Description

In order to systematize regional studies, the authors view the southern United States as an integrated system of economic, political, social, and educational institutions. The underlying theme is that if one wants to understand the South, it is necessary to examine the bonds among these various institutions. The new methodology presented is a type of systems analysis in which relevant forces affecting the South are identified.
