Select Bibliography -- List of Contributors Summary "To what extent are Canada and Mexico "natural allies" in continental and world affairs? How will this relationship unfold in terms of security issues in the aftermath of the Cold War? These questions were the focus of a workshop held in Mexico City in 1994 from which this book took its themes: historical context, American influence, and potential cooperative security options. A process of redefining "security" concerns in a changing hemisphere is clearly underway, and Natural Allies? examines economic factors, drug trafficking, questions of autonomy and strategic alliance, and defence priorities as intersecting interests in the Canada-Mexico dialogue. This is volume two in Changing Americas, a series published in collaboration with the Canadian Foundation for the Americas (FOCAL)."--Jacket Notes Papers presented at a workshop held in Mexico City, 5-6 May, 1994 Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Includes abstracts in French Print version record Subject National security -- Canada National security -- Mexico Security, International.
