520    People across Mexico are being forced into migration, and 
       while 11 percent of that country's population lives north 
       of the US border, the decision to migrate is rarely 
       voluntary. Free trade agreements and economic policies 
       that exacerbate and reinforce extreme wealth disparities 
       make it impossible for Mexicans to make a living at home. 
       And yet when they migrate to the United States, they must 
       grapple with criminalization, low wages, and exploitation.
       In The Right to Stay Home, journalist David Bacon tells 
       the story of the growing resistance of Mexican 
       communities. Bacon shows how immigrant communities are 
       fighting back--envisioning a world in which migration 
       isn't forced by poverty or environmental destruction and 
       people are guaranteed the "right to stay home." This 
       richly detailed and comprehensive portrait of immigration 
       reveals how the interconnected web of labor, migration, 
       and the global economy unites farmers, migrant workers, 
       and union organizers across borders. In addition to 
       incisive reporting, eleven narratives are included, giving
       readers the chance to hear the voices of activists 
       themselves as they reflect on their experiences, analyze 
       the complexities of their realities, and affirm their 
       vision for a better world. -- Publisher website.
