"This is an important, knowledge-enhancing, subject-enriching work
on a topic of major significance in understanding American
politics: recent decades of Republican growth in the South. It adds
to our understanding of realignment and political change more
broadly by its detailed consideration of the state of the parties.
Issues, elites, and institutions--an appropriately broad but rare
range of topics--figure prominently in the discussion. While many
contend racial attitudes realigned southern whites from the
Democrats to the Republicans, David Lublin emphasizes economic and
social issues while recognizing the place of racial
issues."--Harold W. Stanley, Geurin-Pettus Distinguished Chair in
American Politics and Political Economy, Southern Methodist
University, author of "Voter Mobilization and the Politics of Race"
"This book offers a broad examination of factors relating to the
development of the Republican party in the South, includes new and
valuable data sets, and reflects what is now expected of David
Lublin-his distinctive mixture of good social science, normative
consideration, and commonsensical understanding of politics."--John
H. Aldrich, author of "Why Parties? The Origins and Transformation
of Political Parties in America"
