Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
Al 2020, México cuenta con estadísticas actualizadas sobre las condiciones sociales y económicas al publicarse los Censos de Población y Vivienda 2020 y los Censos Económicos 2019, lo que permite enriquecer la actividad de investigación, análisis, diagnósticos y evaluación de las políticas públicas, que pueden sin lugar a dudas sustentar la toma de decisiones y diseñar escenarios de desarrollo más confiables que incidan en lograr lo que ONU hábitat plantea, guiar a las ciudades en los próximos 20 años para hacer de ellas espacios más seguros, amigables, sostenibles, resilientes, inclusivos, compactos, saludables, promotores del crecimiento sostenido, de interacción social y de expresión cultural para sus habitantes, donde las autoridades locales tienen una alta responsabilidad (ONU, 2017). Zemelman y Valencia (2010), reflexionan sobre el papel de la ciencia y la investigación para sustentar las actividades de planificación y la toma de decisiones, que aproveche el desarrollo y uso de la tecnología para promover un desarrollo equilibrado y más enfocado en el hombre.

The Cristero movement is an essential part of the Mexican Revolution. When in 1926 relations between Church and state, old enemies and old partners, eventually broke down, when the churches closed and the liturgy was suspended, Rome, Washington and Mexico, without ever losing their heads, embarked upon a long game of chess. These years were crucial, because they saw the setting up of the contemporary political system. The state established its omnipotence, supported by a bureaucratic apparatus and a strong privileged class. Just at the moment when the state thought that it was finally supreme, at the moment at which it decided to take control of the Church, the Cristero movement arose, a spontaneous mass movement, particularly of peasants, unique in its spread, its duration, and its popular character. For obvious reasons, the existing literature has both denied its reality and slandered it.
