Publisher's Synopsis
This book looks at how restructuring processes have worked out within one of the UK?s traditional industrial heartland areas. West Yorkshire has undergone a marked economic and social transformation towards a more diversified local economy and social structure, but restructuring has worked out in very different ways in different parts of the region. The book examines local aspects of some of the major dimensions of global restructuring processes as they are mapped out within the West Yorkshire region and the aim is to look at the internal variety within one of the UK?s oldest industrial heart lands in terms of socio-economic structures, dynamic and policy responses in the region.
