Description:
The paper examines the limited presence of critical geography in Mexico and analyses why the lack of theoretical discussion means there is a need for theory from abroad. Different stages in the development of our critical practice, our links with planning programmes, and a lack of relations with other Latin American countries are all salient features. ... Read more

Description:
Some researchers believe that voting behavior is spatially clustered and varies across places because of the different local political and economic conditions where voters reside (local contextual effects). Others have also argued that the spread of support for political parties is affected by geographical proximity of one place to another (contagious diffusion). This study tests these two propositions. This study analyzes the results of the 1994 and 2000 federal representative elections in the 89 largest cities in Mexico. Aggregate data about voting behavior were analyzed, using Moran spatial autocorrelation coefficients and a spatial lag regression model with diagnostics for spatial effects. Dependent variables were the percentage of the vote for the Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI), Partido Accion Nacional (PAN), and Partido de la Revolucion Democratica (PRD). To test for local contextual effects, regional dummy variables were used in combination with socioeconomic covariates of voting behavior. To test for contagious diffusion, this study used a temporal-spatial lag. Moran coefficients show a pattern of spatial clustering of votes for the PRI and dispersion for the PAN and the PRD. Results from the regression analysis show evidence of significant local contextual effects operating in several regions of the country. Results also show the temporal-spatial lag variable to be non-significant for all political parties. This finding suggests that the spread of the PAN and the PRD and the retrenchment of the PRI in the period of study were independent of physical proximity to areas of previous electoral support. In summary, the findings in this study suggest (1) the acceptance of the local contextual effects proposition for explaining spatial clustering in voting behavior and (2) the rejection of the contagious diffusion proposition. ...

Excerpt: Geography of Mexico -Beginning approximately 50 kilometers from the United States border, the Sierra Madre Occidental extends 5000 kilometers south to the Río Santiago, where it merges with the Cordillera Neovolcánica range that runs east-west across central Mexico. The Sierra Madre Occidental lies approximately 300 kilometers inland from the west coast of Mexico at its northern end but approaches to within fifty kilometers of the coast near the Cordillera Neovolcánica. The northwest coastal plain is the name given the lowland area between the Sierra Madre Occidental and the Gulf of California. The Sierra Madre Occidental averages 2,250 meters in elevation, with peaks reaching 3,000 meters. Pico de Orizaba is the third highest peak in North America and highest in Mexico. Iztaccíhuatl mountain near Mexico City. Copper Canyon in the state of Chihuahua.The Sierra Madre Oriental starts at the Big Bend region of the border with the U.S. state of Texas and continues 1,350 kilometers until reaching Cofre de Perote, one of the major peaks of the Cordillera Neovolcánica. As is the case with the Sierra Madre Occidental, the Sierra Madre Oriental comes progressively closer to the coastline as it approaches its southern terminus, reaching to within 75 kilometers of the Gulf of Mexico. The northeast coastal plain extends from the eastern slope of the Sierra Madre Oriental to the Gulf of Mexico. The median elevation of the Sierra Madre Oriental is 2,200 meters, with some peaks at 3,000 meters. The Mexican altiplano, stretching from the United States border to the Cordillera Neovolcánica, occupies the vast expanse of land between the eastern and western sierra madres. A low east-west range divides the altip...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=56695 ... Read more

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The geography of Mexico entails the physical and human geography of Mexico, a country situated in the Americas. Mexico is located at about 23° N and 102° W in the southern portion of North America. It is also located in a region known as Middle America. Mexico is bounded to the north by the United States (specifically, from west to east, by California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas), to the west and south by the Pacific Ocean, to the east by the Gulf of Mexico, and to the southeast by Belize, Guatemala, and the Caribbean Sea. The northernmost constituent of Latin America, it is the most populous Spanish-speaking country in the world. Almost all of Mexico is on the North American Plate, with small parts of the Baja California Peninsula in the northwest on the Pacific and Cocos Plates. Some geographers include the portion east of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec including the Yucatan Peninsula within North America. This portion includes the five states of Campeche, Chiapas, Tabasco, Quintana Roo, and Yucatán, representing 12.1% of the country's total area. Alternatively, the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt may be said to delimit the region physiographically on the north ... Read more

Excerpt: The San DiegoTijuana or Tijuana-San Diego, region is the name of a conurbation surrounding the cities of San Diego, California, United States and Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. The region consists of San Diego County in the United States and the municipalities of Tijuana, Playas de Rosarito, and Tecate in Mexico. The total population of the region has been estimated to be just over 5 million in 2009, making it the largest bi-national conurbation shared between the United States and Mexico. Both San Diego and Tijuana are situated along the Pacific Coast and on the border between United States and Mexico. The region lies just south of Orange County, West of Imperial County, and shares borders with Greater Los Angeles. To the East of Tijuana, lies the large city of Mexicali who shares another cross-border conurbation with Imperial Valley Communities. To the South of Tijuana lies the cities of Playas de Rosarito and Ensenada. Ensenada is sometimes considered part of the region. The urbanized area where San Diego and Tijuana meet is called San Ysidro on the American side of the border and Colonia Federal/Colonia Libertad on the Mexican side. Further east, the Mexican delegaciones of Mesa de Otay and Centenario are heavy urbanized whereas the correspond...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=8488842 ... Read more
