Painting Dixie Red : When, Where, Why, and How the South Became Republican Paperback / softback
Edited by Glenn Feldman
Part of the New Perspectives on the History of the South series
Paperback / softback
Description
Has the South, once the ""Solid South"" of the Democratic Party, truly become an unassailable Republican stronghold?
If so, when, where, why, and how did this seismic change occur?
Moreover, what are the implications for the U.S. body politic?Painting Dixie Red is the first volume to grapple with these difficult yet critical questions.
In this fascinating and timely collection, a distinguished group of scholars engages in an enlightening debate.
Some make the case that the South has become Republican, and some contend that it has not.
Some outline the region's exceptionalism, and some reject the idea of regional distinctiveness.
Some point to white discontent over civil rights as the root of political changes, and some cite color-blind factors.
All offer invaluable insights into U.S. politics during these ultra-partisan times.
