The Archaeology of Industrialization — New Directions

The ‘Archaeology of Industrialization’ conference was a joint venture by the Society for Post-Medieval Archaeology and Association for Industrial Archaeology: two organizations with very different origins and developments, and still, to an extent, different mindsets. The archaeology of industrialization, then, has until recently been studied by two rather-separate communities, deriving from different roots and operating in separate sub-disciplines. A further theme that needs development in the archaeology of industrialization is that of psychology and mindset (developing from the ideas of Uzzell in this volume), though, in the early 21st century, the interaction needs to be as much with cognitive studies and neuroscience as with traditional psychology. As well as the role of mindset in innovation, and its differences between social, occupational, religious, and ethnic subgroups, it might look at the effects of specific workplace spaces and environments on the behaviour and mental life of their occupants
