DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Through 25 peer-reviewed essays, scholars from the United States and Mexico delve into the environmental, social, economic, and cultural-historical components of what we call an environmental and tourism paradise - the region of Los Cabos, Baja California Sur. This region is vulnerable precisely because of the strong development pressure generated mainly by the tourism sector. Los Cabos analyzes these problems as an opportunity to contribute to the sustainable development of the region. Also available in Spanish, see Los Cabos: Prospectiva de un Paraíso Natural y Turístico. Published by San Diego State University Press and Institute for Regional Studies of the Californias

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This is the amazing and compelling story of how Baja California, through actual, yet unrelated events at first, contributes to its eventual secession from Mexico, thus becoming a new nation and eventually "The 51st State" of the United States. A storyline so believable, you'd think you've read it from today's headlines. Many of the incidents in this book are real, albeit tweaked a bit to carry the story line. Moreover, the author's experiences in Baja California are unique as he has lived through many of the events depicted that make up this narrative. The majority of the characters are also real, even though most of the names have been changed, some are still alive. Occurrences that formulate the book are also authentic but timelines were changed for this story; from the massive floods that occurred in the seventies in California, Nevada, Arizona, and in Baja, to recent ecological challenges and today's immigration problems, massive cartel issues, secession meetings, off-road events, and the possibilities of the most recent terrorists' attempts. The compendium of all these are brought to life in this book. Lastly, part of the book also deals with the author's own ideas as to how Baja California should be governed, and how the political climate in the United States should change; suggesting certain solutions that will take into consideration, term limits, environmental dilemmas, immigration solutions, economic growth and even the unusual occurrences that elected an unlikely individual to become the President United States. In short, ABAJA U.S.A. is as timely as today's headlines and provides a template for a greater America.

Packed with new and transformative stories, the book examines the interplay of land reform and migratory labor on the peninsula from 1850 to 1954, as governments, foreign investors, and local communities shaped a vibrant and dynamic borderland alongside the booming cities of Tijuana, Mexicali, and Santa Rosalia. Migration and intermarriage between Mexican women and men from Asia, Europe, and the United States transformed Baja California into a multicultural society. Mixed-race families extended across national borders, forging new local communities, labor relations, and border politics.
