Trading with Mexico by Wallace Thompson
QR code
"Trading with Mexico" by Wallace Thompson is a comprehensive account of the economic and political landscape of Mexico written in the early 20th century. This work primarily targets American business professionals, aiming to provide an in-depth analysis of the challenges and opportunities present in the Mexican market. Thompson emphasizes the complexities of engaging in trade with Mexico, highlighting both its rich natural resources and significant barriers, particularly the political instability that affects
business operations. At the start of the text, Thompson articulates his advocacy for American businessmen to approach the Mexican trade landscape with a clear, factual understanding instead of reliance on optimism or sentimentality. He outlines three fundamental elements vital for trading effectively in Mexico: the market, credit, and the operation of government and laws. In his opening chapters, Thompson delves into the demographics and the economic reality of Mexico, depicting a largely impoverished population with a tiny consumer base that can afford goods. He further explores the implications of Mexico's unstable government on credit and business trust, arguing that without a restoration of rights for foreign investments and enterprise, the path to successful trade remains obstructed.
