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:Deindustrializing Eastern Europe
DESCRIPTION:After the collapse of Communism in East Central and Eastern Europe\, most countries transitioned rapidly to liberal capitalist regimes. This transition process was often characterized by neoliberal strategies for transitioning which resulted in accelerated processes of deindustrialization\, as many of the industries that operated under Communism either were not profitable under capitalist market conditions or were bought up and subsequently destroyed by their western competitors. This panel will examine deindustrialization processes in post-Communist countries and ask about their politics. Furthermore\, the panel will also examine to which degree deindustrialization was followed by industrial heritage inititatives or whether the vanished industries were quickly demolished with little material heritage still reminding people of their previous existence. What memories of an industrial past and of deindustrialization processes exist in various East European countries and can we see differences and similarities between them. Among our panelists are experts from Poland\, Hungary\, the Czech Republic and the successor states of the former Yugoslavia. \nChairperson: Stefan Berger\, Institute for Social Movements\, Ruhr University Bochum\, and Juliane Tomann\, University of Regensburg \nSpeakers: \n\nMagda Rez-Wozniak\, University of Warsaw\nJoanna Wawrzyniak\, Head of the Social Memory Laboratory at the Institute of Sociology\, University of Warsaw.\nGyorgyi Nemeth\, University of Miskolc\, Hungary\nTibor Valuch\, Research chair at the Center for Social Sciences\, Hungarian Academy of Sciences Centre for Excellence\nAndrea Pokludova\, University of Ostrava\, Department of History and Center for Economic and Social History\nUlf Brunnbauer\, Director of the Institute for East and Southeast European Studies and chair of Southeast and East European History at the University of Regensburg\n\nReserve your tickets on Eventbrite!  \nIf you’re in Montreal\, you can join us at COHDS at Concordia University to watch the roundtable.

SUMMARY:DEINDUSTRIALIZING ITALY
DESCRIPTION:DEINDUSTRIALIZING ITALY \nJune 7\, 2022 – 10am Eastern (4pm in Italy ) \nREGISTER HERE \nFor forty years\, deindustrialization in Italy has been portrayed as a specter\, a threat\, a risk – hardly ever as a reality or a fact. The country remains tightly bound to its identity as a manufacturing nation\, which has managed to overcome the crises of Fordism thanks to its dense fabric of highly specialized small and medium-sized enterprises. However\, at the same time\, deindustrialization has been ongoing: factories\, methods of production\, and work cultures have disappeared\, often without conflict\, memory or research. It is only in the 21st century that these changes and their consequences have begun to take hold\, and a genealogy and map of Italian deindustrialization has begun to be drawn up. At present\, industrial crisis mainly takes the form of the abandonment of Italian facilities by multinational corporations that took over from state-owned enterprises and national business groups during the wave of globalization and privatization in the 1990s. \nThis roundtable brings together researchers that study deindustrialization beyond the traditional heartlands of big industry\, highlighting the links between global processes and the persistence of local identities as a resource for resistance and redefinition of the meaning of work. In Italy\, deindustrialization is an ongoing story in a dual sense\, representing continued economic change and a history that is beginning to be written. \n\nPresenters: \nFilippo Sbrana (University for Foreigners of Perugia) \nValerio Caruso (University of Torino-University of Firenze) \nEloisa Betti (University of Bologna) \nTom Baker (University of Bristol) \nAlberto Prunetti (writer\, Piombino\, Toscana) \nBruno Settis (Scuola Normale Superiore of Pisa) \nDiscussant: Stefano Musso (University of Torino) \nChair: Gilda Zazzara (Universita Ca’Foscari Venezia) \n  \nPhoto: Collettivo Gkn © Andrea Sawyerr.

SUMMARY:La désindustrialisation en France
DESCRIPTION:La désindustrialisation en France    \nRegister here.  \n  \nJanuary 28\, 2022 – 9am EST (3pm CET)    \n  \nThe study of deindustrialization in France is flourishing with new books\, special issues\, and dissertations coming out regularly. The DePOT panel will consider this new scholarship and situate it within the transnational field. The panel will be in French but many of the presentations will be subtitled in English – thus bridging the language divide. It therefore represents a good opportunity for all of us to engage with the French scholarship.   \n  \n\n  \nWith presentations from: \nMarion Fontaine    \nPascal Raggi    \nJackie Clarke    \nRenaud Becot   \nPierre Toussenot     \nThéo Georget  \nSerena Boncompagni   \nXavier Vigna\, discussant   \nChaired by Fred Burrill  \n  \nPhoto: Site of the closed Moulinex factory in Cormelles-le-Royal\, showing the words “no to closure” spray-painted on the building during the struggle against the plant’s closure in 2001.

SUMMARY:DEINDUSTRIALIZING AUSTRALIA 
DESCRIPTION:DePOT’s Fall 2021 Roundtable Series: Rethinking Deindustrialization Studies \nThis roundtable series invites us to revisit our understanding of the field of deindustrialization studies. Two sessions expand the geographic imaginary from the old industrial heartlands of Western Europe and North America. Another asks us to make gender analysis more central.  The final session brings curatorial and archival knowledge into the conversation.   \nThursday September 16th 6:00-8:00 am (Eastern Standard Time – apologies to North Americans) or: 8pm (Sydney\, Australia)\, 11am (UK)\, 12 noon (Germany\, France\, Italy).  \nThis event is co-organized with two Australian Research Council funded projects on “History\, Heritage and Environmental Change in a Deindustrialised Landscape” (based at Macquarie University) and “Continuity and Change in the Australian Industrial Landscape” (based at the University of Wollongong).  \nRegister here. This event will be held on Zoom. The event will be taking place in English\, with presentations in French translated to English via closed captions. If you have any additional access needs please contact the organizer.\n \n\nThe recording for this event can also be viewed here. \nChairperson: Steven High\, Concordia University.  \n\nTanya Evans\, Macquarie University. \nLucy Taksa\, Macquarie University. \nChris Gibson\, University of Wollongong \nChantel Carr\, University of Wollongong \nSeamus O’Hanlon\, Monash University. \nJesse Adams Stein\, University of Technology Sydney. \nEric Eklund\, Federation University. \n\n*** \nCover Image: View of the petrochemical plants from the port area\, Porto Marghera\, 2016.
