Download or read book Low Wages and Industrial Development written by Laurie Thomas Vass and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the twentieth century, all governors of North Carolina used a variant of contemporary economic theory to justify the state's economic development policy of industrial recruitment. While every governor expressed optimism that this economic development policy would ultimately lead to success in overcoming the unemployment and poverty in the state, they would also express concern about the persistence of low wages. On the one hand, the governors touted the low wages as evidence of how competitive North Carolina could be as a location for branch manufacturing plants. In the next sentence, they would express optimism that eventually the low wages would give way to higher wages. The same economic theory of comparative advantage used to justify the industrial recruitment strategy, and its policy variant of using industrial recruitment incentives to lure industry to the state, can be turned on its head to explain the persistence of low wages and poverty in North Carolina.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "During the first half of the nineteenth century, western North Carolina leaders fought a sectional political battle against an eastern-led legislature to gain political power and construct the North Carolina Railroad (NCRR) through the Piedmont. Over the course of westerners' push for internal improvements and the successful construction of the NCRR, western leaders grew from a marginal group on the periphery of North Carolina's economy to controlling the future trajectory of the state's economic development. The NCRR Company's directors and contractors employed thousands of hired slaves to construct the railroad from 1851-1856, and hundreds more to maintain and operate trains, tracks, and facilities from 1856 through the end of the Civil War. The economic benefits of the new railroad combined with the opportunity to profit from regular slave hiring, extended the benefits of slavery to all classes of North Carolina's slaveholders, and created jobs and economic opportunities for all white North Carolinians. The enslaved men who were hired out to the NCRR performed all of the hard labor that made the NCRR a reality. Slave hire contracts between masters and the company ripped these men away from their home farms and plantations, and sentenced them to a brutal existence in the NCRR's labor camps--a place void of slave families and communities, and characterized by inadequate food, shelter, clothing, and medical attention."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.
