More about the book
The book explores the impact of neo-colonialism on Michoacán's biodiversity and resources, focusing on the rise of avocado cultivation and its ties to globalization and capitalism. It examines how Carlos Salinas' "capitalism of friends" has influenced the region, particularly along the avocado corridor between the Sierra Tarasca and Tierra Caliente. Additionally, it addresses the extraction of minerals like copper and the troubling intersection of organized crime with this extractivist model, highlighting the socio-economic challenges facing the area.
