Description: "Close, careful study of the health conditions Guatemalan refugees first faced in  Chiapas and in the Yucatán, after fleeing 'the first emergency': poverty and repression. Later emergencies arose from refugees seeking asylum and then from being transferred to Campeche and Quintana Roo. Those events at times complicate their core problems, including very high (if later falling) rates of illness and death"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
