Title: Variables Related to Resistance to Desegregation in the South
Abstract: Several theories of the causes of discrimination and resistance to interracial change are examined. The proportion of nonwhites in the state and the social class composition of non-whites are found to be highly related to desegregation in southern states. The income of whites and indices of urbanization and industrialization show only a moderate relationship to desegregation, and education and occupational status of whites are slightly inversely related to desegregation.
