From the first issue (1957)
An excerpt from the text of the editor of Geographical Review Volume 1 (1957), Prof. Dr. Husein Brkić:
“… The Geographical Society of Bosnia and Herzegovina was established in 1947. In its first jubilee year, after ten years of existence, the society appeared before the public with its professional magazine “Geographical Review”. The Geographical Society of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as other similar professional organizations, has defined in its rules its main task – the cultivation and advancement of geographical science. This task has two aspects. Since geography is a very important general subject in secondary and vocational schools, improving the teaching of geography is a very important aspect of developing geographical science, because, in addition to expanding geographical knowledge, it creates a basis for resolving personnel issues. …”
