Join us for a presentation by doctoral candidates Nicolas Arendt and Zoé Konsbruck, who will share their newest research on deindustrialization and the Luxembourg steel industry. Zoé will discuss the impact of the steel crisis on Luxembourg’s industrial towns and their adaptation to deindustrialization challenges. Nicolas will explore the significant transformation of the ARBED steel company and the acquisition and modernization of the former VEB Maxhütte Unterwellenborn in Thuringia in 1992.
