Sociology of science and technology on the trail of (de)industrialization

The team visited the Hoesch-Museum and learned about the development of the industrial city of Dortmund and structural change since the 1970s as part of a guided tour. Work, technology and science combined with migration and mobility, ecology and economy. Very exciting insights, even if we haven't seen everything yet.
