DEINDUSTRIALIZATION AND REGIONALIZATION: CLASS ALLIANCE AND CLASS STRUGGLE

Neil Smith

Papers in Regional Science, 1984, vol. 54, issue 1, 113-128

Abstract: ABSTRACT The process of deindustrialization is place‐specific, and is partly responsible for the redefinition of the regional structure and the transformation of the basis, function and scale of regional differentiation. Defined as a secular, uncompensated devaluation of capital, it is part of a larger spatial restructuring, associated with economic crisis. Most participants in the debate over deindustrialization have assumed that some form of class alliance is the best strategy for workers to pursue in overcoming the regional unemployment problems caused by deindustrialization. This paper argues the opposite.
