These words of Hegel may be taken to express the basic outlook of the "possibilist” geographer of today as he seeks to understand the nature of the relationship of man to earth. Only as men, as individuals or groups have been possessed with an idealistic philosophy associated with a concept of God, the State, or just the urge to enter new lands, to "conquer" nature, do they become truly geographically efficacious. As Professor Crowe has said "effective" man is the concern of geography not the total number.
