Old South, New South: Revolutions in the Southern Economy since the Civil War

Old South, New South: Revolutions in the Southern Economy since the Civil War In this provocative analysis of the postbellum southern economy, Gavin Wright finds in the Souths peculiar labour market the answer to the perennial question of why the region remained backward for so long. After the Civil War, Wright explains, the South continued to be a low-wage regional market embedded in a high-wage national economy.
