Re-Constructing the Post-Soviet Industrial Region
Author: Adam Swain
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134353820
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
This book examines the political economy of attempts to restructure the Donbass, one of the Soviet Union's most important 'old economy' 'rustbelt' industrial regions. It shows how local interest groups have successfully frustrated the central government's and the World Bank's proposed market-oriented restructuring, and how a manufacturing-based regional economy is surviving, partially, with restructuring postponed.

Restructuring Regional and Local Economies
Author: George Blazyca
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351761064
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
This title was first published in 2003. Throughout Western Europe and the former Soviet bloc, the structural shift from traditional heavy industry towards lighter manufacturing and services has often had a strong regional dimension. This volume brings together researchers and practitioners from Scotland and Poland to share such restructuring experiences. The Poles, now closer than ever to EU membership, are eager to draw on Western experience while Western experts and institutions have an opportunity to contribute to shaping regional policy in Central Europe. The book is divided into four sections: the first examines economic transformation and restructuring; the second focuses on social partnerships and their role in regional development; the third looks at enterprise-supporting initiatives; the final section questions the role of FDI. Its Scottish-Polish focus provides a fresh perspective on policy for regional and local development, summarising recent developments in both countries and stressing the importance of building appropriate institutional capacity to promote strong local economies.

International Capitalism and Industrial Restructuring
Author: Richard Peet
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040124178
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
First published in 1987, International Capitalism and Industrial Restructuring counters the idea that industrial restructuring is a relatively problem-free stage in the evolution to a post-industrial society. The editor argues that the permanent loss of eight million manufacturing jobs in the advanced industrial countries over the past ten years has had extremely serious effects on people, economies, and societies, and that it is a major cause of economic recession. The six million jobs gained in the newly industrializing countries pay low wages, expose workers to hazards, destroy local cultures, and fail in generating integrated development for the Third World. Many outstanding articles are included, drawn from a wide variety of radical journals, with introductions that set the scene and pose challenging questions. All students and researchers concerned with industrial restructuring in the capitalist world will find the book valuable as a radical critique of widespread current economic problems.

New Processes in Old Industrial Regions
Author: Jan Sucha Ek
Publisher: LAP Lambert Academic Publishing
ISBN: 9783848424290
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
This monograph represents an attempt to provide updated overview and interpretations of initial 15 years of restructuring in traditional industrial areas in Germany (Saxony), Czech Republic (Moravian-Silesian Region) and Poland (Silesian Voivodeship). While these regions share socialist past, transformation processes in East Germany were influenced by matured institutions as well as by relatively sufficient capital resources. In the Czech Republic and Poland transformation of these old industrial regions was conducted in relatively fast way and with insufficient institutional and financial support. Albeit there are substantial differences in territorial statistics of individual countries, the chapters of our monograph follow the same pattern, which comprise rank-territorial perspective of restructuring in the given region (both national and regional levels) and functional dimension of restructuring (including traditional industries, development of new activities as well as communication dimension of restructuring).
