Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Employing a framework of production and consumption, the paper sets out to identify weaknesses within industrial archaeology and to point towards [a] research agenda. Some 340 publications in the Journal of Industrial Archaeology, Industrial Archaeology and Industrial Archaeology Review are compared with the Standard Industrial Classification, revealing a skewed pattern in favour of four out of the nineteen industrial groups - metallic mining and processing, non-metallic mining and processing, textiles, and food and drink. Ten industrial groups attracting the most publications were selected for analysis, which indicates that the discipline is weak on twentieth-century industries with large plants, and on industries employing modern, sophisticated technology. It is demonstrated that when consumption is disaggregated into its four components, industrial archaeology is strong on intermediate manufacturing and distributive markets, and it is argued that weaknesses in wholesaling, retailing, and final domestic and service markets are more apparent than real. | ||
