When the postwar boom began to dissipate in the 1960s, Mexico's middle classes awoke to an economically terrifying world. And following massacres of students at peaceful protests in 1968 and 1971, one-party control of Mexican politics dissipated as well. The ruling Party of the Institutional Revolution struggled to recover its legitimacy. This title tells the story of this profound change from state-led development to neo-liberalism and from a one-party state to electoral democracy.
