註釋There may not be any integrative agreements formally binding the United States and Mexico together, but a great deal of interdependency -an invisible integration - does exist between them. The two countries are indeed interdependent, an interdependency that covers every aspect of the sociopolitical and economic spectrum. Sociologically, about 10% of the U.S. population is of Mexican ancestry and share Mexico's cultural values and attributes. Economically, the United States is the source or destination of almost two thirds of Mexico's foreign trade as well as being the major source of technology and foreign investment for Mexico. Politically, the two countries share similar ideologies and objectives. There is divergence to be sure: divergence in the stage of economic development, divergence in income distribution and consumerism, divergence in culture and divergence in many other aspects of life in the two countries; but such differences do not detract from the basic invisible integration that exists between them. The overriding integrative tendencies can allow for an expanding and mutually beneficial relationship for the two countries in the economic, political, and social areas. Free trade, cooperation in the drug war and better understanding of economic and health problems indicate positive trends for the near term.
