Scholars from five nations share personal stories of ruin and ruination and ask others what it means to be working class in a postindustrial world. Together, they open a window on the lived experiences of people living at ground zero of deindustrialization, revealing its layered impacts and examining how workers, environmentalists, activists, and the state have responded to its challenges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steven High\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0774834943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780774834940\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of British Columbia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 388\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Steven High","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46250447175935,"sku":"9780774834940","price":37.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ecf2bf03-9b84-4184-971c-c1591cb60173.jpg?v=1729600347","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-deindustrialized-world-steven-high-9780774834940","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
