LESSONS FROM CALIFORNIA'S RECENT EXPERIENCE WITH ITS NON-UNITARY (DIVIDED) EXECUTIVE: OF MAYORS, GOVERNORS, CONTROLLERS, AND ATTORNEYS GENERAL.

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The article discusses the non-unitary political condition of California. Dubious and ultimately harmful claims of power can be generated by dispersal of core executive power. The entirety of executive authority and independence can be undermined by ambitious assertion of plural executive power. The particular offices involved in any clash are the basis of the potential drawbacks of a divided executive.
