From the publisher : In 1945 Ruhr pits faced enormous gaps in the workforce as a result of wartime losses and pre-war difficulties in recruiting young labour. Regenerating the workforce was the key to reviving Ruhr coal production and thus to German and Western European economic recovery. Using archival materials, private papers, contemporary printed sources and interviews. Recasting the Ruhr analyses the measures undertaken to win new labour for the Ruhr and the attempts to turn the newcomers into productive and settled miners. In so doing the book contributes to our understanding of a number of different features of the reconstruction, notably the origins and limitations of the 'economic miracle', the impact of and response to the enormous population mobility after the war and the nature of post-war industrial relations.
