MEXICO'S Party of the Democratic Revolution surprised the pundits by choosing Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who narrowly lost the 2006 presidential election, as its candidate again in 2012. This week's issue of The Economist analyses how his entry will transform the race. It also includes stories on human rights in Brazil, mining protests in Peru and the increasing political participation of Canadian aborigines.
