Structural change in basic industries is usually interpreted as an
autonomous economic process. Some authors claim that there is a
tendency to use the "end of the era of materials," thus resulting
in a decline of the basic industries. Such a process would
obviously benefit the environment. Classic economic theories, which
deal with structural change in a rather holistic way, correspond to
this trend, predicting either a shift towards manufacturing and
services or a relocation of old basic industries to developing
countries. On the basis of this dematerialization hypothesis,
comparative case studies analyze in detail the driving forces
behind industrial restructuring with regard to different industries
and countries in Europe, where such a decline has been observed in
recent years.
