Abstract:
Depression and war transformed the small community of Meat Camp during the 1930s and 1940s. Prior to this, much sewing and weaving was accomplished at home until modern transportation opened the community to modern stores where textiles could be bought. Accessibility and need drove the shift from home production to purchase with able bodied men going to war and able bodied women entering the workforce.

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.
