520 _aThe author examines the rapid spread of common interest housing developments (CIDs) throughout much of California in recent years and the potential consequences of that phenomenon for electoral politics. Covering 34 countries, the analysis includes census data, construction industry data, and results from the statewide general election of 1994. The study supports the view that considerations of land economics that affect developers and fiscal constraints that affect local governments are the dominant forces behind the spread of CID housing. The study also suggests that this form of privatization may have underappreciated implications for electoral and interest group politics at the state and local levels. - Reproduced
