Description
The PhD project aims to add to our understanding of regional uneven development in Sweden and how it has shaped patterns of intra-regional inequality. Specifically, it seeks to understand the process of deindustrialisation and how it shaped the prevalence of lower- and higher-paid employment across Swedish regions.
Doing so, it also engages with and problematizes how geographies and history are approached in quantitative studies within economic geography. Primarily, by proposing alternative ways to trace, contextualise and localise regional uneven development.
