Reviews

Made in Mexico is an original and provocative examination of the trade in weavings and textiles... A significant contribution to both the specific literature on Oaxacan weaving and a more general literature on the production and market of 'ethnic' arts and crafts. Michael Chibnik, author of Crafting Tradition: The Making and Marketing of Oaxacan Wood Carvings
