GeoGraphos (ISSN: 2173-1276. Depósito legal: A 371-2013) es una revista digital de geografía y ciencias sociales (http://web.ua.es/revista-geographos-giecryal) editada por el Grupo Interdisciplinario de Estudios Críticos y de América Latina (GIECRYAL) de la Universidad de Alicante (Alicante, España) que sólo se difunde a través de Internet y cuyo objetivo principal es estimular la investigación geográfica y social, el debate y la contraposición de ideas entre los estudiantes de la Universidad de Alicante y los de otros centros de educación superior de España, Europa y América Latina. De ahí que los contenidos de esta publicación estén dirigidos a los colectivos españoles, latinoamericanos y europeos de geógrafos y científicos sociales. Esta revista internacional tiene periodicidad anual y publicará artículos redactados por estudiantes de geografía y ciencias sociales en castellano, catalán, gallego y portugués, apostando sin reservas, toda vez que la geografía es una ciencia social y humana, por la interdisciplinariedad, la crítica y la transversalidad del conocimiento con idénticos criterios a los que animaron la creación y composición del GIECRYAL.
