Abstract:
Pablo A. Ramirez, “The Woman of Tomorrow: Gertrude Atherton and the Latina Foremother of the Californian New Woman” (pp. 502–534) Throughout the 1890s, Gertrude Atherton employs the figure of the aristocratic Californiana (Mexican Californian woman) to extend classical liberalism’s economic model of individualism to include women. By joining the aristocratic Californiana with American liberalism, Atherton transforms California’s history of capitalist development into a romance in which the creation of new markets generates not only profits, but the New Woman as well. In Atherton’s stories of Alta California, which I call “tales of romantic liberalism,” the history and evolution of California and the New Woman is narrated through the promises (or contracts) that a Californiana character makes and the obligations she accepts or rejects. The Californiana in The Doomswoman (1893) and Before the Gringo Came (1894) becomes the foundation for the New Woman, whose personal development and advancement promises to perfect liberal capitalism through her consensual romantic unions. As the decade drew to a close and the war with Spain became imminent, however, one can see in Atherton’s The Californians (1898) her growing fear that the massification of politics and culture imperiled not only liberal capitalism and democracy, but the evolution of women’s individuality as well. As a result, the evolution of the Californiana character is no longer reliant on a union with a capitalist contractarian partner but on the reaffirmation of her aristocratic individualism. Through her Californiana heroines, Atherton engages the Californio past in order to imagine the evolution of women’s individuality as the United States undergoes a shift from classical liberalism to modern liberalism and from republic to overseas empire.

Full text
Abstract:
The habits of 19th century Californians framed what becoming Californian would mean. Bitterly for Californians today, those habits did not come with a moral compass. The California Dream had been limitless in its promise of health, wealth, and happiness in the sunshine. Today’s Californians dream differently. As California becomes less exceptional, how will we describe California when it’s not exactly “Californian” anymore? The insights of critical regionalism and Foucault’s notion of “a particular, local, regional knowledge” may provide a guide.

An interview with California’s unofficial state historian, exploring Starr’s rationale for his work, along with his understanding of the nature of California values, and what it means to be a Californian. From here to Starr’s recent book, Continental Ambitions, and the many figures and features that have influenced Starr’s understanding of California, this interview moves forward in Starr’s characteristic polymathic style, covering encyclopedic terrain. Additionally, it explores the role that religion and especially Roman Catholicism have played in California’s narrative, and in Starr’s own understanding of California and its place in the world.

Abstract:
Californios, the Spanish-speaking natives and landed gentry of early California, perceived themselves as victims of Anglo-American repression after California's annexation in 1848. In Los Angeles, particularly between 1865 and 1890, the deterioration of the Californio families and their ultimate loss of land and status form a poignant narrative in the social history of the state. The three recognized racial designations that dominated the period were Mexican, Anglo, and Native Indian, but more recent studies reveal that the construction of Los Angeles' cultural and political identity during the 1800s also included other ethnic groups. However, the contributions and impact of prominent French Basques on the growth of Los Angeles are often excluded from the historiography. Remarkably, in the San Fernando Valley, wealthy French Basque rancheros lived as Californios and altered the established Californio profile. Unique among them was Miguel Leonis, a wealthy rancho owner who successfully existed as both a landed Californio and an Anglo encroacher.

Abstract:
This article analyzes the memories of pre-1848 Alta California recounted in the 1870s to Hubert Howe Bancroft’s agent Thomas Savage by a multiethnic group of men and women. The narrators, regardless of ethnic origin, overwhelmingly told stories that insisted on continuity between Alta California in the 1830s and 1840s and the US state birthed in the late 1840s. Even if they had been on opposing sides of political upheavals, they all insisted that their altruistic efforts had helped to transition California peacefully from Mexican rule to home rule and from home rule to US control while preserving both California’s people and California’s culture. This multicultural memory of continuity was later supplanted by rupture-based Anglo Californian creation myths.

Abstract:
Non-Californians rarely refer to the Golden State as a sacred place or religious landscape. Yet, California fascinates, in part, due to its religious extravagance–think Jim Jones, Heavens Gate, the Crystal Cathedral, Harold Camping’s predicted end of the world, the Grateful Dead. Everything is here, and then some. This essay looks at California as an epicenter of religious expression and a global microcosm for hybrid religions, new religions, and experimental religious practices. The essay analyzes migration, the California/Mexico border, genders/sexualities, race/ethnicity, commercialization, embodiment/disembodiment, and the natural world as lenses on California’s religious landscape.

