Chad Broughton : ウィキペディア英語版 | Chad Broughton Chad Broughton is author of ''Boom, Bust, Exodus: The Rust Belt, the Maquilas, and a Tale of Two Cities'' and contributor to ''The Atlantic''. Broughton is an American sociologist at the University of Chicago in the Public Policy Studies program in the College.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chad Broughton )〕 His areas of specialty include ethnography, urban sociology, poverty and inequality, transnationalism and immigration, and labor studies and the sociology of work. Broughton, born in 1971, received his Bachelor of Arts from Indiana University in 1993 and his PhD from the University of Chicago in 2001. He taught at Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois, from 2001 to 2006. == ''Boom, Bust, Exodus'' == ''Boom, Bust, Exodus'' is the narrative nonfiction account of a Maytag appliance factory that relocates from Galesburg, Illinois, a small city at the western edge of the American Rust Belt, to Reynosa, Tamaulipas, a booming city at the U.S.-Mexico border. The book provides a detailed account of these two places as they change over time drawing on industrial histories, ethnographic observation, oral history interviews, and fieldwork on both sides of the border. In the Galesburg chapters, ''Boom, Bust, Exodus'' explores how blue collar families cope, adapt, and, in some cases, thrive, in the decade after the devastating 2004 layoffs. In Reynosa, which in 2015 had nearly 100,000 industrial jobs in the maquiladora (export-oriented factories) sector, ''Boom, Bust, Exodus'' offers a ground-level look at Mexico's rapid transition to a globalized economy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Banco de Información Económica (BIE) )〕 In addition, to tell Reynosa's story, Broughton takes the reader to rural Veracruz—from which many of the maquiladora workers have migrated—in order to more fully understand the brave new world of North American economic integration. According to the publisher, "''Boom, Bust, Exodus'' gives us the voices of those who have borne the heaviest burdens of the economic upheavals of the past three decades. A deeply personal work grounded in solid scholarship, this important, immersive, and affecting book brings home the price and the cost of globalization."〔(Oxford University Press, ''Boom, Bust, Exodus'' )〕
