Abstract:

Mexico today faces a growing political and economic crisis. Because of its proximity to the U.S., and because of its strategic, economic and political importance, domestic developments in Mexico must be of interest to the U.S. While the U.S. should not directly interfere in Mexico's internal affairs, it does have a role to play in encouraging a politically stable and economically developing Mexico.
