Lewis Center sponsors a special lecture by Andreas Kluth of The Economist, Tuesday, April 26, 2011, “The People’s Will: Reforming the Way We Govern California”

 

California is an experiment in extreme democracy
gone wrong, says Andreas Kluth, West Coast Correspondent for The Economist. But
reform could make it a model for others. Please join us for an evening
discussion with Andreas Kluth and other experts on California’s fiscal and
governance crisis.  Hear about the reform
proposals needed to bring our Golden State back on track as a model of
democracy for the nation and the world.
The evening’s talks will feature the upcoming release of a special issue
on California, and will foster an engaging and thought-provoking discussion on
the future of California.

Roundtable discussants will include Robert Hertzberg, Co-chair, California
Forward; Daniel J.B. Mitchell, UCLA Professor Emeritus; and Carol Whiteside, Partner, California Strategies
LLC.

The event is free and open to the public, but
reservations are required. The event is presented by the UCLA Luskin School of
Public Affairs, UCLA Lewis Center, UCLA Anderson Alumni Network, and The Economist.
