Democracy Heading South
National Politics in the Shadow of Dixie
by Augustus B. Cochran
- 1 Want to read
"In this book, Cochran links regional to national politics to show how our political institutions have come to resemble those of the old Solid South. The regional politics of that earlier era, he reminds us, offered little real political choice, was dominated by one-party politics, answered to well-heeled special interests, stoutly resisted federal power, ignored the region's festering racism, and promoted demagoguery and personality over substance and true accountability.
For Cochran, the sense of deja vu is overwhelming - and alarming."--BOOK JACKET.
