Mexico's Left: The Paradox of the PRD


Add your own review!

Overview

Why has Mexico's political left been in such turmoil since the dramatic 2006 election? What explains the contentious relationship between the country's largest left-wing party, the PRD, and its former presidential candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador? Is the PRD in fact a political party, or instead a much looser political movement? Dag Mossige provides an insightful exploration of the inner workings of the PRD and its seemingly unending internal wars.

Reviews

Mexico's Left is a welcome , needed addition to PRD scholarship.... [Mossige sheds] fascinating light on present-day PRD elites' competing visions for the party. An important contribution.... Dag Mossige has conducted exceptionally thorough research on the PRD, and he carefully situates his analysis within the comparative literature. His book illuminates the key dilemmas facing both the left and Mexico's new democracy. A major contribution that helps explain why Mexico is not among the many other Latin American countries with left-leaning leaders.


Author Information

Dag Mossige is based in Norway, where he is conducting research on Latin American political movements.