Abstract:
California has made substantial progress since 1991 in reducing its teen birth rate, and its rate reduction now leads the nation. Yet more than 50,000 Californian teens continue to give birth each year, and many more became pregnant. And due to changing demographics and the recent reversal in the last decade’s poverty rate declines, California’s improvements are at risk. The No Time for Complacency (NTFC) initiative is a policy advocacy intervention designed to promote effective statewide teen pregnancy prevention policy and funding in California. This initiative employs legislative-district data analysis to provide a politically compelling organization of teen birth data, cost analyses to heighten the societal relevance of teen births, policy analysis to identify promising and effective state policies, and media advocacy to focus attention on these issues in all regions of the state. The process and results described show how it was possible to achieve impacts on state-level health policy and program funding.

Abstract:
Images of Califia, a fictional queen and the namesake of California, serve as the focus for this inquiry into the influence of pastoral imaginaries on the production of dairy and nondairy milk, especially almond milk. With effectively all US almond production occurring in California, almond milk is a uniquely Californian product. Milk, in both its traditional dairy and newer nondairy varieties, offers a rich aesthetic as well as agricultural history. These pastoral trends emphasize the vision of a tamed, benevolent nature and the faith in technological innovation to resolve agricultural struggles. From the establishment and expansion of dairy farms and almond groves, to recent dairying and drought crises, consumers have associated milk with the bounty of California's land and the skill and dedication of its farmers, a sentiment also apparent in depictions of Califia in California murals and in the packaging of Califia Farms almond milk.

Carter, Karen Faye. "Description and control of flowering in California Poppy (Eschscholzia californica)." Thesis, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, 1986. http://hdl.handle.net/10919/53095.

Full text
Abstract:
The California poppy (Eschscholzia californica Cham.) has floral marketplace potential provided it can be produced as a well-proportioned potted plant. Its attractive floral display and tolerance of extreme heat and drought make it a good candidate for research aimed at introducing it as a new ornamental crop. The major objectives of this study were to document the apical meristem changes of California poppy during the transition to flowering, to determine the minimum number of inductive long-day (LD) cycles required for induction and initiation of flowering, and to examine the effects of exogenously applied gibberellin (GA₄₊₇) and auxin (NAA) on reproductive and vegetative development. Histological examination of apical meristems exposed to varying numbers of LD cycles revealed many changes commonly associated with the onset of flowering. There was an increase in RNA activity in the apical cells, an enhanced doming of the shoot apex, an increased elongation of primordia internodes, a disruption of the tunica-corpus organization, and the appearance of well-developed branch primordia. Eight to ten LD cycles was identified as the critical range required for successful flowering in California poppy plants when exposure to the inductive photoperiod was begun at the 8 to 12 true, expanded leaf stage. Exogeneous NAA was shown to have no significant effect on final reproductive status or vegetative development of California poppy. GA₄₊₇ application resulted in an enhanced shift toward reproductive development and an increase in stem elongation, but it had little effect on peduncle elongation. These results indicate that stem and peduncle elongation may be controlled by different mechanisms and warrant further research. The final chapter of the thesis concerning the design and evaluation of educational programs for the Virginia Tech Horticultural Gardens represents a departure from the major topic of study. This chapter is the result of the author's interest in, and the Garden's need for, an educational program suitable for the general public. This study can be considered the first step in the development of such an educational program.

Full text
Abstract:
The history of California's Basque boardinghouses, or ostatuak, is the subject of this dissertation. To date, scholarly literature on ethnic boardinghouses is minimal and even less has been written on the Basque "hotels" of the American West. As a result, conclusions in this study rely upon interviews, census records, local directories, early maps, and newspapers. The first Basque boardinghouses in the United States appeared in California in the decade following the gold rush and tended to be outposts along travel routes used by Basque miners and sheepmen. As more Basques migrated to the United States, clusters of ostatuak sprang up in communities where Basque colonies had formed, particularly in Los Angeles and San Francisco during the late nineteenth century. In the years between 1890 and 1940, the ostatuak reached their zenith as Basques spread throughout the state and took their boardinghouses with them. This study outlines the earliest appearances of the Basque ostatuak, charts their expansion, and describes their present state of demise. The role of the ostatuak within Basque-American culture and a description of how they operated is another important aspect of this dissertation. Information from interviews supports the claim that the ostatua was the most important social institution among Americanuak during peak years of Basque immigration. Since a majority of the Basque sojourners who arrived before 1930 were unmarried, unable to speak English, and intended to return to the Old World within a decade of their arrival, the Basque-American often substituted his "hotel" contacts for his Old World family. At the ostatuak, he found a familiar language and cuisine, as well as an employment agency, a place to vacation, translating services, an occasional loan, explanations of his host culture, and new friends from old villages. This history of California's ostatuak is the first of its kind and encourages future research on Basque boardinghouses throughout the American West.

