NAFTA Cross Border Trucking - The Winners and Losers

Has NAFTA been beneficial for Mexico and has it really been a good thing for her citizens?  Will opening the U.S. to cross border trucking help the people of Mexico and the U.S. to build a better life as the media and governments claims?  What are the benefits of NAFTA for truck drivers from both sides of the border? Our special guests are Professor William Arrocha of the Monterey Institute of International Studies in Monterey, California. An expert in U.S.- Mexico relations, he teaches courses in international political economy, international relations, comparative politics (US, Canada and Mexico) and trade policy.  He also assisted in the drafting of the North American Free Trade Agreement, pursuant to the Provisions of Article 1904.  Joining us from Mexico City, Mexico is Diego Delgado González, a documentary film director and co-director at Totora Films and a graduate in Licenciatura, Communications from the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana.  As a producer, cameraman and correspondent in Mexico City at IPS Inter Press Service, he knows first-hand of the quality of life experienced by the Mexican people.  We'll take you inside Mexico City and the NAFTA Cross Border Agreement and report on who is really benefiting from NAFTA and who is not.
