Tracing the half-life of deindustrialization

View Item Record

Description:

Sherry Linkon, professor in the Department of Education at Georgetown University and author of "The half-life of deindustrialization: working-class writing about economic restructuring", delivers a talk entitled, "Tracing the half-life of deindustrialization: voices of Michigan." Linkon talks about the long term impact deindustrialization has on families and communities, specifically in Michigan. She argues that deindustrialization literature not only gives voices to those who have lived through deindustrialization, but that it is also a more effective way to promote social and political change in communities. Linkon answers questions from the audience. The event is convened by Professor John P. Beck from the Michigan State University School of Human Resources and Labor Relations.
