520 8 Annotation|bInSouthern Society and Its Transformations, a
new set of scholars challenge conventional perceptions of
the antebellum South as an economically static region
compared to the North. Showing that the pre-Civil War
South was much more complex than once thought, the essays
in this volume examine the economic lives and social
realities of three overlooked but important groups of
southerners: the working poor, non-slaveholding whites,
and middling property holders such as small planters,
professionals, and entrepreneurs. The nine essays that
compriseSouthern Society and Its Transformationsexplore
new territory in the study of the slave-era South,
conveying how modernization took shape across the region
and exploring the social processes involved in its
economic developments. The book is divided into four parts,
each analyzing a different facet of white southern life.
The first outlines the legal dimensions of race relations,
exploring the effects of lynching and the significance of
Georgias vagrancy laws. Part II presents the advent of the
market economy and its effect on agriculture in the South,
including the beginning of frontier capitalism. The third
section details the rise of a professional middle class in
the slave era and the conflicts provoked. The books last
section deals with the financial aspects of the
transformation in the South, including the credit and debt
relationships at play and the presence of corporate
entrepreneurship. Between the dawn of the nation and the
Civil War, constant change was afoot in the American
South. Scholarship has only begun to explore these
progressions in the past few decades and has given too
little consideration to the economic developments with
respect to the working-class experience. These essays show
that a new generation of scholars is asking fresh
questions about the social aspects of the Souths economic
transformation. Southern Society and Its Transformationsis
a complex look at how whole groups of traditionally
ignored white southerners in the slave era embraced
modernizing economic ideas and actions while accepting a
place in their race-based world. This volume will be of
interest to students of Southern and U.S. economic and
social history.
