Mexico City: Whose City?

Synopsis: With Mexico City’s population at over 15 million and growing, the city seems almost out of control, with vast areas of squatter settlements standing in stark contrast to rich enclaves surrounded by armed guards. Looks at the experiences of the city from the perspective of both rich and poor, focusing on the power relationships within the city and the ways in which different groups influence and control the city’s public life.

Notes: NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
