This work describes the profound changes to Yucatán's society and economy following the 1982 debt crisis that prostrated Mexico's economy. The editors have assembled contributions from seasoned "Yucatecologists"--historians, geographers, cultural students, and an economist--to chart the accelerated change in Yucatán from a monocrop economy to a full beneficiary and victim of rampant globalization.
