ISBN: 9781617287213 出版年：2010 页码：228 RIchard C Bradley Nova Science

The United States and Mexico have a close and complex bilateral relationship, with extensive economic linkages as neighbors and partners under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Bilateral relations are characterized by strong commercial and cultural ties and cooperation on a range of bilateral and international issues. In recent years, security issues have dominated the bilateral agenda, as the United States has supported Mexican President Felipe Calderon's campaign against drug trafficking organizations (DTOs) and organized crime. This new book is an overview on the background, history, economic trends, and current issues facing Mexico today.
