California government

California Government looks at both the institutional and behavioral aspects of the state's political foundations, with a comparative perspective and focus on issues of ethnicity. This fifth edition includes: a section addressing some of the fault lines in California politics; detailed information on the strategic use of the initiative process by Governor Schwarzenegger and "policy entrepreneurs" like Howard Jarvis; an examination of the challenges facing traditional media due to new media, especially the "blogosphere"; and discussions and electoral maps of the 2008 presidential election and statewide ballot initiatives.
