Adviser: Theda Skocpol.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Harvard University, 2005.

The study closes with an account of how these various paths out of Dixie have continued to shape these states' partisan change and socioeconomic development. The dissertation reorients the study of America's belated democratization and points to fruitful comparisons of the recent past of the American South with contemporary Latin America.

520 # $a The study closes with an account of how these various paths out of Dixie have continued to shape these states' partisan change and socioeconomic development. The dissertation reorients the study of America's belated democratization and points to fruitful comparisons of the recent past of the American South with contemporary Latin America.
520 # $a The study fords that the degree of centralization of political authority in these states shaped the ways in which Deep South Democratic politicians managed these transitions. South Carolina owed its much-ballyhooed "integration with dignity" to the effective centralization of the state's coercive apparatus. The state's rulers successfully harnessed the revolution. In Mississippi, the state's highly decentralized nature stymied political reforms that might have avoided the disastrous desegregation of the University of Mississippi and the highly destructive protracted democratization that followed. Georgia's county-unit system facilitated the decimation of statewide networks of black protest in the 1950s. By the early 1970s, the state Democratic party and state apparatus had effectively undergone a bifurcated democratization, as north Georgia smoothly accommodated to black protest and repaired relations with the national party, while south Georgia followed Mississippi's transition.
520 # $a This dissertation seeks to explain why similar Deep South states navigated the turbulent 1960s in starkly different ways. In doing so, it frames the eleven southern states of the old Confederacy as subnational authoritarian enclaves undergoing transitions to democratic rule. Drawing on comparative historical analysis, archival materials, and a range of other data, the study charts the ways in which three Deep South states---Georgia, Mississippi, and South Carolina---responded to democratization pressures from the federal government and, increasingly, from domestic insurgencies. The study considers such challenges as the abolition of the white primary in 1944, Truman's liberalization of the national party on racial equality in the late 1940s, Brown and the college desegregation crises it engendered, and the Civil and Voting Rights acts.
