U.S.-Mexico Relations in Uncertain Times

Dr. David Shirk will present ?US-Mexico Relations in Uncertain Times.? Few countries send us more goods, capital, or people than Mexico, and perhaps no other country in the world is as intimately tied to the United States as Mexico. Roughly 80% of Mexico?s exports go to the United States, 40% of the contents of U.S. imports from Mexico were made in the United States, and Mexico buys more U.S. goods than any country except Canada. Yet, Mexico is also a favorite punching bag in U.S. politics, as made evident in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. With recent criminal violence and economic turmoil in Mexico, the growing discord in U.S.-Mexico relations could not come at a worse time. This talk will examine the state and future prospects of U.S.-Mexico relations in these uncertain times. Member reservations for a round table lunch following the presentation may be made by contacting the sponsor, Phyllis
