Oklahoma Populism
Author: Worth Robert Miller
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780806120720
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
This is the first full-length study of the People's party in Oklahoma, closely examines the origins, character, accomplishments, and demise of the party that, even more than the Socialist party, constituted a major electoral force in Oklahoma's early history. The author's extensive research provide the basis for lively and detailed accounts of territorial politics and local debates on major national issues of the day. He traces the origins of the Oklahoma People's party to the south-Kansas egalitarian movements of the 1880s and substantiates the Populist's claim that their movement transcended sectionalism (always an important factor in Oklahoma) and posed a major threat to mainstream-party control of the territorial government. -- from Book Jacket

The Political Economy of American Industrialization, 1877–1900
Author: Richard Franklin Bensel
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139936476
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 550
Book Description
In the late nineteenth century, the United States underwent an extremely rapid industrial expansion that moved the nation into the front ranks of the world economy. At the same time, the nation maintained democratic institutions as the primary means of allocating political offices and power. The combination of robust democratic institutions and rapid industrialization is rare and this book explains how development and democracy coexisted in the United States during industrialization. Most literature focuses on either electoral politics or purely economic analyses of industrialization. This book synthesizes politics and economics by stressing the Republican party's role as a developmental agent in national politics, the primacy of the three great developmental policies (the gold standard, the protective tariff, and the national market) in state and local politics, and the impact of uneven regional development on the construction of national political coalitions in Congress and presidential elections.

Revolt of the Tar Heels
Author: James M. Beeby
Publisher: Univ. Press of Mississippi
ISBN: 1604733241
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
During the 1890s, North Carolina witnessed a political revolution as the newly formed Populist Party joined with the Republicans to throw out do-nothing, conservative Democrats. Focusing on political transformation, electoral reform, and new economic policies to aid poor and struggling farmers, the Populists and their coalition partners took power at all levels in the only southern state where Populists gained statewide office. For a brief four years, the Populists and Republicans gave an object lesson in progressive politics in which whites and African Americans worked together for the betterment of the state and the lives of the people. James M. Beeby examines the complex history of the rise and fall of the Populist Party in the late nineteenth century. His book explores the causes behind the political insurgency of small farmers in the state. It offers the first comprehensive and in-depth study of the movement, focusing on local activists as well as state leadership. It also elucidates the relationship between Populists and African Americans, the nature of cooperation between Republicans and Populists, and local dynamics and political campaigning in the Gilded Age. In a last-gasp attempt to return to power, the Democrats focused on the Populists' weak point--race. The book closes with an analysis of the virulent campaign of white supremacy engineered by threatened Democrats and the ultimate downfall of already quarreling Populists and Republicans. With the defeat of the Populist ticket, North Carolina joined other southern states by entering an era of segregation and systematic disfranchisement. James M. Beeby is an assistant professor of history at Indiana University Southeast.
