Description
This text presents a variety of opinions on regionalism, its history and its future. While the essays do not comprise a debate, pro and con, about regionalism, they do provide a wide array of perspectives. Some make a close study of how regionalism works in various states such as Minnesota, Oregon and California. Others give a historical account of a particular region, like that surrounding New York City, with a final group pointing out aspects of regionalism - race especially - that shouldn't be ignored.
