The article focuses on the article "Mexico and California: The Paradox of Tolerance and Dedemocratization," by Jorge G. Castañeda, which appeared in the book "The California-Mexico Collection." Castañeda's article claims that the presence of an excluded Mexican population in California is undermining democracy and argues that immigrants be allowed to vote. The article also discusses illegal immigration and the El Paso Border Patrol reform by patrol chief Silvestre Reyes.
