DePOT Roundtable: Deindustrialization, Democracy and Fractured Survival

Deindustrialization and the Politics of Our Time

Join DePOT as we examine how deindustrialization interacts with our natural and political environments!

When factories close, they leave things behind. Whether we speak about the actual brick-and-mortar ruins, environmental contamination, or the structures of feeling that industrial work engendered, the traces remain. How then, do these traces react to new challenges and phenomena? Join DePOT for a roundtable showcasing new and exciting work from our affiliates, drawing links between the environmental impacts of deindustralization and the populist realignments that many democracies are experiencing.
