The correct answer is B. In essence, the "New South" was a call for the post-war South to take on the more industrial aspects that were seen as beneficial for the North.

The original use of the term "New South" was an attempt to describe the rise of a South that, after the Civil War, would no longer depend on the slave labor or cultivation, mainly of cotton, but rather a South that was also industrialized and part of a modern national economy. This concept looked for a greater integration and economic convergence of the region in America.
