This is an award under the Research Planning Grant program for women scientists and engineers. The researcher will study the relationship between labor unrest and industrial restructuring in the automobile, textile, and mining industries in the twentieth century. She will extend her previous work on this topic to a broader range of industries, construct a world-wide data base, and formulate additional hypotheses as preparation for a subsequent, larger project that will attempt to test a variety of hypotheses about the forces behind industrial restructuring and relocation. This award will initiate research which should shed important light on the forces that are transforming manufacturing and employment in the modern world. As such this project has potential policy importance in that it may help us understand under what conditions companies do or do not decide to relocate or restructure. In addition to the scientific gains and social importance of this research, this award will materially assist a young researcher to prepare for a larger project, thereby contributing to the strengthening of the national base of women scientists and engineers.

这是研究计划资助计划下的一个奖项，授予女性科学家和工程师。研究人员将研究二十世纪汽车、纺织和采矿行业的劳工骚乱与产业结构调整的关系。她将把她之前在这个主题上的工作扩展到更广泛的行业，构建一个全球范围的数据库，并制定额外的假设，为随后的更大项目做准备，该项目将试图测试关于产业结构调整和搬迁背后力量的各种假设。这一奖项将启动研究，这些研究应该会对正在改变现代世界制造业和就业的力量产生重要的影响。因此，这个项目具有潜在的政策重要性，因为它可以帮助我们了解公司在什么条件下决定搬迁或重组。除了这项研究的科学成果和社会重要性之外，这一奖项还将大大帮助一名年轻的研究人员为一个更大的项目做准备，从而有助于加强国家女科学家和工程师的基础。
