Study of 'geo' or 'earth' includes physical features and Life on Earth. Human geography studies relationships between humans and the environment in which they live. How is life sustained in varying climatic zones and altitudes? 2. Empirical is a method in Inductive Thinking process of research.empirical treats reality as a phenomenon. ' It HAPPENS. IT EXISTS. IT IS IN THE REALM OF BEING.' The researcher has only to see it and find it, to know that is already exists. This method is most widely used in Political Theory, all other Humanities. For details see Part 1 of Philosophy of Social Sciences in University unit of this website. 3. Practical : Mapping of physical features and interpretation of maps.

Human geography is critical to Sociology, Psychology, Economics, Anthropology, History, Political Science, Military Science, Demography, Business, trade and commerce, (30 words) Answer the following questions in not more than 150 words. a) Explain naturalization of humans. Answer. When humans living in forests as tribes, live as if they are a part of the forest, it is called naturalization of humans. They use the forest produce judiciously and do not cause damage to the forest. For the forest produce they collect they thank and pray to the spirits for that product. They have names for spirits for various trees streams. Most tribes in India provide evidence of being naturalized with Nature. Their faith in their belief about protecting the forests for their own safety is very strong. These naturalized tribes refuse to give up their beliefs to get modernized. Under naturalization of humans, Nature and humans live in harmony. Nature is a viewed as a force that is to be worshipped, respected, and conserved for the protection of humans. The use of technology is low good of humans. Such naturalization of humans has protected forests in India. (150 words) b) Write a note on the scope of human geography. Answer. The Scope of Human is the development story of humans. It ranges from Environmental Determinism to Possibilism. Its middle path is Neo-determinism. Environmental Determinism is the view of absolute necessity. Possibilism is the view of absolute 10 x 10 Learning TM Page 5
6 freedom to change Nature. It means that humans can conquer Nature by obeying it. It also means that possibilities for development on basis of technology can be created within limits that do not damage the environment. Neo determinism establishes a balance between the two extremes of very low use technology as in Environmental Determinism, and the very high free run of technology, in Possibilism. In other words it nullifies the either or dichotomy in the scope of human geography. This dichotomy states that humans can either conserve Nature or Develop. The greenhouse effect, ozone layer depletion, global warming, receding glaciers, degradation of land have resulted from the free run view. (150 words) 10 x 10 Learning TM Page 6
