With collaboratively written chapters exploring Italy, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada, this volume examines the impacts of deindustrialization, demonstrating that it is an uneven geographical, spatial, and temporal process. This study transcends the local and regional investigations that often predominate deindustrialization studies, and the wider transnational and cross-national perspective of this work highlights the ways that geography matters in the deindustrialization process. This collection pursues diverse avenues of investigation into deindustrialization in hopes to understand the deep roots of recent, universal, and political phenomena.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Politics of Industrial Closure\u003c\/em\u003e considers deindustrialization as yet another form of dispossession within global capitalism and seeks to break out of a unitary understanding of the problem of deindustrialization.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStefan Berger is a professor of social history and director of the Institute for Social Movements at Ruhr-Universität Bochum in Germany. \u003cb\u003eSteven High\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of History at Concordia University and co-founder of the Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 432\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.19 x 8.83 x 5.92 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 24, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48288649380089,"sku":"9781049800554","price":80.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/EPcoX1bvHi9781049800554.webp?v=1776247644","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-politics-of-industrial-closure-transnational-and-comparative-histories-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
