"During the past half century, the American south has undergone dramatic economic and social transformations. Gone is the South of cotton fields and cotton mills, of monocrop agriculture and rudimentary industries, of desperate poverty and stultifying racial segregation, the South that Franklin Roosevelt saw as "the nation's number one economic problem." But if that South is gone, how can we explain the rise of the "Sunbelt," and what has economic change meant to southerners - their daily lives, their attitudes, their culture? This series aims to answer these critical questions through a multidisciplinary analysis of the region's economic and social development since World War II. It seeks to present the best new research by historians, economists, sociologists, and geographers - fresh scholarship that investigates unexplored topics and reinterprets familiar trends."--Jacket.
