Rethinking City in the Industrial Aftermath: Industrial Nostalgia and Environmental Fallouts

The paper examines the ruptures of postindustrial cities that are a result of industrial decline. It has two goals. At one hand, it aims to outline common challenges of postindustrial transformations and point out their shared features. On the other hand, it wishes to address the exceptions from commonalities established in the studies of postindustrial cities and thus determine the significance of context-based interpretations of postindustrial space and life. The paper urges the discussion at a more general level on how postindustrial cities tackle social challenges primarily related to ecological fallouts, unemployment, public health issues and quality of life in deindustrialised or semi- industrialised surroundings. It examines the role of industrial nostalgia in the remaking of postindustrial present. The focus is on the everyday life of postindustrial communities, but also on the envisaging and re-imagining of communal urban futures.
