The Other Mexico: The North American Triangle Completed

by John Warnock

Overview

A harsh program was imposed on Mexicans over the past thirteen years, creating a Mexico characterized by the highest unemployment in its history, a dramatic increase in poverty, and gross inequalities in income and wealth, all the while making illicit drugs an important industry. This book examines these changes and shows how the Mexican people have fought against them in their efforts to create an alternative, more humane society. The book ends with a superb collection of photos.
