Mexican public intellectuals

"In Mexico, the participation of intellectuals in public life has always been extraordinary, and for many the price can be high. However, there has yet to be a book that focuses these influential individuals with the goal of outlining their roles in present-day Mexico. Highlighting prominent figures that have made incursions into issues such as elections, human rights, foreign policy, and the drug war, Mexican Public Intellectuals paints a picture of the ever-changing context of Mexican intellectualism"--Provided by publisher.
