This Essay addresses how religion simultaneously subordinates Latinas while serving as a source of strength. More specifically, it focuses on Catholicism and how the same church and religion have a fragmented and varied impact on Latinas, particularly Mexican-Americans, with whom I am most familiar

LEGACIES AND PUBLIC POLICY
INTRODUCTION
MARSHA A. CHANDLER*
The publication of this special edition of the California Western Law
Review is an important milestone, not only for the school itself, but for the
entire community. By bringing together legal scholars, researchers from sev-
eral universities, medical professionals and other local practitioners, this
work breaks new ground in San Diego's development.
Until now, the area's unique economic, cultural and environmental ele-
ments were typically absent from academic literature. Moreover, there was
limited evidence of the institutions of higher education and the community
operating effectively together. The publication of this collection is an impor-
tant beginning. The Law Review special edition, focusing on public policy
and community in San Diego, was conceived by Ellen Dannin, Professor of
Law at California Western School of Law, and has been guest-edited by Mi-
chael Schudson, Professor of Communication at University of California,
San Diego. The authors who have contributed to the issue are affiliated with
a variety of academic institutions in San Diego and Los Angeles. Each arti-
cle considers a topic critical to San Diego's current phase of development,
providing a scholarly analysis from a truly a regional perspective.
The timing of this volume is of paramount importance, for this is a pe-
riod of extraordinary change. The urbanization of the region is progressing at
a rapid pace, growing not only in the density of its population, but in its role
within an increasingly technological and global economy, based less and less
on the military infrastructure around which San Diego was built. Ours is also
a region that is vastly multi-cultural, a trend that is now reaching many lo-
cales, but is much further along here. This multiculturalism, certainly a re-

gional asset, at the same time raises new issues about education, legal juris-
diction, and equality that have not formerly been addressed. The many in-
sights in this volume contribute to an important civic conversation as San
Diego forges its future under new, and ever-changing, circumstances. San
Diego's scholarly investigation of concerns related to economic develop-
ment and planning, international borders, balancing environmental protec-
tion with urban development, the commingling of cultural and governmental
mores, protecting the health of a growing population, and the new rules -of a
high-tech, global economy will also be of benefit to many other regions fac-
ing similar circumstances.
As the Chief Academic Officer at UCSD, I am gratified that our faculty
and graduate students were an integral part of a team addressing these
important issues. Instead of each institution and local entity trying to solve
the same issues independently, this collaborative approach will no doubt
prove more fruitful. I commend the vision of California Western School of
Law and all those who helped to bring this project to fruition, and
congratulate them on pioneering this important dialogue.
MICHAEL SCHUDSON*"
The UCSD catalog features a course on "The History of Los Angeles,"
but there is no course on the history of San Diego. Nothing is listed on the
politics or economics or sociology of San Diego, for that matter. The univer-
sity is located in San Diego and most of its faculty live in San Diego, but for
most of us who teach and do research at UCSD and at many of the other in-
stitutions of higher education here, San Diego is not a place we study. It is
not a place we give much of our professional attention, even those among us
who are active citizens in our communities.
This is beginning to change, and this special issue is a sign of change.
Awareness is growing of San Diego's recent and rapid emergence as a major
American city. There is a growing consciousness, and even some civic pride,
in the region's uniquely twenty-first century profile-a city, county, and re-
gion at an international border, looking south to Mexico and west to Asia,
endowed with an expanding corps of powerhouse businesses in computer,
information, and biotech industries. Even our social problems, although
nothing to be proud of, have a cutting-edge quality to them-urban sprawl;
the battle between development and environment in an environment of ex-
traordinarily precious, and precarious, natural features; a growing divide be-
tween those who have profited from the past decade's economic growth and
those who have not; the cultural and political challenge of forging common
bonds and some sense of shared identity while honoring the multifarious
identities of newcomers from increasingly diverse backgrounds. Now schol-

