Mexico: Political, Social and Economic Evolution provides a compelling overview of the profound changes that have taken place within Mexico over the past twenty-five years. Offering a multifaceted take on the evolution of contemporary Mexico, the text analyzes the relationship between Mexico's past and present; the connections between its economic, political and social trajectories; and the interaction between domestic and international forces. Unlike most texts on Mexican politics and history, this volume also discusses the emergence of civic organizations, social groups and protest movements; the process of Mexico-U. S. migration and its implications for contemporary Mexico; and U. S.-Mexico relations.

FEATURES

* Opens with a broad historical overview of Mexico and closes with a discussion of the challenges facing Mexico today
* Examines different social and institutional actors--policy makers, business groups, social organizations, grassroots movements, guerrilla organizations, workers, indigenous groups, transnational corporations and migrants--how they interact with one another and how they have directly or indirectly influenced changes in Mexico
* Draws material from a rich variety of sources, including extensive research in Mexico and interviews with Mexican and U. S. scholars
* Incorporates diverse theoretical perspectives in its discussion of many issues (democracy and democratic transition, modernization and development, social movements, civil society and international migration)
