  • Historic Centre of Zacatecas
    WORLD HERITAGE LIST Zacatecas No 676 Identification Nomination The historical monuments zone of Zacatecas Location State of Zacatecas State Party Mexico 7 October 1992 Justification by State Party With Guanajuato, Zacatecas is among the most important mining towns of New Spain. It was a major centre of silver production, and also of colonization, evangelization, and cultural expansion (criterion ii). The townscape of the ancient centre is moulded to the topography of the steep valley in which it is situated and is of outstanding beauty (criterion iv). The cathedral, which towers over the heart of this townscape, is exceptional by virtue of its overall harmonious design and the Baroque profusion of its facade, in which Christian and native elements combine (criterion i). History and Description His tory zacatecas was founded in 1546, following the discovery of the very rich San Bernabé silver lode. This was to be followed later by working of the Veta Grande, Panuco, and Albarrada lodes in the same massif. The town developed to the south of the mining area, on the road from the capital of New Spain. It centred on the present-day San Agustin quarter, where the first church was built, with houses along the Calle Real, now Arroyo del Plata, the present main street. Unlike other Spanish colonial towns, the street layout of Zacatecas was irregular, because of the need for communication between the mines and the ore-working sites, which determined the siting in a steep valley. The silver mining activities were so extensive that by 1550 there were 34 mines in operation.

  • Mexico's Ten Most Iconic Endangered Species
    Alejandro Olivera Center for Biological Diversity, April 2018 Executive summary exico is one of the world’s most biologically rich nations, with diverse landscapes that are home to a treasure trove of wildlife, including plant and animal species found nowhere else. Sadly, in Mexico and Maround the world, species are becoming extinct because of human activities at rates never seen before. In this report we highlight the threats facing Mexico’s 10 most iconic endangered species to help illustrate the broader risks confronting the country’s imperiled plants and animals. These 10 species — which in most cases are protected only on paper — were chosen to reflect Mexico’s diversity of wildlife and ecosystems and the wide range of threats to the country’s biodiversity. New awareness of these unique animals and plants is critical to inspiring a nationwide demand to protect these critical components of Mexico’s natural heritage. Although the Mexican government began officially listing and protecting species as extinct, threatened, endangered, and “under special protection” in 1994 — more than 20 years ago — few species have actually recovered, and many critical threats continue unabated. In many cases, officials are failing to enforce crucial laws and regulations that would protect these species. Additionally, the Mexican government has not updated its official list of imperiled species, referred to as NOM059, since 2010, despite new and growing risks from climate change, habitat destruction, the wildlife trade and in some cases direct killing. This failure obscures the true plight of the nation’s endangered wildlife. The following 10 iconic endangered species are not adequately protected by the Mexican government: 1.

This seminar is sponsored by the Latin American and Latino Studies Department of the University of California, Santa Cruz and the Mexico Institute and Division of United States Studies of the Woodrow Wilson Center. With support from the Rockefeller, Inter-American, and Ford Foundations. Washington D.C., November 4th and 5th, 2005. Abstract Mexican migration to the United States has become an increasingly debated topic in the public arena, mainly as a result of its sustained high-density flow and vast distribution nationwide. While this growing population has been negatively portrayed through several political and media campaigns, the grassroots organizations forged by these migrants have received less attention. This report examines the increasing civic and political participation of Mexican migrants organized through hometown associations (HTAs), the most prevalent form of voluntary-sector activity among first-generation Mexican migrants in the United States.

    The History of Jalisco and Zacatecas by John P.

Nueva Galicia’s Indigenous People Established in 1548, the Spanish province of Nueva Galicia embraced 180,000 kilometers and included most of present-day Jalisco, Nayarit, Aguascalientes and Zacatecas. Across this broad range of territory, a wide array of indigenous groups lived during the Sixteenth Century. Domingo Lázaro de Arregui, in his Descripción de la Nueva Galicia - published in 1621 - wrote Map Source: Para Todo México. that 72 languages were spoken in the Spanish colonial province of Nueva Galicia. “Chichimecas” was the collective name for a wide range of indigenous groups living throughout Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, Durango, and most of Jalisco and Guanajuato. It is believed that most of these groups spoke languages that were related to Náhuatl (the language of the Aztecs and Mexica) and part of the Uto- Aztecan Stock. 3 Source: Domingo Lázaro de Arregui, “Descripción de la Nueva Galicia” (Dec. 24, 1621).

  • World Bank Document
    Spatial Dimensions of Trade Liberalization and Economic Convergence: Mexico 1985–2002 Patricio Aroca, Mariano Bosch, and William F. Maloney Public Disclosure Authorized This article employs established techniques from the spatial economics literature to identify regional patterns of income and growth in Mexico and to examine how they have changed over the period spanned by trade liberalization and how they may be linked to the income divergence observed following liberalization. The article first shows that divergence has emerged in the form of several income clusters that only partially correspond to traditional geographic regions. Next, when regions are defined by spatial correlation in incomes, a ‘‘south’’ clearly exists, but the ‘‘north’’ seems to be restricted to the states directly on the U.S. border and there is no ‘‘center’’ region. Overall, the principal dynamic of both the increased spatial dependency and the increased divergence lies not on the border but in the sustained underperformance of the southern states, starting before the North American Free-Trade Agreement, and to a lesser extent in the superior performance of an emerging convergence club in the north-center of the country. Public Disclosure Authorized Over the decades since Mexico’s dramatic unilateral trade liberalization in 1985 and its membership in the North American Free-Trade Agreement (NAFTA), per capita incomes have increasingly diverged across Mexican states. Measures of sigma convergence show a decrease in dispersion from 1970 to 1985 and then a sharp reversion to levels of inequality thereafter. A growing number of studies using traditional beta convergence analysis (Barro and Sala-i-Martin 1995) also find divergence or, at least, a slowdown of convergence (Juan Ramon and Rivera-Batiz 1996; Esquivel 1999; Messmacher 2000; Cermen˜ o 2001; Esquivel and Messmacher 2002; Chiquiar 2005).
