Mexico's Unscrupulous Corruption

To read Mexico’s papers recently has been a study in corruption. The exposés involve every political party and level of government. Governors — including those from the states of Tabasco, Coahuila, Aguascalientes, Tamaulipas, Baja California Sur, Chiapas, and Quintana Roo — have been some of the most covered offenders, with allegations involving missing public funds (reaching the hundreds of millions of dollars), collaboration with drug traffickers, murder, and money laundering. Public figures once considered untouchable, such as the former head of Mexico’s Teachers Union, Elba Esther Gordillo, were publicly pilloried (as well as arrested). This book will provide the core structures, details and findings on the corruption in Mexico.
