EBHA Terni Conference, 25 - 26 September 1998

 

Conference Program Deindustrialisation and Reindustrialisation in Europe During the Xxth Century Challenged in the twentieth century by the worldwide economic crisis of the 1930s, by two World Wars and the turbulent environment of the 1970s, Europe has experienced substantial structural changes. Notwithstanding these deeply destabilizing events, Europe's economic and industrial structure has, from time to time, been re-estabilished by largely successful re-industrialization policies as well as by spontaneous initiatives. "New industrialization" has taken a variety of forms. Sometimes it has been applied to a large unit or sector with significant spill-over effcts into the economy. In others, the restructuring process has involved specific regions or localities and has led to new national and local economic and social relationships. Again, government policies have tried, with different results, to manage the dynamics of these changes. The wide-ranging policy instruments involved have included macroeconomic policies, long-term planning, trade and innovation policies and the use of agencies. These have been used alongside more tightly focused initiatives aimed at specific industries or firms. The aim of the conference is to review the dynamics of de- and re-industrialization in a comparative perspective, with a special emphasis upon the interaction between the experience of specific countries and the emergence of the "global economy". Individual papers are gathered in thematic sessions of 90 minutes.
