SUMMARY:Deindustrialization and Reindustrialization in South Asia: Enclaves of Inequality\, Precarity\, and Prosperity
DESCRIPTION:Deindustrialization and Reindustrialization in South Asia: Enclaves of Inequality\, Precarity\, and Prosperity\nSouth Asia experienced one of the fastest growths in the global economic space before the COVID-19 pandemic struck in 2020. The uneven and combined development of the region’s nation-states created an offshore service market for the developed North. This seamlessly established the capital flow from the global North to South Asia.  \nIn South Asia\, it is the simultaneous deindustrialization and reindustrialization that has integrated the region with the financial and industrial world.  \nWhile the region needs the North’s technology (e.g. big data\, artificial intelligence & cloud computing) as well as capital (e.g. pension and hedge funds)\, the North leverages the cheap labour and natural resources of the region to get cheap consumer goods from and creates low-wage employment in the South Asian countries. One complements the other. This is one of the vital conditions in keeping the North’s ‘new economy’ going.  \nHowever\, the stellar growth of the service sector in South Asia has led to the closure or stagnation of its organized manufacturing industries. Optimum use of technology\, cheap labour from the countryside\, and cheap capital from the global North are the basis of service sector-led reindustrialization in South Asia.  \nThe round table will interrogate the historical conditions that made the region a service sector hub at the expense of stagnation and closure of the manufacturing sector and how it has impacted the everyday living experience of the labouring population. \n Register on Eventbrite to get the Zoom link.  \nOrganizer: Dr Indranil Chakraborty \nModerator: Dr Piyusha Chatterjee  \nSpeakers: \n\nDr. Anirban Acharya\, Professor of Practice\, Political Science\, Le Moyne College\, Syracuse\, USA \nDr. Subho Basu\, Associate Professor\, History and Classical Studies\, McGill University\, Montreal\, Canada \nAzizur Russel\, Doctoral Candidate\, History and Classical Studies\, McGill University\, Montreal\, Canada\nSartaj Khan\, Independent Researcher\, Karachi\, Pakistan\nDr. Atreyee Majumdar\, Associate Professor\, Social Sciences\, National Law School of India University\, Bengaluru\, India \nDr. Indranil Chakraborty\, Horizon Postdoctoral Fellow\, Department of History\, Concordia University\, Montreal\, Canada\nDr Dipak Gyawali\, Social Sciences Baha\, Kathmandu\, Nepal

SUMMARY:Roundtable: Energy Transitions and Deindustrialization
DESCRIPTION:Current discussions around job losses in fossil fuel industries in North America and Europe and a just transition in response to climate change have called attention once again to the close relationship between deindustrialization\, industrial transformation\, and energy transitions. This panel will examine the role of energy in deindustrialization and industrial transformation processes\, addressing both conceptual approaches and empirical case studies from various countries. Panelists will revisit past examples of deindustrialization\, especially in coal mining\, to reframe them as energy transitions and engage more explicitly with their energy histories and stories. Events in the 1970s\, including but not limited to the multiple energy crises which have led to the emergence of the political concept of energy transition\, serve as examples for the complex interplay between labour\, environmentalism and energy production. Fifty years later\, we still discuss energy transitions but do not necessarily agree on how it should be happening and how we support workers who will lose their jobs as a consequence of these major transformations of energy systems which are also always inherently social systems. \nRegister on Eventbrite to get the Zoom link! \nPlease note: This online roundtable will be recorded and later uploaded to DePOT’s YouTube channel.  \nSpeakers \n\nAnna Bettini\, University of Calgary\nPetra Dolata\, University of Calgary\nWilliam Gillies\, Concordia University \nJeff Manual\, University of Southern Illinois Edwardsville\, Fulbright Canada Research Chair\, University of Calgary\nChad Montrie\, University of Massachusetts Lowell\, Fulbright Canada Research Chair\, University of Calgary\nRobert Suits\, University of Edinburgh\nAmber Ward\, University of St. Andrews

SUMMARY:Where did all the jobs go? A CIH and DePOT Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Where did all the jobs go? What the history of deindustrialization can tell us about working-class survival in the face of economic change  \nIn the midst of global ecological crisis\, working-class communities formed around resource extractive industries face an uncertain future. What lessons can be learned from the experience of diverse working-class areas across Canada and the Western world who have navigated the treacherous waters of deindustrialization in earlier periods\, and who continue to live in the aftermath of shutdowns? \nModerator: Jim Ellis\, Director of the Calgary Institute for the Humanities (CIH).  \nPresenters: \nAnna Bettini (Postdoctoral research associate at the Calgary Institute for Humanities at the University of Calgary)\nFred Burrill (Postdoctoral researcher at Cape Breton University)\nLachlan MacKinnon (Canada Research Chair (Tier II) In Post-Industrial Communities at Cape Breton University)\nLauren Laframboise (PhD student\, Concordia University)\nPetra Dolata (Associate Professor of History at the University of Calgary and Scholar in Residence (2019-2023) at the Calgary Institute for the Humanities)\nThis roundtable will be fully hybrid: join us at the University of Calgary’s Department of History (Social Sciences Building\, SS623\, no tickets required)\, or register on Eventbrite to join us on Zoom. \nThe Zoom link will be circulated to everyone who registered two weeks before the event.

SUMMARY:Nostalgia - a reassessment in the era of austerity
DESCRIPTION:This roundtable brings together scholars to focus on the role\, and representation\, of nostalgia in deindustrialisation studies. In their paradigm shifting piece\, Cowie and Heathcott (2003) urged us to ‘move beyond’ smokestack nostalgia and tales of victimisation through closure. However\, 20 years later\, this perspective requires revisiting. Across the deindustrialising world\, areas formerly built-up around industry continue to suffer from multiple deprivations in: crime; poverty; poor environment; addiction; unemployment; poor health\, and more. In this roundtable\, we consider how a reassessment of nostalgic reflections\, and their meanings\, can contribute to our understandings of experience in deindustrialisation’s half-life across generations. Taken together\, they offer fresh insights into how we can reconnect the history of deindustrialisation with the contemporary experience of those communities worst impacted. \nYou can get your Zoom tickets on the event’s Eventbrite page. \n\n\n\nChairs/Organisers: Dr Hilary Orange (Swansea University) and Dr Andy Clark (Newcastle University) \nPresenters: \n\nAndy Clark\, Newcastle University\nFred Burrill\, Cape Breton University\nJackie Clarke\, University of Glasgow\nSinead Burns\, Queen’s University Belfast\nStefan Berger\, Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum\nMagdalena Novoa\, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.\nEwan Gibbs\, University of Glasgow\n\nCo-sponsors: DePOT and CHART (Centre for Heritage Research and Training)\, Swansea University \nIf you are joining us on Zoom\, please note that the event will be recorded.
