Book Paradise Plundered

Download or read book Paradise Plundered written by Steven P. Erie and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-15 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early 21st century has not been kind to California's reputation for good government. But the Golden State's governance flaws reflect worrisome national trends with origins in the 1970s and 1980s. Growing voter distrust with government, a demand for services but not taxes to pay for them, a sharp decline in enlightened leadership and effective civic watchdogs, and dysfunctional political institutions have all contributed to the current governance malaise. Until recently, San Diego, California—America's 8th largest city—seemed immune to such systematic governance disorders. This sunny beach town entered the 1990s proclaiming to be "America's Finest City," but in a few short years its reputation went from "Futureville" to "Enron-by-the-Sea." In this eye-opening and telling narrative, Steven P. Erie, Vladimir Kogan, and Scott A. MacKenzie mix policy analysis, political theory, and history to explore and explain the unintended but largely predictable failures of governance in San Diego. Using untapped primary sources—interviews with key decision makers and public documents—and benchmarking San Diego with other leading California cities, Paradise Plundered examines critical dimensions of San Diego's governance failure: a multi-billion dollar pension deficit; a chronic budget deficit; inadequate city services and infrastructure; grandiose planning initiatives divorced from dire fiscal realities; an insulated downtown redevelopment program plagued by poorly-crafted public-private partnerships; and, for the metropolitan region, inadequate airport and port facilities, a severe underinvestment in firefighting capacity despite destructive wildfires, and heightened Mexican border security concerns. Far from a sunny story of paradise and prosperity, this account takes stock of an important but understudied city, its failed civic leadership, and poorly performing institutions, policymaking, and planning. Though the extent of these failures may place San Diego in a league of its own, other cities are experiencing similar challenges and political changes. As such, this tale of civic woe offers valuable lessons for urban scholars, practitioners, and general readers concerned about the future of their own cities.

Download or read book The Story of San Diego written by Walter Gifford Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of San Diego That part of the New World which was to become San Diego county, in the State of California, was discovered from the desert side in 1539, by a monk called Father Marcos. This man, who was looking for gold, had journeyed from New Galicia, in Northern Mexico, to the region about the Colorado river in search of the "seven cities of Cibola," known in border fable as the opulent and teeming homes of artisans in precious metal. Arriving at Vacapos, which he described as a "hospitable town," the monk sent his companions to spy out the land. Some of them marched westward to a Sierran range; and when they reached its top they were able to see the ocean. The great waters, they said, were but forty leagues from Vacapos, a place which, from the distance given, must have been within the future limits of San Diego.
