Por lo general, la historia económica más formal deja mudos a los actores que definen esta economÃa: los comerciantes. Por medio de sus relatos, este libro documenta una historia informal que ha sido poco registrada. Cincuenta entrevistas, hechas entre 2004 y 2006 en algunas de las plazas principales de la Mixteca Alta, forman el eje central del libro. Son las historias de emprendedores mexicanos, que por ser tan personales y reales son estimulantes, alarmantes y atractivas a la vez. Por un lado, son analizadas desde la perspectiva del mercader individual, su agencia local y personal, y por otro lado, desde un punto de vista diacrónico, ya que se presentan, en la medida de lo posible, datos históricos que documentan historias de la vida de los mercaderes y de los mercados de la época precolonial, colonial y del siglo XIX.
