Abstract
Restructuring is defined as a change in the way that a system or structure is organized. In economic terms, it refers to the ways that sectors, industries, cities, and corporations are transformed from one state to another. Urban and economic geographers have been particularly interested in restructuring because of its inherently spatial dimensions. The dramatic shift in the orientation of city‐regional and national economies since the 1970s has been one of the most compelling economic geography storylines of the twentieth century. This entry tracks how geographers have studied economic restructuring while intimating some of the key areas of research for understanding restructuring in the twenty‐first century.
