Even as the global economy of the twenty-first century continues its dramatic and unpredictable transformations, the landscapes it leaves in its wake bear the indelible marks of their industrial past. Whether in the form of abandoned physical structures, displaced populations, or ecological impacts, they persist in memory and lived experience across the developed world. This collection explores the affective and “more-than-representational” dimensions of post-industrial landscapes, including narratives, practices, social formations, and other phenomena. Focusing on case studies from across Europe, it examines both the objective and the subjective aspects of societies that, increasingly, produce fewer things and employ fewer workers.

George Jaramillo is a Historical Architect working at the Outer Banks of North Carolina in the United States. His work looks at climate change adaptation of historic structures and landscapes particularly due to sea level rise and storms. He uses heritage practices to study elements of industrial, rural and coastal landscapes to enable future development.
