This report is the result of the first phase of the SNF Project on Industrial Towns titled Places that don t matter? Socio-economic transformation of industrial towns in Switzerland and Slovenia , SNF grant number 192764. The report explores industrial transformation in small- and medium-sized towns (SMSTs) using six case-study towns namely Biel/Bienne, Glarus and Mendrisio in Switzerland and Idrija, Kocevje, and Trbovlje in Slovenia. It provides a general overview of the institutional contexts of the case-study towns in their respective countries and regional profiles. The report describes the process of industrial transformations in different towns contexts.
