Understanding Mexico’s Security Conundrum: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Understanding Mexico’s Security Conundrum" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Unlike other analyses which aim to explain the notion of national security in Mexico and at the same time address the security challenges facing the country, this short text describes the distinction between national, internal and public security in Mexico. It is the first book to provide detailed analysis on Mexicos security policy and its long-term consequences.

Former Mexican government official Augustin Maciel-Padilla contends that the absence of a clear understanding of the complexities and sophistication of the concept of security has the potential to aggravate security conditions in Mexico. Achieving a proper understanding allows for a better guidance in confronting the grave insecurity facing the country, and for addressing other issues such as human rights, democracy and the countrys international exposure. Maciel-Padilla reasons that Mexico is required to formulate a comprehensive, long-term, security strategy, and with this book he proposes a contribution towards that long-term goal.

Understanding Mexicos Security Conundrum will be essential for scholars, students, and policy makers.

I dedicate this book to the memory of Professor Jose Thiago-Cintra who always encouraged and supported my pursuit of Security Studies.
I would like to recognize the generosity of Rodrigo Bustamante, Marcos Pablo Moloeznik, Erubiel Tirado, Saul Sandoval and Reynaldo Ortega, for criticizing the initial project as well as the manuscript of this book and for asking relevant questions. Thank you all for your time, for your pertinent comments and observations.
I express my deep and sincere gratitude to Juan Alberro who, during our long and inspiring conversations in Madrid in 2019, encouraged me to complete this enterprise. Special mention deserves Marco Mena for his friendship and for his invaluable support that allowed me to participate in a series of academic events in order to discuss sections of my research. My heartfelt appreciation for his never-ending kindness.
My warmest thanks to el Colegio de la Defensa Nacional and the Centro de Estudios Superiores Navales in Mexico City for the opportunity to visit in February 2020, and for their renowned hospitality and enlightening discussions. I also thank the latter for granting me online access to the Biblioteca Naval to collect sources of information for this project. Contact with Secretaria de Marina/Armada de Mexico was facilitated by Captain Alberto Perea Marrufo, Naval Attache to the Mexican Embassy in Belize. I appreciate very much his assistance. I also thank the George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies for allowing me to use its Online Library as Alumni.
I am very thankful to Natalja Mortensen for her faith in me and to Charlie Baker for guiding me through the complex publication process, both at Taylor and Francis Group. Thank you for your trust. Finally, my profound gratitude for the support and love of my family, my parents, Agustin and Elizabeth, my wife Margarita, and my daughters, Astrid and Mirel to whom I promised I will make up for missed opportunities to have fun while I was working on this book.
