"This is a highly original, important, and compelling contribution to the history of modern Mexico specifically and to the history of crime and punishment more generally. Pablo Piccato's broad range of primary sources is remarkable, as is his thoughtful engagement with scholarship from an equally broad range of disciplines."— Robert Buffington, Professor of Women and Gender Studies, University of Colorado, Boulder
"A History of Infamy is one of the first studies to address the critical questions of crime and punishment in twentieth-century Mexico. More than a simple critique of state fecklessness in the administration of justice, it is a study in the expression of critical public opinion and the making of civil society. A History of Infamy is a highly original and timely contribution to our understanding of a country currently plagued by the very problems and promises the book addresses."— Mary Kay Vaughan, author of Portrait of a Young Painter: Pepe Zuñiga and Mexico City's Rebel Generation