Abstract:
Le cas de la Californie met en évidence le caractère impérial de la construction nationale du Mexique et des États-Unis au début du XIXe siècle. Du point de vue du Mexique, l'égalité des Indiens proclamée par l'indépendance s'y avère difficilement réalisable. L'importance des missions conduit le gouvernement à repousser leur fin. Les Indiens ont aussi leurs propres revendications sur leur terre. Les colons et soldats sont d'abord attachés au système tel qu'il est. Mais certains gouverneurs et d'autres agents orientent un certain nombre de jeunes gens vers une carrière publique et la conception de la Californie comme un projet politique fondé sur la souveraineté du peuple et des États. Se forme alors une élite locale prête à se révolter quand elle estime ses droits bafoués. Ces révoltes sont comparables aux révoltes fédéralistes au Mexique mais aussi à celles de colonies de peuplement dans les empires. La culture politique et les liens avec le Mexique évoluent avec l'augmentation des circulations : à l'échelle régionale, le sud se rapproche du Mexique plus que le nord qui connaît une immigration de l'Oregon et des États-Unis. Du point de vue des États-Unis, l'espoir du consul à Monterey d'une demande d'annexion sans guerre est ruiné par l'initiative de migrants des années 1840, nourris des discours sur la « destinée manifeste », de défendre leurs droits à la terre et à une « vraie république » en Californie. Cette confrontation entre colons mexicains-californiens et migrants étatsuniens est celle de deux projets impériaux et nationaux sur un même territoire et illustre l'ambigüité de la revendication de souveraineté, de liberté et d'égalité sur un territoire conquis
The case of California brings to light the imperial character of nation-building in Mexico and the United States in the early 19th century. Concerning Mexico, the equality of Indians proclaimed by Independence proves itself a hard reach. The missions are so important to control the Indians that the government has to delay their end. Moreover, the Indians have their own perception of the meaning of equality and sovereignty on their land. Settlers and soldiers are at first still attached to the colonial System as it is. But Mexican governors and others convince a handful of young people to turn to a public career and the conception of California as a political project. A local elite comes to existence and is ready to revolt when they consider their rights flouted. Those revolts can be compared to other federalist revolts in Mexico as well as with settlers revolt in other settlers colonies. The political culture and the relationship with Mexico also evolves with the increase in circulations from the 1830s. The South becomes more connected to Mexico than the North, that becomes more connected to Oregon and the Western United States. Concerning the United States, the hopes of their consul at Monterey to promote a peaceful annexation is ruined by the attack of a frontier post by recent migrants in order to defend their right ; to the land and to a « true republic ». This confrontation between Mexican-Californians settlers and United States migrants is one of two national and imperial projects on a same territory and illustrates the ambiguity of claiming sovereignty, liberty and equality on a conquered territory

Full text
Abstract:
California has historically been the primary geographic focus of westward migration in the United States. Trends of the 1960 and 1970s indicate that California's role in interstate migration is changing to that of a redistributor of population. In net terms, California is attracting in-migrants from the traditional core region of the Northeast and Midwest, and distributing population throughout the peripheral West. The emergence and development of these trends from 1935 to 1980 are analyzed through the demographic effectiveness of migration, a singly-constrained gravity model, and reverse gravity model mapping of relative interstate distances from California. International and historical interstate migration to California are also reviewed, as well as recent data on interstate migration during the 1980s. The phenomenon of California's redistributive role in interstate migration is discussed in relation to spatial shifts in economic and social functions, the role of search space, and a changing geographic ideal.

In California, third and fourth grade social science curriculum standards mandate an introduction to Native American life and the impacts of Spanish, Mexican, and "American" colonization on the state's indigenous people. Teachers in the state use museums to supplement this education. Natural history and anthropology museums offer programs for teaching third graders about native pre-contact life, while Missions and regional history museums are charged with telling the story of settlement for the state's fourth graders. Clearly, this fact suggests the centrality of museums and Missions to education in the state. Since only one small tribe on the central coast has federal recognition, non-tribal museums are the only public voice about Indian life. These sites however, rarely address hardships experienced by native people, contributions over the past 150 years, the struggles for sovereignty in their homelands, and a variety of other issues faced by living Indian people. Instead, these sites often portray essentialized homogenous notions of Indiamless which inadvertently contribute to the invisibility of coastal Native peoples. This dissertation analyzes visual museum representations in central coast museums and Missions and the perspectives oflocal Native American community members about how their lives and cultures are portrayed in those museums. Using methods of critical discourse analysis, the dissertation seeks to locate discontinuities between the stories museums tell versus the stories Indian people tell. It addresses these ruptures through a detailed analysis of alternative narratives and then offers suggestions to museum professionals, both in California and elsewhere, for incorporating a stronger native voice in interpretive efforts.

This chapter tells the story of how migration and intermarriage changed Baja California's social and racial landscape at the turn of the century. It draws heavily from census records and company reports written by managers and administrators who kept a close eye on the workers' health and productivity and, to a greater extent, their personal lives. The Compagnie du Boleo kept detailed records of European managerial workers who married Mexican women. Baja Californian historian Pablo Martínez published birth, marriage, and census records of different municipalities in Baja California that allowed me to trace marriages and families into the twentieth century.

