Southern California Policy Analysis
While the Rose Institute analyzes state and local government policies throughout California and the nation, it places special emphasis on Southern California.
The Rose Institute conducts fiscal, regulatory, and survey analysis for counties, municipal governments, Native American tribal governments, news organizations, and other businesses across Southern California—from Los Angeles and Orange County to the Inland Empire and San Diego. Through this work, we have developed a sophisticated understanding of this dynamic region’s diverse political and economic institutions.
In a joint venture with the ], the Rose Institute recently launched the ]. The Inland Empire is one of the fastest growing places in the United States and now has a larger population than 24 states. The Center publishes Inland Empire Outlook, an economic and political newsletter, and has created new indices that will become leading measures of the Inland Empire’s economic activity. These indices, along with specialized public policy analysis and modeling, will be published regularly in print and online, and presented at conferences in the Inland Empire hosted jointly with the UCLA Anderson Forecast.

“The horror of Gandhi’s murder lies not in the political motives behind it or in its consequences for Indian policy or for the future of non-violence; the horror lies simply in the fact that any man could look into the face of this extraordinary person and deliberately pull a trigger.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“Whatever else American thinkers do, they psychologize, often brilliantly. The trouble is that psychology only takes us so far. The new interest in families has its merits, but it will have done us all a disservice if it turns us away from public issues to private matters. A vision of things that has no room for the inner life is bankrupt, but a psychology without social analysis or politics is both powerless and very lonely.”
—Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
