Developments in Georgia During the Late 20th Century

By Sam Crompton

Since 1970, many significant social, economic, and political developments have helped to shape the modern state of Georgia. The end of the county unit system in 1963 and subsequent reapportionment allowed for a fairer voting process in statewide primary elections. The 1996 Summer Olympics, held in the city of Atlanta, focused a lot of attention on the southern state. Thanks to primary sources, colorful photographs, and manageable text, this book provides students with the information necessary to understand how the state of Georgia has become a center of commerce and diverse communities.
