This report was compiled by a group of members of the “Technology & Society” section of the Académie royale de Belgique. As the title and subsequent headings indicate, this is a cry of alarm in the face of an extremely worrying situation where the EU Member States and European Union as a whole seem powerless to halt the deindustrialization of Europe notwithstanding efforts which it would be unfair not to recognize.
It was subsequently decided to further their considerations of the industry and society issue, more particularly to include a much-needed re-definition of the concepts of industry and industrialization that today cover a reality far different from what it was just a few decades ago. From this inevitably arose other topics to be focused on, hence this report is to be regarded as the first of a series.
