Abstract

Economic and political commentators in the popular media have become fond of describing California as if it were a separate country or a “nation state.” Legally, of course, California is no more a nation than any other state in the United States. Even so, when considering the global economic impact of the “Golden State,” there are several reasons why it is convenient and instructive to look at California as a separate entity.
