First sentence: An exploration of a society's politics is, by nature, all-encompassing.
Description: Examines the roots of Mexico's contemporary political culture. Featuring data from two recent major research projects, the book discusses the historical background and evolution of voter behavior responsible for sweeping Mr. Fox into office. It analyzes the important role of Congress and the special relationship between presidents Fox and Bush, and it provides previously unpublished survey research on Mexican beliefs about democracy. Also features new data and tables based on original research that strengthen existing coverage of women, religion, decision-making, political participation, citizen socialization, and electoral politics.
