Originally published in 1989. The international steel industry
suffered a major decline after the onset of world recession in
1973, perhaps suffering more plant closures and job losses than any
other sector. This book analyses the decline, surveying the various
factors which have contributed to it, such as changing production
strategies, changes in demand and world trade and changing regional
production trends. It goes on to examine the impact of decline on
steel-making communities, considering the various local, national
and international initiatives to assist the affected areas and the
way these initiatives have been devised and implemented. The
authors conclude that none of these policies has satisfactorily
resolved the crisis in the old steel producing areas and that a
major crisis in these areas continues. Finally they discuss the
social and political options open to these localities for the
future.
