This volume provides a comprehensive analysis of the economic, social, cultural & political dimensions of the evolving trilateral relationship among the three countries of North America. The contributors address such topics as energy, the environment, trade, labour, the maquiladora industrial sector of Mexico, the Mexican auto industry, & Canada-US cultural relations. While other publications have focused on US issues, this one emphasises Canada & Mexico, yet adds significantly to our understanding of the place of the United States in this evolving trilateral relationship.
