Few would disagree that the nature of current relations between Mexico and the United States embodies both promising opportunities and reasons for alarm. The contributors to this timely book draw on the strategic-foresight methodology to explore those relations in the context of the two countries’ respective political regimes, their asymmetrical role on the world stage, and the relationships between their societies and economies.

Tony Payan is Françoise and Edward Djerejian Fellow for Mexico Studies and director of the Center for the United States and Mexico (CUSMX) at Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy. Abelardo Rodríguez Sumano is professor of international studies at Universidad Iberoamericana. Richard J. Kilroy, Jr., is a nonresident scholar at CUSMX.
