xiv, 184 pages : 24 cm, \"By sharing one of the longest land boundaries in the world, the United States and Mexico will always have a special relationship. As both countries enter the twenty-first century, they are becoming increasingly more important to one another, with Mexico becoming the second most important trade partner of the United States. The ideal introduction to U.S.-Mexican relations, this book moves from the conflicts all through the nineteenth century up to the current democratic elections in Mexico. Dominguez and Fernandez de Castro deftly trace the path of the relationship between these North American neighbors from bloody conflict to (wary) partnership. By covering immigration, drug trafficking, NAFTA, democracy, environmental problems, and economic instability, The United States and Mexico provides a thorough look back and an informed vision of the future.
