Although it is hardly possible to speak about a specific “postsocialist” geography, it still has some common features inherited from the socialist past, particularly in the institutional structure. Its current development is characterized by internationalization and Europeanization. Some common themes and shifts in focus can be distinguished. In postsocialist countries Russian geography has a place apart because of the size of the country and a relatively large number of geographical institutions, the duration of the socialist period, and specific academic legacy.
