Republican Party Politics and the American South, 1865-1968

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Traces the transformation of the Republican Party in the South after Reconstruction from a biracial organization to a mostly all-white one. This shift, combined with laws passed to disenfranchise blacks during the Jim Crow era, helps explain how the GOP emerged as a competitive and ultimately dominant electoral party in the late-twentieth century South.
