This year the annual DePOT conference was held in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada from June 21-24 2023. Two of the organizers, Lachlan MacKinnon and Sophia Richter, join us to talk about the themes of the conference and discuss the deindustrialization of Cape Breton Island. Regional underdevelopment, the role of the state, settler colonialism, and memories of working class radicalism shaped the Cape Breton experience. The conference itself built on connections made last year in the Ruhr, and much of the showcased research was collaborative and transnational.
