The Uses and Misuses of Appalachian Culture
The facile use of “Appalachian culture” in much thinking and writing does no service to the region or its people. This article offers a critique of static conceptions of Appalachian culture and argues for a more dynamic and flexible approach. After examining its own suppositions, this essay concludes that, in lieu of frequent allusions to “Appalachian culture,” more attention should be paid to the multiple heritages Appalachians enjoy and the con…

Recent Trends in Appalachian Migration, 2005-2009
This study briefly reviews the major findings of Appalachian migration research during the twentieth century before turning to an analysis of 2005-2009 American Community Survey data on migration as it affects Appalachia. The questions guiding the analysis are: Is large-scale migration still affecting the region? What is the magnitude of the migration flows within as well as into and out of the region? What is the magnitude of in- and outmigratio…

Too Few Tomorrows
Between the 1940s and 1970s, approxiately three million people left the Appalachian mountains in search of jobs in Midwest urban areas, such as Cincinnati, Chicago, and Detroit. Unfortunately, about a third of these people were forced into a life of long-term underclass dwellers. Struggling with questions of identity, rootlessness, and cultural negation, these people were given the name of “urban Appalachians.” Published in 1987, Too Few Tomorrow…
