The last of four programmes by Hugh O'Shaughnessy Mexico in the World
'On the frontier between
Laredo and Nuevo Laredo you find yourself on the border of two worlds.'
The geography of the Americas has put Mexico in an ideal position to influence political events in the region, and to mediate between the USA and the Central American states. Recently, though, Mexico's importance to the whole of the developed world has increased dramatically as a result of its huge debt to foreign banks.
