Abstract

Conceptualization and explanation of concepts in scientific studies is of outstanding importance because the fruitfulness of concepts and their detailed explanation can improve the position of the field of study among other sciences and highlight the approaches and analysis. In the field of geography studies, in accordance with the existing macro perspective, the systematic connection between topics, etc., new and different conceptualizations can provide the basis for its flourishing and dynamism. Based on this, in the present article, which was done with the descriptive-analytical method and based on library findings, the goal is to conceptualize the geographical elite and its role in geographical studies. The results of the present research show that a precise conceptualization of the geographical elite has not been done so far, and its role and place in geographical studies have not been well explained. Based on this, the geographical elite can be conceptualized in the form of two groups. The first group of prominent geographical thinkers and experts and the second group of astronauts with a realistic understanding of the geographical space. As a rule, if the basis of these two elite geographical groups is considered in geography studies, a more accurate and systematic understanding of the geographical space will be obtained and realistic plans will be planned to organize the geographical space. Based on this, it seems that recognition and special attention to the geographical elite and their role in the geographical spaces in connection with the managers ruling the space can accelerate the process of organizing and improving the geographical space to a great extent.
