This finely detailed statistical study of lynching in ten southern
states shows that economic and status concerns were at the heart of
that violent practice. Stewart Tolnay and E. M. Beck empirically
test competing explanations of the causes of lynching, using U.S.
Census and historical voting data and a newly constructed inventory
of southern lynch victims. Among their surprising findings:
lynching responded to fluctuations in the price of cotton,
decreasing in frequency when prices rose and increasing when they
fell.
