内容説明

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and anthropological theory, this is a close examination of the responses of a regional society to economic change and political strategies to provide an understanding of the economic, social and political dimensions of the Salinas regime in Mexico. Discussing the links between rural Mexico and the agri-business farms and factories of California, the author underlines the political and social implications of these evolving relationships on both sides of the border. He surveys the local impact of changing agricultural policies, ejido reform and the US Immigration Reform and Control Act, and distinguishes the positions of different social groups, highlighting the larger processes in which the entire region is now caught up.
