The final program in the series of eight, one-hour, live to tape debates produced by ETV for the University of South Carolina’s Institute for Southern Studies (ISS) under a grant provided by Watson-Brown Foundation, Inc. is “What is the South in the 21st Century?” Dr. Walter Edgar, Director of the Institute for Southern Studies at the University of South Carolina, is the moderator for the debate.

Two distinguished scholars will present somewhat different positions on the topic of the South in the 21st century. Defining the South is the key focus of the debate.
