Product Description

Thoroughly grounded in Mexican history and based on extensive field research, this introduction examines the roots of Mexico's contemporary political culture and its democratic transformation. Now in its seventh edition, Politics in Mexico: The Path of a New Democracy has been revised and updated in order to address several major changes that have occurred since 2013, including the broad effort of Mexico to achieve a functional democracy; Pe�a Nieto's continued reliance on the armed forces to combat organized crime; an analysis of the 2018 presidential election and what L�pez Obrador's victory means for Mexico; and the country's slow economic growth and the importance of emphasizing poverty as a central policy issue.

Authors Roderic Ai Camp and Shannan L. Mattiace provide an analysis of numerous aspects of Mexican political and economic development, highlighting controversial issues related to electoral democracy, drug-related violence, poverty, human rights, and the country's economic and political relationship with the U.S. Engagingly written by top scholars in the field, Politics in Mexico, Seventh Edition, is essential reading for students of Mexican or Latin American politics, comparative politics, and Mexican history.
