Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references (p. 583-610) and index Sloss Furnaces and the Rise of the Birmingham District contradicts earlier interpretations of southern industrialization by showing that Birmingham, which became a leading symbol of the New South, was in fact deeply rooted in the antebellum plantation system and its "peculiar institution," slavery. As Lewis demonstrates, southern businessmen pursued their own indigenous model of economic growth and were selective in how they imported capital, machinery, and technical expertise from outside the region. The racial crises that erupted in Birmingham during the 1960s can be traced, in part, to labor-intensive developmental strategies that were present from the birth of a city that might have become a bastion of industrial slavery if the South had won the Civil War |

David Lewis Tuscaloosa University of Alabama Press © 1994 1 Online-Ressource (xxiv, 645 pages) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier History of American science and technology series Includes bibliographical references (p. 583-610) and index Sloss Furnaces and the Rise of the Birmingham District contradicts earlier interpretations of southern industrialization by showing that Birmingham, which became a leading symbol of the New South, was in fact deeply rooted in the antebellum plantation system and its "peculiar institution," slavery. As Lewis demonstrates, southern businessmen pursued their own indigenous model of economic growth and were selective in how they imported capital, machinery, and technical expertise from outside the region. The racial crises that erupted in Birmingham during the 1960s can be traced, in part, to labor-intensive developmental strategies that were present from the birth of a city that might have become a bastion of industrial slavery if the South had won the Civil War Sloss Furnace Company fast Sloss Furnaces National Historic Landmark fast Sloss Furnace Company swd Sloss Furnace Company / History / History Sloss Furnaces National Historic Landmark / History / History Sloss Furnace Company History Sloss Furnaces National Historic Landmark History Sloss Furnace Company (DE-588)4374334-1 gnd rswk-swf BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Corporate & Business History bisacsh BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Infrastructure bisacsh Economic history fast Industries fast Iron founding fast Iron foundries fast Iron industry and trade fast Iron / Metallurgy fast Social history fast Geschichte swd Eisengießerei swd Eisen- und Stahlindustrie swd Geschichte Industrie Sozialgeschichte Wirtschaft Wirtschaft.
