Abstract
As of 2023, Mexico is the United States’ largest trading partner. Both nations share an extensive border, and historically, they have alternated between aggression and cooperation. In addition, the United States is home to the second largest community of Mexican and Mexican descents. Moreover, Mexico has a rich and vibrant culture that is both traditional and ever evolving. Learning about the development of Mexican national identity is crucial for students at US colleges and universities. The International Studies Research Lab (ISRL) aims to provide faculty with resources and time to better serve a better cultural understanding of other nations in a context of globalization. SPAN 310 Mexican Culture and National identity will also play a critical role to internationalize curricular offerings at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE) given that there is not a similar class offered by the History or Political Science Departments.
