The Logic of NIMBYism: Class, Race, and Stigma in the Making of California’s Legal Cannabis Market

This article explores how not-in-my-backyard (NIMBY) sentiments affect the implementation of new cannabis laws in California cities. Despite increasing legality and growing social tolerance, the actual status of cannabis remains controversial. Large segments of the population and local authorities remain uncomfortable with the use of cannabis and resist allowing cannabis facilities in their communities. I employ statistical analysis to understand why some jurisdictions move toward more permissive cannabis policies and others do not. The results show that, on average, socially and economically prosperous cities express higher support for cannabis legalization, but cannabis businesses are more likely to receive permits in cities that are socially and economically distressed. The disparity between demand (white middle-class communities) and supply (poor Hispanic communities) demonstrates that stereotypes generated by the war on drugs have not disappeared after the passage of new cannabis laws and continue to perpetuate the marginalization of disadvantaged individuals and places.

邻避主义的逻辑:加州合法大麻市场形成过程中的阶级、种族和耻辱

本文探讨了不在我家后院 (NIMBY) 的情绪如何影响加州城市新大麻法的实施。尽管合法性和社会容忍度不断提高,但大麻的实际地位仍然存在争议。很大一部分人和地方当局仍然对使用大麻感到不安,并拒绝在他们的社区中使用大麻设施。我使用统计分析来理解为什么一些司法管辖区会转向更宽松的大麻政策,而其他司法管辖区则不会。结果表明,平均而言,社会和经济繁荣的城市对大麻合法化表示更高的支持,但大麻企业更有可能在社会和经济困难的城市获得许可。
