About the Book

Breaking the Cycle of Structural Violence in Northern Mexico: Toward Integral Peace explores how large-scale economic interests and local power dynamics all play a role in creating a climate of violence against women, migrants, and other stigmatized groups in Northern Mexico. By using case studies and interviews, Juan Jaime Loera Gonzalez and Horacio Almanza Alcalde analyze the asbestos industry's role in causing cancer, structural gender violence, the high levels of risk faced by migrants, and how the government fails to address malnutrition among indigenous people. This book investigates conditions and the manifestations of structural violence and illuminates how these issues interconnect and perpetuate systemic injustices. This volume also offers a comprehensive framework for action by proposing strategies to dismantle oppressive structures and foster genuine peace.

Review :
From horror to understanding, from denunciation to proposal, this book allows us to understand the deep currents that explain the daily violence in Northern Mexico... and to glimpse alternatives out of the labyrinth. This book offers a multidimensional perspective from different scales and processes that describes and explains the articulation of structural violence in Northern Mexico, an authentic paradigm of experimentation of contemporary capitalism.
