서 자연히 취락지리학은 촌락만을 중요대상으로 삼게 되었다. 그래서 해방 30년간에 있어서 우리나라 학계에 있어서도 전반에서는 촌락.도시를 포함하는, 취락지리학 후반 즉 1960년대이후 도시발전기를 맞이하여 도시연구가 활발해짐에 따라서 도시지리학이 분화발달하게 되어, 각 대학의 지리학과에서도 도시지리학강좌가 취락지리학에서 분리신설하게 되었다.

The development of Korean urban geography can be divided into several stages including initial stage, transition stage, and maturation stage. If this trend persists, it can be expected that it would turn into the matured stage. This paper intended to recall the research trends from 1960 to 2012, focusing on 686 papers and 177 books published during the last 62 years, and investigated by research areas, study regions, methodologies, and journals in relation to urban geography. Although increasing number of urban geographers has made mutual relationship more complex and diverse, no signs of school formation have yet been seen in Korean urban geography. Large portions of papers have concerned about Seoul Metropolitan Region for their study regions. There have been diversified trends of oversea studies away from the US cities to other cities in various countries. Also, quantitative studies have been increasing their weight since the 2000s. Moreover, articles on the Journal of the Korean Urban Geographical Society have been far surpassed in its number.

In celebrating a half century history of the Korean Geographical Society, this paper is concerned about research trends of the urban geography in Korea by reviewing of 449 papers and 15 books mainly in an urban geography field. The findings are summarized as follows: (1) The development of the urban geography in Korea has several stages; \circled1 The launching stage just after 1945; \circled2 the premature stage in the 1960s; \circled3 the taking-off stage in the 1970s; \circled4 the maturing stage in the 1980s; and \circled5 culminating stage in the as of 1990s. (2) The earlier studies had a few limited research themes without major debating issues. In the 1970s, various research themes had been introduced in the urban geography. More diverse themes have been studied in urban geography after the 1980s. The major themes in the urban geography included urbanization, urban structure, urban system, urban economic structure and so on. (3) The most frequent research area for the Korean urban geographers has been the Seoul metropolitan area followed by Kyongsang-Province region. Outside Korea, the most frequent research areas are the American cities followed by the cities of Japan, Canada, and France. (4) The urban geography in Korea has played a major role in introducing the quantitative methods and techniques into geography. For example over 30.5% out of papers in urban geography has taken the quantitative techniques in the past 35 years during the 1960-1994 period. The papers inside urban geography have counted more than 60 percent from research papers in major university journals and took 34.6 percent from the papers of the Journal of Korean Geographical Society.

도시지리학은 도시사회학으로, 또한 공간경제학의 측면에서 계통화되어가고 있음에도 불구하고, 우리나라에서는 2, 3의 지리학자에 의하여 도시분류를 시도하는 단계에 있고, 일부 사회학자에 의하여 토지이용, 지역배치 등이 개척되었으나 도시구조에의 approach는 미흡한 면이 많다. 근래 지역개발이 고창되고 도시화에 따르는 제문제를 해결하려는 노력의 일환으로 여러 분야에서 많은 실적이 발표되어가고 있다. 본고은 이와 같은 시점에서 도시문제해결의 제1수단이 되는 도시역, 도심, 폭도심의 형성, 구심과 난심등에 걸쳐 서울의 예를 들어 조사분석을 시도하였다.

Social and population geography in Korea has been developed somewhat later than other special subjects of geography. But in recent years, it has attracted much interests of geographers, and accumulated a considerably large amount of research products. Seen in this context, it is resonable to expect that social and population geography will not only lead the development of geography in the future, but also contribute to the resolution of socio-spatial problems in Korea. From this point of view, we shall retrospect in this paper the progress of social and population geography in Korea since the 1950s, and look out its future prospect and further research tasks. In the first place, we discuss general concepts and major themes of social and population geography, and overview its development process, and than review in more details some important research products which would be categorized into five main subjects, that is, research methodology, urbanization and urban population phenomena, population movement and changing rural life, residential differentiation and urban redevelopment, and urban social life and regional social well-being. Finally, we consider briefly the future prospect and further tasks of social and population geography in Korea.
