This edited volume is divided into four sections. Part I
summarizes much of the relevant twentieth century history of black
political participation. Part II examines aspects of contemporary
black political participation, such as black political behavior in
the 1984 elections, a profile of black political activities, and
various facets of black mass and elite political activity. Part III
discusses the impact of Jesse Jackson's 1984 presidential campaign,
on both southern blacks and whites. The concluding section examines
on-going issues and/or barriers related to black political
participation, such as the impact of single-member districts, and
the changes in the party system due to black political activity.
Due to its comprehensive coverage and its impressive list of
contributors, Blacks in Southern Politics will interest academics
and politicians involved in southern politics, civil rights,
minority politics, and state and local government.