Abstract:
Big Sur is compelling not only for its exceptional beauty but also for what it reveals about Californians’ relationship to their coastline. Today, California’s coast reflects residents’ dual desire to protect a remarkable environment and a high quality of life. The world-famous coastline is integral to the state’s economy, to residents’ sense of well-being, and to the California Dream. In Big Sur, residents and local officials pioneered creative preservation measures that would later become common throughout the state. Open-space planning, conservation easements, intergovernmental collaboration and citizen activism, land trusts, and transfer development credits all addressed preservation in an age of increasingly high land values, erratic voter support, and unpredictable government funding. The epilogue examines several key people and places that illustrate contemporary economic and social realities along the Big Sur and California coast, including Peter Douglas, the late, influential executive director of the California Coastal Commission; Billy Post, a fourth-generation Big Sur resident who helped design the luxury resort Post Ranch Inn; and the idiosyncrasies of the Big Sur softball league.

Full text
Abstract:
California’s main source of greenhouse gas emissions is transportation, a relatively uncontrolled sector. Of the major energy commodities used by individuals, transport fuels are alone in lack of utility regulation: the dominance of refineries as transportation fuel suppliers suggests there may be an opportunity for California to engage its refining industry about transitioning into a transportation fuel utility role. While this concept could be extended beyond California, it is uniquely suited to California because of the State’s fuel isolation from the rest of the country: with its demand for a boutique low-pollution fuel, California is served almost exclusively by Californian refineries that face a different set of regulations than most other American refineries do. Due to infrastructural barriers and long vehicle lifetime, most forecasts predict slow penetration of alternative transportation technologies, even as policymakers suggest an urgent need for rethinking the transportation system. These infrastructural barriers, including the chicken-and-egg problem of building fuel supply stations and vehicles that use alternative fuels, may be more easily overcome by a single planning body than by a market that only uncertainly rewards first movers. By ensuring supply of fuels the state wishes to promote, California can more easily launch alternative vehicle policies and incentives.

Abstract:
Southern California and Baja California share, besides a dynamic social and economic exchange and 226 kilometers of borderline, an important natural resource: water from the Colorado River. Both areas have arid and semiarid climate in large zones and local fresh water sources are scarce, so water imports from the Colorado are strategic for their continued social and economic growth. Southern California’s water supply comes from the State Water Project, the Colorado River Aqueduct and local sources; in turn, Baja California depends mostly on the water supplied by the Colorado River, with an aqueduct that serves the Pacific coastline cities of the state. Both water supply systems are considered high energy consumers, affecting the quality of life in the region. The sustainable development of both communities is a challenge to Mexican and American public policy planners who must recognize that, to meet the future water demands to support sustainable development in this area it will require improved utilization and management of water resources. In this paper, water supply sustainable indicators were calculated for southern California and Baja California to evaluate and compare their performance towards sustainability. Findings show big differences in the indicators like water use per person, percentage of the cost of water relative to household income, cost of electricity to convey water, etc. High contrast in both economies makes up for these differences, but as water stakeholders of an only source, that is, the Colorado River, Mexico and the United States should avoid those imbalances in water use and management efficiencies, as it might affect its availability and cost, bringing potential conflicts and disturbing the traditional friendly coexistence and growth of both communities.

Abstract:
Metropolitan Water District (Metropolitan) is a public agency charged with providing its service area with adequate and sufficient supplies of high quality water. Metropolitan was incorporated in 1928 by an Act of the California Legislature to serve its 13 original founding Member Agencies. Today, Metropolitan provides water to 26 cities and water agencies serving more than 19 million people in six counties in Southern California. On average Metropolitan delivers 1.7 billion gallons of water per day. California, the third-largest state in the U.S. by land area, has a diverse geography including foggy coastal areas, alpine mountain ranges, hot and arid deserts, and a fertile central valley. California is also the most populous state, exceeding 37 million people in 2010. California’s large population drives the interlinked demands for water and energy in the state. The water-energy nexus in California is highlighted by the fact that two-thirds of the population resides in Southern California while two-thirds of the state’s precipitation occurs in Northern California. Separating Southern California from the rest of the state is a series of east-west trending mountain ranges. Water conveyance projects have been constructed to address this north-south water imbalance and to also import supplies from the Colorado River, hundreds of miles east of Southern California population centers. The movement of water on this scale requires significant energy resources. The California Energy Commission (CEC) estimates that water-related energy use consumes 19% of the state’s electricity and 30% of its natural gas usage every year, and demand is growing. Energy management is a critical concern to Metropolitan and other California water agencies. These issues drive water and energy leaders to jointly manage energy and water use to ensure long-term mutual benefits.
