Full Description


One of the most important developments in American politics during this century has been the growing prominence and influence of the Southern states on the national political landscape. "The New Politics of the Old South" examined Southern political trends at the end of the 20th century. Now extensively revised and updated as a second edition, it looks toward the future of politics in the South. The new edition continues the unique state-by-state analysis of political behaviour written by the country's leading scholars of Southern politics. Designed to be adopted for courses on Southern politics but accessible to interested general readers, this book traces the shifting trends of the Southern electorate and explains its growing influence on the course of national politics.
