{"product_id":"women-and-gender-in-the-new-south-isbn-9780882952659","title":"Women and Gender in the New South","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn every age and in every culture there have been women who challenged the prevailing gender prescriptions and struck a nerve, resulting in waves of either change or repression. In Women and Gender in the New South, Elizabeth Hayes Turner draws on a multiplicity of sources—part of the great outpouring of works in the field of women’s history that has emerged in the past 40 years—to bring together in one volume the history of conservative, moderate, and even radical women’s groups. The book demonstrates how women and men from different racial and economic backgrounds not only weathered but also shaped the political and cultural landscape of the New South. Employing women's history, gender analysis, and race and class studies, Women and Gender in the New South shapes this accumulated scholarship into an interpretative overlay that takes southern women and men from the ravages of one war to the opportunities of another.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eForeword\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Women and Families in the Civil War Era\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWar’s End\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter One Women, Gender, and Race in Reconstructing the South\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReconstructing the South\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfrican American Families after the War\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhite Families after the War\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFarming among African Americans\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWomen’s Invisible Household Economy\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfrican American Women and Paid Work\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhite Farming Families and Women’s Work\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFrom Family Farm to Mill and Village\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGender and Race in the Coal Fields of Alabama, 1878-1908\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Two Gender, Race, and the Construction of White Supremacy\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCreating the Lost Cause\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEducating the New Generation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChanges in Whites’ Attitudes\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Gendered Origins of Disfranchisement\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Success of the Populist Party and its Aftermath\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLynching for Southern Womanhood\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Three Prelude to Reform in the South\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReligion and New Roles for Women\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRelief and benevolent Institutions\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTemperance and Prohibition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Farmers’ Alliances and Women’s Education\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Women’s Club Movement\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Four Southern Women and the Progressive Spirit\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSouthern Progressivism\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWomen and Municipal Housekeeping\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eProgressive Reform at the State Level\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReform of the Penal System\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEducating the Children of the South\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWomen and Labor Reform\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHealth Reform and Eugenics\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGender and Legal Reform\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Five Women and Politics in the South\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Strategic South in the Woman Suffrage Movement\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFirst-Generation Woman Suffragists, 1890-1910\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSecond-Generation Woman Suffragists, 1910-1920\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfrican American Women Organize for the Vote\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorld War I\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRatification of the Nineteenth Amendment\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe New Woman in Politics\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Six Gender, Race, and the “Modern” Decades\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Thoroughly Modern Southern Woman\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSouthern Music: The Gendered Art\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWomen Writers and Southern Literature\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRe-creating a White Man’s South\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBlack Southerners and the Great Migration\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterracial Beginnings and the Anti-Lynching Campaign\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Seven The Great Depression, and the New Deal\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Depression Comes Early to the South\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFranklin D.
