Description and Table of Contents
Description
In recent decades, the decline of traditional manufacturing - deindustrialization - has been one of the most significant aspects of the restructuring of the American economy. David Koistinen examines the Massachusetts textile industry from the 1920s through the 1980s in order to better understand the process of industrial decline.
