Amexica: War Along the Borderline

Between the interiors of the USA and Mexico lies a borderland: Amexica. A terrain astride the world`s busiest frontier, teeming with migrants, factory workers, narcos, tourists, heroines and heroes, ranchers and rogues. A border both porous and harsh, criss-crossed by a million people every day. A warzone, where a grotesque pastiche of the globalised economy plays out in a tragedy of unfathomable violence as drug cartels and state forces face off. Amexica is a journey through the cartels` reach into the borderland`s daily life: through migrant camps, drug-smuggling `plazas`, rehab centres, sweatshop factories and the mass-murder of women. Updated with new material ten years on it paints an essential portrait of a country under siege – and testament to people who carry on regardless. `Previously, to understand the ruthlessness, ambition and impact of today`s global criminals, you needed to read Roberto Saviano`s Gomorrah and Misha Glenny`s McMafia. Now, you also need to read Vulliamy`s Amexica` The Sunday Times
