Book Synopsis European Industrial Heritage: The International Story by : European Route of Industrial Heritage
Download or read book European Industrial Heritage: The International Story written by European Route of Industrial Heritage and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its very beginning, industrialisation has crossed borders - it was never a purely national phenomenon. Since the mid-18th century new technologies and methods of production spread rapidly across Europe. Manufacturers built their factories in different countries and generated massive profits, and thousands of workers migrated to the emerging industrial areas. Trade unions fought successfully for workers rights which became embedded in the European welfare state of today. It was on these foundations that modern Europe was established, characterised by its great economic prosperity and its high standards of social and medical care. - - Every town, every industrial monument, and every workers' estate was, and still is, part of this process that started in Europe and subsequently spread across the world. But most visitors are still unaware of this. The closely connected network of European industrial regions that continue to inspire and strengthen each other is something that is rarely presented today at most industrial monuments and attractions. - - This must change! The ERIH network uncovers the European dimension of industrialisation, offering a hands-on experience of our collective European history. The aim is that every ERIH site will in future give visitors an insight into the various European links and interconnections. ERIH is supported in this by the European Commission's framework programme 'Creative Europe' which acknowledges the network's contribution to the conservation and presentation of European industrial heritage. This funding has enabled the production of this brochure which aims to encourage ERIH sites to present the European dimension of industrialisation to their visitors. Like the ERIH theme routes, the brochure outlines the history of the various industrial sectors, thus creating an exciting European narrative. Of course this is not intended to be exhaustive. Rather, it seeks to encourage its readers to focus particularly on the transnational aspects of European industrial heritage and provide ideas for including the international story in the sites' presentations. - - The timing is ideal since the EU has declared 2018 as the aEuropean Cultural Heritage Year. It will celebrate both: our common cultural roots and the cultural diversity of the continent, and both come together in the European industrial heritage, the specific cultural legacy of a Europe of regions. - - This brochure is a first step in presenting this complex subject and we look forward to receiving amendments and ideas to continue telling this exciting story.

Book Synopsis The Industrial Revolution and Work in Nineteenth Century Europe by : Lenard R. Berlanstein
Download or read book The Industrial Revolution and Work in Nineteenth Century Europe written by Lenard R. Berlanstein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-02 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Industrial Revolution is a central concept in conventional understandings of the modern world, and as such is a core topic on many history courses. It is therefore difficult for students to see it as anything other than an objective description of a crucial turning-point, yet a generation of social and labour history has revealed the inadequacies of the Industrial Revolution as a way of conceptualizing economic change. This book provides students with access to recent upheavals in scholarly debate by bringing a selection of previously published articles, by leading scholars and teachers, together in one volume, accompanied by explanatory notes. The editor's introduction also provides a synthesis and overview of the topic. As the revision of historical thought is a continual process, this volume seeks to bring the reinterpretation of such debates as working-class formation up to the present by introducing post-structuralist and feminist perspectives.

Book Synopsis Constructing Industrial Pasts by : Stefan Berger
Download or read book Constructing Industrial Pasts written by Stefan Berger and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2019-09-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1960s, nations across the “developed world” have been profoundly shaped by deindustrialization. In regions in which previously dominant industries faced crises or have disappeared altogether, industrial heritage offers a fascinating window into the phenomenon’s cultural dimensions. As the contributions to this volume demonstrate, even as forms of industrial heritage provide anchors of identity for local populations, their meanings remain deeply contested, as both radical and conservative varieties of nostalgia intermingle with critical approaches and straightforward apologias for a past that was often full of pain, exploitation and struggle.
Book Synopsis Screening European Heritage by : Paul Cooke
Download or read book Screening European Heritage written by Paul Cooke and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a unique examination of the way Europe’s past is represented on contemporary screens and what this says about contemporary cultural attitudes to history. How do historical dramas come to TV and cinema screens across Europe? How is this shaped by the policies and practices of cultural institutions, from media funding boards to tourist agencies and heritage sites? Who watches these productions and how are they consumed in cinemas, on TV and online?, are just some of the questions this volume seeks to answer. From The Lives of Others to Game of Thrones, historical dramas are a particularly visible part of mainstream European film production, often generating major national debates on the role of the past in contemporary national identity construction.
Book Synopsis The Long Road to the Industrial Revolution by : Jan Luiten van Zanden
Download or read book The Long Road to the Industrial Revolution written by Jan Luiten van Zanden and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-06-17 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did the Industrial Revolution happen in Western Europe? Was it a sudden acceleration of the European economy, or should we look at specific institutions arising in Western Europe since the Middle Ages? This book puts these big questions of European economic history in a global perspective, deals with the institutions that developed in Europe, and measures their relative efficiency over time and compared with other parts of Eurasia. It traces the growth of human capital in the centuries between 1000 and 1800, in comparison with China, Japan and India. It also demonstrates how important the European Marriage Pattern was for understanding Europe’s past. The result is a new synthesis of the origins of the Industrial Revolution.

Book Synopsis Industrial Heritage Tourism by : Philip Feifan Xie
Download or read book Industrial Heritage Tourism written by Philip Feifan Xie and published by Channel View Publications. This book was released on 2015 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the complex interplay between industrial heritage and tourism. It serves to stimulate meaningful dialogue about the socioeconomic values of industrial sites and the use of tourism for the growth of the creative economy, and to better understand how the collective social memory and local identity connected to these sites have been shaped by different social groups over time. The volume presents a conceptual framework underpinned by case studies drawn from Asia, North America, Australasia and Europe and advocates the creation of mixed-use spaces and stakeholder collaboration to develop tourism at industrial heritage sites. These theoretical and practical perspectives will be of use to researchers and students of heritage tourism, urban and regional planning and tourism marketing.

Book Synopsis A Geography of Heritage by : Brian Graham
Download or read book A Geography of Heritage written by Brian Graham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of heritage relates to the ways in which contemporary society uses the past as a social, political or economic resource. However, heritage is open to interpretation and its value may be perceived from differing perspectives - often reflecting divisions in society. Moreover, the schism between the cultural and economic uses of heritage also gives rise to potential conflicts of interest. Examining these issues in depth, this book is the first sustained attempt to integrate the study of heritage into contemporary human geography. It is structured around three themes: the diversity of use and consumption of heritage as a multi-sold cultural and economic resource; the conflicts and tensions arising from this multiplicity of uses, producers and consumers; and the relationship between heritage and identity at a variety of scales.
