Abstract

It is an honor, but at the same time, a difficulty to follow the distinguished colleagues who have already noted the southern contribution to regional science (Hite 1985), and indeed the entire past, present and future of regional science (Isserman 1993). I will not repeat here the findings of those comprehensive surveys. Both theory (T. Johnson 1991) and the need for empirical research and data (Kort 1995) have received attention. I would like in these few words to provide some thoughts and observations of the South, from the perspective of a typical new Southerner.
