Abstract:
Southern manufacturing differs from manufacturing in the rest of the country. It lacks diversified industrial base, and is dominated by low-wage, low-value added, labor intensive, slow growth industries. In the past decades the south has undergone a number of changes resulting from rapid urbanization and industrialization; nevertheless, the region remains materially poor. Moriarty examines the reasons behind this using North Carolina as a case study.
