Examines the relocation of the New England textile industry to the piedmont South between 1880 and 1959, through the example of the Massachusetts-based Dwight Manufacturing Company. Provides an informative historic reference point to current debates about the continuous relocation of capital to low-wage, largely unregulated labor markets worldwide.
