The term "New South" pertains to the American South after Reconstruction and is usually concerned with the period from 1876 to the Civil Rights Era. The concept of the New South includes the industralization of the Southern States, for example textile manufacturing, tobacco products, and steel (in the Birmingham AL area), race relations and segregation, and the rise of political power in the South at that time. The Old South (antebellum, or before the war) was replaced by the New South (a mixture of boosterism, industralization, segregation and populism) after Reconstruction.
