Extra Resources - Articles

A few articles for those of you interested to read them:

1)  Mexico's Recession shows the downside of close US links

I think given what we have been doing in class, that you will be able to follow the essentials of what this piece from Reuters is suggesting. 

2)  OECD in the News (1)

I took the previous link from this page, which lists some recent publications from the OECD concerning Mexico.  You might like to look at what further information is available.

3)  OECD in the News (2)

Finally, a nice article from El Imparcial mentioning the OECD, just to show you that there is some relevance to what we talk about in class, and even our local newspaper is interested!

Happy reading!!

Excellent Resource - Hiroshima

Dear Students,

It´s been 64 years since the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan. This link provides excellent high-quality photographs of the disaster, for you to appreciate just how destructive the bomb was, and why we really do need to think before we use nuclear weapons.

I will say that this website in general is excellent, but do be advised that some of the images are graphic in nature.

Have a good weekend,
