Is it possible for America and Western Europe to re-industrialize without exploiting the Global South? (hexbear.net)

It appears to me that the complete deindustrialization of the imperial core is a historical arc that, since 1973, has been more or less unstoppable. The question is, if a socialist world revolution were to happen in the near future, and they basically established JDPON, how would it be possible to reindustrialize the former imperialist nations without relying on exploiting the former periphery countries? The actual productive capacity has been decimated.

Yes it is, but it would require very far going changes in politics and economic, basically a revolution.
