The changing political landscape of California, 1968 to 2000

Auteur :
HEPPEN, J.

Description :
Article contains an analysis of California's regional voting patterns and of explanatory population characteristics of the county level from 1968 to 2000. California is divided into three regions : Northern, Southern, and Interior, resulting from three different settlement patterns in the 19th and 20th centuries. Validity of regions is tested to determine if new immigration and a general browning of the state have changed the dynamics of the political geography. A. finds state moving toward two political regions : a racially diversified urban coast and a whiter rural interior. - (SLD)
