¿Qué bolá?
Author: Alberto Ajón León
Publisher: RUTH
ISBN: 9591019815
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
Esta última nos propone, desde su título, el desafío de una mirada introspectiva. Más que un reparto de trabajadores habaneros, Alamar es, en esta novela, una alegoría cubana con la cual el autor persevera en su estilo aglutinador de la realidad, procurando mostrárnosla en su compleja amalgama y con un lenguaje polifónico en que la diversidad cultural de nuestro pueblo se revela en su consistente unidad. Sin ser arquetípicos ni caricaturescos, los personajes ilustran con sus nombres, apariencias y conductas, algunos aspectos de la variopinta sociedad de la isla, de tal forma que en ellos es posible que identifiquemos a algunos vecinos y nos reconozcamos nosotros mismos.

Drug War Mexico
Author: Peter Watt
Publisher: Zed Books Ltd.
ISBN: 184813889X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 343
Book Description
Mexico is a country in crisis. Capitalizing on weakened public institutions, widespread unemployment, a state of lawlessness and the strengthening of links between Mexican and Colombian drug cartels, narcotrafficking in the country has flourished during the post-1982 neoliberal era. In fact, it has become one of Mexico's biggest source of revenue, as well as its most violent, with over 12,000 drug-related executions in 2011 alone. In response, Mexican president Felipe Calderón, armed with millions of dollars in US military aid, has launched a crackdown, ostensibly to combat organised crime. Despite this, human rights violations have increased, as has the murder rate, making Ciudad Juárez on the northern border the most dangerous city on the planet. Meanwhile, the supply of cocaine, heroin, marijuana and methamphetamine has continued to grow. In this insightful and controversial book, Watt and Zepeda throw new light on the situation, contending that the 'war on drugs' in Mexico is in fact the pretext for a US-backed strategy to bolster unpopular neoliberal policies, a weak yet authoritarian government and a radically unfair status quo.

Corruption & Politics in Contemporary Mexico
Author: Stephen D. Morris
Publisher: University of Alabama Press
ISBN: 9780817305253
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
This book addresses the causes, effects, and dynamics of political corruption in Mexico. Systematic analysis of corruption is critical to a better understanding of the politics of Mexico, and despite the many conceptual and methodological obstacles, the importance of the subject matter demands treatment. Morris's work should therefore be seen not as definitive, but as an initial step in understanding a central dimension of Mexican politics. Corruption, as a topic of research, invites certain misunderstandings, as it is a broad concept conveying a variety of moral connotations. This inquiry into political corruption is not intended to depict the Mexican people or society as any less or more moral than others. The study draws on extensive content analysis of news reports from the Mexican press, a public opinion poll conducted in 1986, and personal interviews. The objective is not to expose scandals and wrongdoing by Mexican officials, name names, or point fingers; it is an academic endeavor. The author discusses scandals and gives examples of corruption for illustrative purposes, but his analysis is more theoretical than anecdotal. He questions whether in fact corruption has enhanced or diminished the stability of the Mexican government, and examines the reasons for the failure of many anti-corruption efforts.
