Download or read book Black Reconstruction in America The Oxford W E B Du Bois written by W. E. B. Du Bois and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 1134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: W. E. B. Du Bois was a public intellectual, sociologist, and activist on behalf of the African American community. He profoundly shaped black political culture in the United States through his founding role in the NAACP, as well as internationally through the Pan-African movement. Du Bois's sociological and historical research on African-American communities and culture broke ground in many areas, including the history of the post-Civil War Reconstruction period. Du Bois was also a prolific author of novels, autobiographical accounts, innumerable editorials and journalistic pieces, and several works of history. Black Reconstruction in America tells and interprets the story of the twenty years of Reconstruction from the point of view of newly liberated African Americans. Though lambasted by critics at the time of its publication in 1935, Black Reconstruction has only grown in historical and literary importance. In the 1960s it joined the canon of the most influential revisionist historical works. Its greatest achievement is weaving a credible, lyrical historical narrative of the hostile and politically fraught years of 1860-1880 with a powerful critical analysis of the harmful effects of democracy, including Jim Crow laws and other injustices. With a series introduction by editor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and an introduction by David Levering Lewis, this edition is essential for anyone interested in African American history.

Download or read book The Era of Reconstruction written by Kenneth M. Stampp and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1967-10-12 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stampp's classic work offers a revisionist explanation for the radical failure to achieve equality for blacks, and of the effect that Conservative rule had on the subsequent development of the South. Refuting former schools of thought, Stampp challenges the notions that slavery was somehow just a benign aspect of Southern culture, and how the failures during the reconstruction period created a ripple effect that is still seen today. Praise for The Era of Reconstruction: “ . . . This “brief political history of reconstruction” by a well-known Civil War authority is a thoughtful and detailed study of the reconstruction era and the distorted legends still clinging to it.”—Kirkus Reviews “It is to be hoped that this work reaches a large audience, especially among people of influence, and will thus help to dispel some of the myths about Reconstructions that hamper efforts in the civil rights field to this day.”—Albert Castel, Western Michigan University

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems of Reconstruction Another illustration may be taken from our tariff history. After our experience with protec tive tariffs from 1816 to 1833, the trend from the latter date, with the exception of the act of 1842, was towards a lower level of duties. The Civil War legislation changed this course of our history. Higher and higher rates were imposed to protect domestic industries burdened with heavy internal taxes until, in 1865, we had reached a high general level of duties. The war acts were emergency measures. But again, new industrial conditions were created, vested interests appeared, with the result that revision of the tariff proved a most dif ficult matter. Indeed, after several decades, a high tariff came to be regarded as the established policy of the country.

Download or read book North Carolinians in the Era of the Civil War and Reconstruction written by Paul D. Escott and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although North Carolina was a "home front" state rather than a battlefield state for most of the Civil War, it was heavily involved in the Confederate war effort and experienced many conflicts as a result. North Carolinians were divided over the issue of secession, and changes in race and gender relations brought new controversy. Blacks fought for freedom, women sought greater independence, and their aspirations for change stimulated fierce resistance from more privileged groups. Republicans and Democrats fought over power during Reconstruction and for decades thereafter disagreed over the meaning of the war and Reconstruction. With contributions by well-known historians as well as talented younger scholars, this volume offers new insights into all the key issues of the Civil War era that played out in pronounced ways in the Tar Heel State. In nine essays composed specifically for this volume, contributors address themes such as ambivalent whites, freed blacks, the political establishment, racial hopes and fears, postwar ideology, and North Carolina women. These issues of the Civil War and Reconstruction eras were so powerful that they continue to agitate North Carolinians today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on the Civil War and Reconstruction: And Related Topics OF the essays included in this volume all but one - that on The Process of Reconstruction - have been published before during the last eleven years: four in the Political Science Quar lerly, one in the Yale Review, and one in the Papers of the American Historical Association. For the purpose of their present appearance all have been subjected to revision, which has resulted in some cases in considerable modifications. The first five essays are devoted immediately to various phases of the Civil War and Reconstruction. The last two, while not concerned exclusively with those topics, have nevertheless such a relation to the legal and political questions treated as to jus tify their inclusion in the volume.

