Mexico Government

Conducted under the umbrella of Project Gunrunner, intended to stem the flow of firearms to Mexico, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) ran a series of “gun walking” sting operations, including Operations Wide Receiver and Operation Fast & Furious. The government allowed licensed gun dealers to sell weapons to illegal straw buyers so that they could continue to track the firearms as they were transferred to higher-level traffickers and key figures in Mexican cartels.

Peter Dale Scott has written extensively on the Kennedy assassination and other dark corners of the American political scene. His encyclopedic knowledge enables him to connect the dots among the players, the organizations, and the unacknowledged collusions--the deep politics-- of our often troubled political system. Deep Politics on Oswald, Mexico, and Cuba, originally published in 1995, narrows the focus of Scott's earlier Deep Politics and the Death of JFK.

The term Mexican Drug War misleads. It implies that the ongoing bloodbath, which has now killed well over 100,000 people, is an internal Mexican affair. But this diverts attention from the US role in creating and sustaining the carnage. It's not just that Americans buy drugs from and sell weapons to Mexico's murderous cartels. It's that ever since the US prohibited the use and sale of drugs in the early 1900s, it has pressured Mexico into acting as its border enforcer - with increasingly deadly consequences.

As late as the 1960s, tacos were virtually unknown outside Mexico and the American Southwest. Within fifty years the United States had shipped taco shells everywhere from Alaska to Australia, Morocco to Mongolia. But how did this tasty hand-held food - and Mexican food more broadly - become so ubiquitous? In Planet Taco, Jeffrey Pilcher traces the historical origins and evolution of Mexico's national cuisine, explores its incarnation as a Mexican American fast-food, shows how surfers became global pioneers of Mexican food, and how Corona beer conquered the world.

"¿A dónde llevará al país y a millones de mexicanos el Gobierno de Andrés Manuel López Obrador? ¿Sobrevivirá México a la destrucción en marcha?".

La otra historia de México: Hidalgo e Iturbide, es la otra historia de México, donde sus héroes y heroínas no son de bronce o mármol, sino hombres y mujeres sujetos a la grandeza y las miserias de la condición humana. Es aquella que nos permite replantearnos quien es el verdadero Padre de la Patria y cuestionar el papel de los llamados villanos y traidores que señalan los libros de texto.

Combining on-the-ground reporting and in-depth discussions with people on the frontlines of Mexico's drug war, To Die in Mexico tells behind-the-scenes stories that address the causes and consequences of Mexico's multibillion dollar drug trafficking business. John Gibler looks beyond the myths that pervade government and media portrayals of the unprecedented wave of violence now pushing Mexico to the breaking point.

El combate al narcotráfico en México desde el punto de vista de los agentes de la Agencia Antidrogas de Estados Unidos, con los testimonios de varios de ellos que han trabajado en nuestro país en diversos momentos. Hasta hoy no se había escrito una investigación como ésta. Se sospechaba que la DEA operaba en el territorio nacional con entera libertad, pero se carecía de evidencias como las que aquí presenta J. Jesús Esquivel.

En marzo de 2020, convocados por el jefe del sindicato de los patrones de México, los dirigentes del Partido de Acción Nacional, Revolucionario Institucional y de la Revolución Democrática se reunieron en la mansión de un multimillonario para articular una estrategia que les permitiera recuperar el poder. Dos años antes, la alianza encabezada por Andrés Manuel López Obrador y Morena les había arrebatado la presidencia.

Un fantasma recorre México: el fantasma del neoliberalismo. Todas las fuerzas del actual gobierno han lanzado una cruzada contra ese fantasma: lo ven en las pasadas administraciones - panistas y priistas - en los medios de comunicación y las ong, en los científicos y la iniciativa privada.

When thinking about the border separating the United States from Mexico, what typically comes to mind is an unwelcoming zone with violent, poverty-ridden towns, cities, and maquiladoras on one side and an increasingly militarized network of barriers and surveillance systems on the other. It was not always this way. In fact, from the end of Mexican-American War until the late twentieth century, the border was a very porous and loosely regulated region.

1963, Mexico, Maine. The Wood family is much like its close, Catholic, immigrant neighbors, all dependent on a father's wages from the Oxford Paper Company. Until the sudden death of Dad, when Mum and the four closely connected Wood girls are set adrift. Funny and to-the-bone moving, When We Were the Kennedys is the story of how this family saves itself, at first by depending on Father Bob, Mum's youngest brother, a charismatic Catholic priest who feels his new responsibilities deeply.

El libro "Del arte de la guerra", de Maquiavelo en torno a 1520, desarrolla, siguiendo el típico esquema formal del tratado renacentista dialogado, las reflexiones del gran autor florentino sobre la milicia y la guerra.
