Is the industry leaving Europe? In any case, their representatives are threatening to do so if something does not change quickly. It is doubtful whether a ‘post-industrial society’ would be desirable. Author and natural scientist Christian Mähr explains the background to the specter of deindustrialization.
There is currently a specter haunting Europe: the specter of deindustrialization. Economically liberal professors, corporate spokespersons and bourgeois parties are joining forces against this. The fear: ‘big’ industry could withdraw from European countries. Where? To Asia of course, although it no longer really matters which part of this continent that is. Wherever – from a European perspective – endless, busy armies run huge industrial conglomerates producing everything from paper clips to large power plants.