INTRODUCTION
ars are beginning to recognize that some of the national and global problems
they have long pondered have local manifestations that are of great interest
and that offer great opportunities for study.
This is the broad context in which this special issue Was conceived. The
narrower context is, as is the case with most projects that actually get off the
ground, more personal and more happenstance. Two years ago Ellen Dannin,
Professor of Law at California Western School of Law, got together with Pe-
ter Zscheische from the San Diego-Imperial Counties Labor Council (AFL-
CIO) to discuss how to start up a conversation between local union officials
and academics who study aspects of labor and the labor movement. Could a
dialogue begin that would enrich both the work of the scholars and the per-
spectives of the labor activists?
The San Diego Labor and Academic Network emerged out of their ef-
fort. It is both an e-mail "listserv" and a face-to-face meeting of interested
persons that has gathered at the Labor Council offices in City Heights every
other month for the past two years. I began attending the meetings when I
became co-director of the UCSD Civic Collaborative. This effort, begun in
1998 with a grant from the Pew Charitable Trusts, seeks to create new links
and new conversations between UCSD's faculty and the broader San Diego
community. The Labor Academic Network seemed exactly the sort of bridg-
ing institution to encourage and support-and one where a number of my
colleagues at UCSD were already involved.
Once we had come to know each other at the meetings, Ellen Dannin
suggested to me that the UCSD Civic Collaborative's efforts to stimulate
new knowledge and new research about San Diego might be encouraged if
we could hold out to likely partners the prospect of early publication of their
work. Ellen had previously had a very successful collaboration with the Cali-
fornia Western Law Review on a special issue (on New Zealand labor law,
one of her own research specialties) and she volunteered to inquire if the
Law Review would be interested to produce a special issue on public policy
and law in San Diego.
Editor Natalie Vance was most encouraging and with the support of her
fellow student editors, the project went forward. Ellen Dannin took the lead
in recruiting authors, I took responsibility for editorial supervision, and the
Law Review editors took on the arduous task of copy-editing and bringing
articles to law review style and citation form.
I think the result is a significant publication, a genuine collaboration
across research institutions in San Diego, a collaboration made possible by
new attempts at the Labor Council, at California Western, and at UCSD to
not only think "out of the box," as people say, but to make new personal ties,
and develop them and trust in them, out of the institutional boxes in which
we grow all too comfortable.
It is possible to live in San Diego for years or for a lifetime as an out-
sider to it. In fact, it is easier to do this than it is to reach out across the miil-

tiple divides that routinely separate us. This is only a small step toward that
extension, but it is a step in the right direction.
NATALIE VANCE-
As the Executive Editor of the Law Review, it has been my pleasure to
work with everyone involved in this collaborative effort. The idea to merge
academic disciplines to create a unique portrait of law and public policy in
the San Diego area came to us from Professor Ellen Dannin, an employment
law and civil procedure professor at California Western and Professor Mi-
chael Schudson, professor of communications at the University of Califor-
nia, San Diego. Together, they helped the Law Review approach authors
and solicit articles for this unique collection of research and works concern-
ing law and public policy issues in one of the fast growing cities in the coun-
try.
Michael Schudson then graciously volunteered to guest edit the issue,
going over each article and making revisions before the Law Review ever
saw them. Law Review took up the task of making sure the articles con-
formed to the proper format for publication in a law review, keeping in mind
that most of the authors had never written for a legal journal.'
The finished project is both exciting and informative, providing an
eclectic collection of work by scholars in a variety of disciplines. The issue
underscores the importance of the social sciences, communication and the
academic contributions of individuals, who have never ventured near a law
school, to the legal community.
Several articles have already created a buzz. We have already received
a response to Erie's controversial piece on the Metropolitan Water District.
It will be published along with a reply from Professor Erie in the Fall 2000
issue of the Law Review.
The Law Review would like to thank Professor Schudson, Professor
Dannin and all of the authors who contributed to this collaborative effort. In
addition, I would like to personally thank Susan Maga, Executive Lead Arti-
cles Editor, who worked tirelessly while working full time and studying for
the bar in Arizona, Kim Phillips, Lead Articles Editor, who helped get things
rolling while we were still working on the Fall issue of Law Review, Brad
Hasler, Lead Articles Editor, who stepped up to the plate and kept our head
above water whenever it looked like we were not going to make it, and Dean
Moody, Editor in Chief, who helped bring everything together. Finally, all of
our efforts are overshadowed by the work of Lana Linderman, our anchor of
support and the person who makes it all come together. Thank you.
