Deindustrialization was primarily caused by a combination of globalization, technological advancements, and shifts in consumer preferences. As companies sought to reduce costs, many relocated manufacturing operations to countries with cheaper labor, leading to job losses in industrialized nations. Additionally, advancements in technology increased productivity and automation, reducing the need for a large workforce. Meanwhile, a growing demand for services over goods contributed to the decline of traditional manufacturing sectors.
