In Spring 1983 the Los Angeles Times set out to produce is own
"State of the State" report, five years after the passage of the
notorious and widely imitated Proportion 13. Price Waterhouse and
the Times poll conducted an immense survey of both the public and
private sector. A team of eighteen specialist reports looked into
every area of public service: police and fire protection, roads and
public works, parks, public health, libraries, schools, and more.
The results, published in a nine0part series in June 1983, remain
by far the most up-to-date synthesis of what, for better and worse,
the 1970s tax revolt has achieved. The original Time reports is
here supplemented by an introductory essay placing hte California
revolt in national context, comparing it with later, parallel
actions in other states, notably Massachusetts, and placing all
these actions in illuminating historical perspective. A detailed
statistical abstract completes the volume. This title is part of UC
Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of
California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest
minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist
dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed
scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology.
This title was originally published in 1984.
