The aim of the project is to investigate the start-up and development of the cotton textile industry in Malmö from 1850 to 1920, to highlight a) key actors in the process, b) the role the cotton textile industry played in the industrial development of Malmö, and c) how that process is linked to international economic and industrial development. We want to make this accessible to the public, as we believe that knowledge of history is a central part of people’s identity.
