The Mexico Reader is a vivid and comprehensive guide to muchos
Mexicos-the many varied histories and cultures of Mexico.
Unparalleled in scope, it covers pre-Columbian times to the
present, from the extraordinary power and influence of the Roman
Catholic Church to Mexico's uneven postrevolutionary modernization,
from chronic economic and political instability to its rich
cultural heritage. Bringing together over eighty selections that
include poetry, folklore, photo essays, songs, political cartoons,
memoirs, journalism, and scholarly writing, this volume highlights
the voices of everyday Mexicans-indigenous peoples, artists,
soldiers, priests, peasants, and workers. It also includes pieces
by politicians and foreign diplomats; by literary giants Octavio
Paz, Gloria Anzaldua, and Carlos Fuentes; and by and about
revolutionary leaders Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata. This
revised and updated edition features new selections that address
twenty-first-century developments, including the rise of
narcopolitics, the economic and personal costs of the United
States' mass deportation programs, the political activism of
indigenous healers and manufacturing workers, and the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic. The Mexico Reader is an essential resource for
travelers, students, and experts alike.
