| BOOK
DESCRIPTION |
| |
| |
| This
is the most current, complete and authoritative TREATISE on Mexican
law especially prepared by Mexico's leading experts on business law,
foreign investment and international trade for the benefit of U.S.
and Canadian legal practitioners and international investors. |
| |
| The
contributing authors were selected from Mexico's largest and most
prestigious law firms from Mexico City, Monterrey, Tijuana and Mexicali
as well as key officials from federal agencies of the Government of
Mexico such as the Secretariat of Economy (formerly SECOFI), the Mexican
Institute of Intellectual Property (IMPI) and the Secretariat of Communications
and Transport (SCT). The TREATISE has proven its value as a legal
tool and a practical guide for entrepreneurs, government officials,
legislators, diplomats and academicians. |
| |
| The
MEXICAN LAW TREATISE appeared in two volumes published by West Group
in 1998. Volumes 1 and 2 are formed by 28 chapters, 7 Appendices and
a total of almost twelve hundred pages. Each chapter discusses in
a clear and systematic manner a specific area of Mexican law governing
business, foreign investment and international trade. Furthermore,
each chapter is complemented by these practical additions: |
| |
| |
1)
A summary;
2) Five legal questions and answers;
3) A sample of a Mexican legal document;
4) A U.S. bibliography;
5) A Mexican bibliography in Spanish; and
6) A bilingual Legal Glossary (English/Spanish). |

| The
seven Appendices are: I. Synopsis of Mexican Legislation on Business,
Investment and Trade; II. Table of International Agreements in force
between Mexico and the United States; III. Table of International
Agreements in force between Mexico and Canada; IV. Directory of Mexico's
Federal Agencies involved in business and foreign investment; V. Directory
of Mexican Private Entities involved in Business, Investment and Trade
in Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey and Tijuana; VI. Legal and
Official Acronyms; and VII. List of Mexican Consulates in the United
States and Canada. |
| |
| Currently,
the TREATISE is formed by four volumes. Volumes 3 and 4 were added
in June of 2001. Volume 3 is formed by eleven chapters discussing
brand new areas of Mexican law. In addition, this volume contains
the English translation of the latest Mexican statutes on anti-trust,
telecommunications, foreign investment regulations, maquiladoras,
ports and fishing. |
| |
| Volume

in international trade. In particular, the successful negotiations
which led Mexico to the signing of a Free Trade Agreement with the
European Union (including as a special appendix the complete English
text of this Agreement), as well as Mexico's new bilateral agreements
for the protection and promotion of foreign investment, are included
in this volume. |
