Acknowledgments

This book is the result of many years of individual and collaborative work. As all long-term projects, we would not have been able to complete it without the commitment of all the book contributors, and to the financial support of the Research Department at Universidad Iberoamericana Puebla. Any errors, opinions, or conclusions are ours and do not reflect the views or positions of our institutions.

We have received great help from our colleagues and students, through fruitful discussions and feedback after reading our earlier drafts of the chapters at Universidad Iberoamericana Puebla (IBERO Puebla), Universidad Popular Autnoma del Estado de Puebla (UPAEP), Benemrita Universiadad Autnoma de Puebla (BUAP), and Instituto Tecnolgico de Estudios Superiores de Occidente (ITESO), where all of us contributors to this book work. Our sincere appreciation to Tamara Prez Garca for her many hours of research assistance in preparing the figures, tables, maps, and text in this book. We would also like to thank two anonymous reviewers that gave us very useful advice at the early stages of this book, and our editors for all the very constructive and useful comments and their patience.

Finally, we want to offer our deepest thanks to our friends and families for their support and understanding during this long process.

Introduction

Mara Eugenia Ibarrarn and Jos Luis Garca-Aguilar

We write this introduction during the great COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. At the moment of this human tragedy, the number of infected people around the world is 30 million and deaths have reached 1 million. In Latin America, the number is about 7 million cases and 400,000 deaths. About half a million deaths are estimated for the region in December 2020. Despite holding 8% of the world population, according to the Observatory for the Containment of COVID-19 in the Americas (at the University of Miami), Latin America accounts for 50% of registered deaths worldwide since June, Brazil reporting 22% of such deaths and Mexico 12%.
