The eco-restructuring of the Ruhr area presents a remarkable case of a managed transition, bringing out the importance of regional actors and factors, alongside external stimuli. The evidence in support of the authors’ hypothesis of a managed transition in the Ruhr district is: (i) the vision of blue skies above the Ruhr, (ii) the reconstruction of the Emscher river system, (iii) the emerging energy transition. The ongoing transition of the Ruhr district requires further analysis which the authors plan to undertake. The chapter provides a first attempt at offering an evidence-based narrative of a region as a real-world laboratory for ecological modernization.
