Produktbeschreibung
In "The Impending Crisis of the South" and its companion "How to Meet It", Hinton Rowan Helper presents a provocative critique of Southern society, arguing that its economic decline and moral decay threaten its future. Helper emphasizes that slavery is not only morally problematic but also economically detrimental to non-slaveholding white farmers, who are increasingly impoverished and disenfranchised. He advocates for an urgent reform movement focused on improving the conditions of these non-slaveholding whites, asserting that their uplift is essential for the region's prosperity and stability. Helper's work challenges the prevailing pro-slavery stance by highlighting the economic disadvantages of slavery and calling for a shift toward policies that promote broader economic opportunity and social justice in the South.The Impending Crisis of the South - How to Meet it is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1860.
