Reindustrialization is the economic, social, and political process of organizing national resources for the purpose of re-establishing deteriorated industries or change declining or contaminant industries to emerging or cleaner ones. The process often proceeds as a result of a need to reinvigorate national economies. It is comparable to notions of Post-industrial society.
Deindustrialization has caused a widespread decrease in manufacturing of several countries. Certain citizens of those countries have diagnosed specific areas of faltering of industry and their causes. The decline in manufacturing relative to population is generally said to be the center of deindustrialization. The causes behind why manufacturing has been declining are various. They include governmental and corporate policies that antagonize manufacturing, financial domination, and out-sourcing of capital. Reindustrialization serves to address these causes and advance industrialization.
Although the term "reindustrialization" connotes heavy machinery, this is not necessary. Reindustrialization can refer to anything that is industrious and recent. This can refer to any modern industry, such as computing, but especially computation, which can model nearly anything. There is a new trend wherein an increasingly broad area of everyday life is modeled in simulation ("in silico"). These simulations can be so real that their handling can affect the phenomenon that they simulate. This provides a major basis for the modern economy, which works on the basis of backing real things.

Declines in manufacturing are not without their effects. Trade deficits of various countries are said to have originated as a result of those countries' not manufacturing for themselves.[1] In other words, deficits of manufacturing are said to be able to result in trade deficits. This has global implications. As of yet, there are no specific programs for global reindustrialization. The imperative, then, is to direct national economies to the end of reindustrializing. Although no nation, as of yet, has brought simulation into the spotlight, there is specialized interest in deriving energy from simulations, even galactic simulations. Let it be said that simulation itself serves as a window through which real things can be influenced. This is likely to catch on with the public.
The bolstering of manufacturing being central to preventing further deindustrialization, certain people have advocated specific strategies and policies. One of which is the digitalization of all data, from TV to books. However, there is a modern trend, called cloud computing. This is the collectivization of computing such that devices are distributed to the end-user. This kind of computing, when compared with user-supplied algorithms, can serve real needs, and as a basis may serve to back national currencies, such as the dollar.
The Obama Administration has simplified its relation between its own motives and the practices of the digital economy: namely, that legal regulations are forms of simulations, which can be computerized. However, simulations are windows into real things. Practiced economically, this would be an evolution of Marxian central control. However, the main focus of issuing that kind of control has been either insufficient digitalization or use of command. Paper fills in the gap between these two things.
There are moves now to simulate data as it occurs in nature. This would amount to a progression of the realization of otherwise unreal or purely virtualized values. One way to do this is the double-practice of virtualizing what are already virtualized values. A military doctrine has been that "virtual presence amounts to actual absence" - this can be applied twice to realize actual data. This has been the whole emergent purpose of modern military games: two or more air drones emerge from cyberspace as real entities.
Similarly, the use of simple interfacing between the human and the abstract "cloud-computer" can amount to realization of otherwise purely virtual data; the idea is to feed the human with actionable data. This is a form of specialization - between supercomputer background and simple terminal front-end. This means that each end can be fully virtual and emerge together as a real state of being. As if this were not abstract enough, this will depend on the human's ability to plant himself totally and virtually into the network. The combination of human virtual presence and applied supercomputing will amount to the increased realization of human beings, whehter it be their personality, general intelligence, or economic role-placement.
As is becoming of America, Europe, and China and Japan in particular, there is emerging a global "caste order" analogous to that of ancient India. America and its direct economic allies are merging to become a "caste of high technology" - namely, that of research and development. In a word, their purpose will be the development an application of science. Said simply, the role of these countries will be to spear-head technology as an end unto itself. The whole identity of these countries will rest upon their cooperation in science. These countries will deal with food-producing countries in mutual exchange by use of technology-for-food programs.
Social evolution is a natural result of increased specialization and economic growth. The main kind of description there is of the richness of information in society its complexity. Measure of complexity is used because no other factor can account for that richness. That being said, complexity draws downward "the light of existence" (Ein Soph). As a result, society receives help along its way to development and spurs this by the growth of complexity. Because of this, economic development follows an S-curve of punctuated equilibrium and complexity becomes useful.
Complexity being highlighted for its usefulness, there are ways to both increase and manage it. Computation is key. Specifically, computers are indicated for integration into society. The reason for this is that modern computers mirror and model human intents and purposes, which allows us to better understand ourselves and our needs. It is computation, largely alone, that allows humanity to reflect on the spirit of the day and render it more than a mere abstraction. Likewise, computers today are necessary for high-value products and services.
