  • Mexican Lives by Judith Adler Hellman

    1248 Words  | 3 Pages

    Mexican Lives is a rare piece of literature that accounts for the human struggle of an underdeveloped nation, which is kept impoverished in order to create wealth for that of another nation, the United States. The reader is shown that the act of globalization and inclusion in the world’s economies, more directly the United States, is not always beneficial to all parties involved. The data and interviews, which Hellman has put forth for her readers, contain some aspect of negativity that has impacted their lives by their nation’s choice to intertwine their economy with that of the United States. Therefore it can only be concluded that the entering into world markets, that of Mexico into the United States, does not always bring on positive outcomes. Thus, one sees that Mexico has become this wasteland of economic excrement; as a result it has become inherently reliant on the United States.

    When we hear discussions or read articles about drug wars, killings, and illegal immigration into the United States, many of us immediately think of Mexico. As a nation, Mexico is a much greater country than these commonly referred to issues. Mexico is a country with a broad history, deep family culture, and an economy fueled by oil and tourism. The United States Department of State (USDS) offers a broad range of information on countries outside the US, including Mexico. I found a wealth of information about Mexico through the USDS Background Note provided on their website located at www.state.gov. I will outline for you the key information found in this report, and others, related to the Mexican economy, culture, and more.

  • Relations between Mexico and The United States

    1554 Words  | 4 Pages

    Mexico is one of the most populated and industrialized of the third world nations, yet it remains very impoverished in comparison to it’s northern neighbor. Recently Mexico has been the third largest trading partner of the United States, has become an important exporter of petroleum and plays a pivotal role in the politics of the region. Yet Mexico is frequently treated with neglect and misunderstanding by the United States. This treatment is why Mexico is hesitant about United States influence and investment in Mexico. While many foreign countries acknowledge the United States as a protectorate and a blessing, Mexico sees the United States as a problematic source. The idea of the United States overshadowing Mexico was best stated in Pofirio Diaz’s famous quote. From the Pofiriato up until today Mexico is still in the shadows of the United States; but with the creation of NAFTA the intentional distance between the United States and Mexico has begun to close.

  • Texas Poverty In Texas

    1001 Words  | 3 Pages

    An important factor that is often overlooked, is the broad border Texas shares with Mexico. Many people with low income are living in areas with poor living conditions, called colonias, near the border. Colonias, or colonies, consist of poorly constructed houses made for people who make 10,000 a year or less. However, these areas lack electricity and water supply; many of the families living have to find their own water throughout the day. The main concern for the people living in these areas are the living conditions: they have limited water supply.. Meaning they are limited to bathing, cooking and drinking water. If we consider the colonias along the Texas and Mexico border, we realize that the population is almost entirely composed of Hispanics living under poor conditions, thus increasing the poverty rate on Hispanics, furthermore increasing the aggregate poverty rates in

    Mexico is a leading consumer of bottled beverages and pre-packaged snacks. According to PepsiCo, even if the per capita consumption rate of salty snacks for Brazil, India or China is doubled, their consumption levels will be much below those of Mexico (Forbes, 2014). Mexico is still a developing nation but it has a growing middle class. Middle class equals more disposable income which has led PepsiCo to further invest and expand business in Mexico (Forbes, 2014).
