摘　　要：根据国外著名学者的观点与权威文献 ,论述社会地理学社会—文化转型的学科内涵 ,重点探讨了“新”社会地理学的理念、研究的主体内容与前沿方向。全文从社会—文化转型的角度认定“新”人文地理学是一门探索性的社会科学 ,它的社会—文化空间性为其他社会科学挖掘其学科内涵拓展了思路 ,并为它们指引空间延伸的方向与内容。第二 ,探索性地总结了“新”社会地理学主体研究内容、结构及其目标。即“社会空间结构”的综合理念及其进展。第三 ,探讨了新社会地理学与其他“新”人文地理学分支学科交叉研究的前沿方向 ,及其相关的较为成熟的学科内容及其研究框架。全文揭示学科边沿性越来越模糊的新社会地理学的基础原理是人文地理学其它分支学科分析与探讨问题的理念基础。Based on theories of famous scholars in western countries and some influential scientific periodicals, the paper discusses the connotation and research of social-cultural transforming in social geography, and especially pays far more attention to the theory and contents and research directions of the 'new' social geography. The social-cultural transforming of human geography means culture would not be the only basis of cultural geography any more, while society would not be the exclusive topic of social geography. They could not make separated chapters as one of the elements of human geography respectively.

Its nature of social-cultural space offers an approach to other social sciences to explore their connotation, and it also shows the direction and content of space expanding for them. The process of social-cultural transforming in human geography indicates not only the course of subject recombining and research content of new human geography, but also the process of how social geography and other branch subjects intercross. Secondly, the author tries to generalize the research content, structure and aim of 'new' social geography, that is too say, the comprehensive theories and recent development of 'social space structure'. For example, the theory of modernization of social-cultural patterns and the modes of multi-structure of social space includes four theories. Thirdly, the new mutual research directions of new social geography and other branch subjects of 'new' human geography, as well as the relative content and research structures, have been discussed in this article. While new social geography is exploring social space structure and its system, it must take regions as a main subject. Moreover, a city is one kind of social space structure dominated by regions. There are two main research tendencies: one is study on urban social structure and spatial process, and the other is the res
