| book description |

This book takes a global approach to examining the concept of deindustrialization, incorporating perspectives from both the Global North and the Global South. Moving away from the traditional scholarly focus on deindustrialization in the Global North, the editors and authors of this collection highlight how processes of deindustrialization have often been connected to ideas and practices of reindustrialization in various parts of the world. The book addresses structural factors, as well as the agency of different groups of actors, in highlighting divergent outcomes of apparently similar processes. The chapters shed light on economic, social, cultural, and political aspects of deindustrialization and reindustrialization. Providing a comprehensive comparison across all continents, the editors seek to demonstrate how a truly global and transnational framework can bring value to the study of deindustrialization.
