The question is important and journalism is anxious at a time when there is talk of a growing gap between the city and the country. At the same time, the concept of the rust belt is far from problem free. According to Today's News, it's "a sector historically characterized by a large manufacturing sector, but one that, like globalization and a growing service sector, faces new challenges. . "These areas are found, inter alia, in Småland, Skåne, Dalsland, Jämtland and Lapland.
The fact that we talk about the political influence of the Ferruginous Belt is largely due to American influences Donald Trump won the presidential election thanks to the support of voters in the American belts, where discontent was huge and populist messages well received.Even in Britain, there are similar stories – the dissatisfaction that sprouted in places where the manufacturing sector fell sharply was a prerequisite for Brexit.
With the analysis of imported belts, Sweden follows a finite job description. The basis is that in the rust belt there is the loss of globalization, but what is the quality of this description in Sweden? It is not very good, it should be so.
Of course, it there are cities [1 9459006] because the local industry has suffered big problems. That politics has an answer to how these places – built in great prosperity – can still be good places to live is urgent.
At the same time, industrial communities are not jobs for all built places. A closer look shows that in the former Swedish public service village, there are some of the losers of globalization, but also many of the winners. Take Ludvika as an example – there is "the power center of the world". In Ludvika, the giant group develops and manufactures ABB – with 2,700 employees at the station – products and systems in the field of power transmission. Finspång, where Siemens employs 2,800 people, manufactures turbines sold worldwide
. The Gruvön paper mill in Grums, where SCA owns Sundsvall and Timrå and Holmen paper mill in Norrköping and Norrtälje municipalities.
Many small and large manufacturing companies across the country hold leading positions around the world. Even in places where many jobs have disappeared, there is a strong industry.
In an international comparison, it is also unlikely that in old Swedish farms there will be more winners than losers on globalization. Everything in Swedish rust belts is not rusty. And maybe in many places we should talk about export belts rather than belts.
