Libre comercio, México-E.U.A

"Analyzes the pros and cons of a free trade zone between Mexico, the US, and Canada. Argues that free trade has inspired myths in both US and Mexico of decapitalization, deterioration in the trade terms, dependency, and invasion of labor and merchandise. Demonstrates the falsity of these myths with logical arguments and empirical data. Maintains that a free trade agreement and the free flow of investment is the best way for Mexico to reach higher levels of socioeconomic growth"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
