The southern population, unique in its socioeconomic and cultural characteristics, has always been a topic of major interest with U.S. demographers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The articles in this book, the majority of which were originally presented at the Southern Regional Demographic Group meeting in 1976, deal with fertility, mortality, migration, and the factors that influence these components. A number of the contributors trace patterns of demographic change in the South showing convergence with the rest of the United States. Questions are raised about whether the convergence represents a permanent trend-possibly due to increased communication-or whether further divergence may be expected in the future. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The contributors include Dudley L.
