The Mexican Ministry of Health's anti-malaria campaigns of the last sixty years have overlapped and interacted with both the World Health Organization's Global Eradication Program and a series of major political, social, and demographic movements in Mexico, including economic transformation, migration, urbanization, tourism, rural development, and the building of social and sanitary services. The authors argue that three decades of successful environmentally-oriented malaria work that integrated social and economic development was followed by the Global Campaign's insecticide-based approach that failed in both its economic and public health objectives, ultimately serving to block development efforts, particularly in poorer and southern states.
在过去六十年里，墨西哥卫生部的抗疟疾运动与世界卫生组织的全球根除计划以及墨西哥一系列重大的政治、社会和人口变动相互重叠且相互影响，这些变动包括经济转型、移民、城市化、旅游业、农村发展以及社会和卫生服务建设。作者认为，此前三十年以环境为导向、将社会和经济发展整合在内的成功抗疟工作，之后被全球运动基于杀虫剂的方法所取代，而该方法在经济和公共卫生目标上均告失败，最终阻碍了发展努力，尤其是在较为贫困的南部各州。