Download or read book Washington during Civil War and Reconstruction written by Robert Harrison and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-15 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this provocative study, Robert Harrison provides new insight into grassroots reconstruction after the Civil War and into the lives of those most deeply affected, the newly emancipated African Americans. Harrison argues that the District of Columbia, far from being marginal to the Reconstruction story, was central to Republican efforts to reshape civil and political relations, with the capital a testing ground for Congressional policy makers. The study describes the ways in which federal agencies such as the Army and the Freedmen's Bureau attempted to assist Washington's freed population and shows how officials struggled to address the social problems resulting from large-scale African-American migration. It also sheds new light on the political processes that led to the abandonment of Reconstruction and the onset of black disfranchisement.
Download or read book The Literature of Reconstruction written by Brook Thomas and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2017-01-17 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this groundbreaking new study, author Brook Thomas argues that literary analysis can enhance our historical understanding of race and Reconstruction. The standard view that Reconstruction ended with the Compromise of 1877 is a retrospective construction. Works of literature provide the perspective of those who continued to see possibilities for its renewal well past 1877. Historians have long tried to reconcile social history's emphasis on the local with political history's emphasis on the national. Literature creates national political allegories while focusing on events in a particular locale. Moreover, the debate over Reconstruction was a debate about state legitimacy as well as specific laws. It was a question of foundational myths as well as foundational legal principles. Literature's political allegories allow us to recreate those debates rather than view the end of Reconstruction as a foregone conclusion. Because many of the issues raised by Reconstruction remain unresolved, those debates continue into the present. Chapters treat how the racial issues raised by Reconstruction are interwoven with debates over state v. national authority, efforts to combat terrorism (the KKK), the paternalism of welfare, economic expansion, and the question of who should rightly inherit the nation's past. Thomas examines authors who opposed Reconstruction, authors who supported it, and authors who struggled with mixed feelings. This exciting text will set the standard in literary historical studies for decades to come"--
Download or read book Mexico and Its Reconstruction Classic Reprint written by Chester Lloyd Jones and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-14 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexico and Its Reconstruction No state in our day lives unto itself alone. It must be in touch with the outside world and especially with the nations upon which it borders. It is for this reason that the relations of the United States to Mexico have become so important and are sure in the future to be of even greater moment. What affects one cannot fail to affect the other. Already the more obvious of international relationships between the two are em phasized in an unusual degree. American investments in Mex ico far exceed those of any other foreign country. The for eign trade of Mexico with the United States is more important for Mexico than that with all the rest of the world combined, a condition which the developments during the World War have accentuated. The foreign relations of the two countries have an intimate connection - neither can feel itself safe without the friendship of the other. Failure to realize their political unity of interest might endanger the foreign policy which the United States has for a century defended, to assure the free develop ment of all the American republics. N 0 single volume can glve a detailed picture of such complex elements as those cited in the preceding paragraphs. It may, however, help to indicate the various factors that must be taken into consideration by the individual and by the state of which he forms a part in arriving at a judgment of what may fairly be expected of a government working under such conditions as will confront Mexico during its trying period of reconstruction. It is hoped that this book may assist its readers in forming such a judgment and may stimulate them to further study of the problems which it outlines. How important an intelligent understanding of these problems is for both Mexico and the United States is realized by only a small portion of the peoples of the two republics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of Administrative Areas: An Essay in Reconstruction In the winter of 1917 I was invited by the Department of History in Smith College to give three lectures on the State. I there suggested that the possibilities of federalism were not confined to territorial problems and were consequently greater than is commonly supposed. My friend, Professor Fay, thought that the idea was worth some further analysis and the Department of History was good enough to accept it as suitable for publication in the Smith College Studies In History. I should like briefly to say that I have throughout emphasized English experience because I know England best; but the argument is not less applicable, mutatis mutandis to American problems. Its theoretical basis will be found fully discussed in the first chapter of my Authority in the Modern State (Yale University Press, 1918).
