In view of the developments which have occurred between the United States and Mexico, and the course which has been taken by the socalled Constitutionalists since October last, I believe I may be able to contribute to a clearer understanding of the issues involved by here publishing articles which were written and published by me in the Press of Mexico in October, November and December last. All of these articles were conspicuously displayed in the Press of the Mexican capital, and were published under the direct orders of President Huerta. They may be regarded as expressing the sentiment of President Huerta at the time, and were by the Mexican people considered as the authoritative announcement of his policy. El Impartial and other leading newspapers in Mexico published on the 24th October, 1913, the following: -- N President President Huerta to-day authorised me to give his Hneru's most solemn assurance that the sole use that he has made or will make of his power as Interim President of Mexico is: First: To establish peace in the Bepublic. Second: To comply with the law of his country in holding fair elections in order that the choice of the Mexican people--whoever it may be--shall be installed in power. In point of courage and strength he can be compared to no Mexican except the immortal Porfirio Diaz. He has stated to me that his Government is determined at all costs to protect the lives and the interests of foreigners in Mexico, but that they are equally determined that the domestic affairs of Mexico shall be settled by the Mexicans themselves. President Huerta referred to the President of the United States of America in terms of the greatest respect, and expressed his unbounded admiration for the people and institutions of..

Download or read book Opening Mexico written by Julia Preston and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2005-03-15 with total page 782 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Story of Mexico's political rebirth, by two pulitzer prize-winning reporters Opening Mexico is a narrative history of the citizens' movement which dismantled the kleptocratic one-party state that dominated Mexico in the twentieth century, and replaced it with a lively democracy. Told through the stories of Mexicans who helped make the transformation, the book gives new and gripping behind-the-scenes accounts of major episodes in Mexico's recent politics. Mexico's Institutional Revolutionary Party, led by presidents who ruled like Mesoamerican monarchs, came to be called "the perfect dictatorship." But a 1968 massacre of student protesters by government snipers ignited the desire for democratic change in a generation of Mexicans. Opening Mexico recounts the democratic revolution that unfolded over the following three decades. It portrays clean-vote crusaders, labor organizers, human rights monitors, investigative journalists, Indian guerrillas, and dissident political leaders, such as President Ernesto Zedillo-Mexico's Gorbachev. It traces the rise of Vicente Fox, who toppled the authoritarian system in a peaceful election in July 2000. Opening Mexico dramatizes how Mexican politics works in smoke-filled rooms, and profiles many leaders of the country's elite. It is the best book to date about the modern history of the United States' southern neighbor-and is a tale rich in implications for the spread of democracy worldwide.
Download or read book Unrevolutionary Mexico written by Paul Gillingham and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential history of how the Mexican Revolution gave way to a unique one-party state In this book Paul Gillingham addresses how the Mexican Revolution (1910-1940) gave way to a capitalist dictatorship of exceptional resilience, where a single party ruled for seventy-one years. Yet while soldiers seized power across the rest of Latin America, in Mexico it was civilians who formed governments, moving punctiliously in and out of office through uninterrupted elections. Drawing on two decades of archival research, Gillingham uses the political and social evolution of the states of Guerrero and Veracruz as starting points to explore this unique authoritarian state that thrived not despite but because of its contradictions. Mexico during the pivotal decades of the mid-twentieth century is revealed as a place where soldiers prevented military rule, a single party lost its own rigged elections, corruption fostered legitimacy, violence was despised but decisive, and a potentially suffocating propaganda coexisted with a critical press and a disbelieving public.

Book excerpt: As a study of rebels and authority, of revolution and the suppression of revolution, Revoltosos examines the activities of Mexican rebels in the United States between the Immigration Act of 1903--an attempt to exclude "anarchists"--and the end of the Red Scare in the early 1920s. The revoltosos were insurgents and political refugees, of the right wing as well as the left, who used the United States as a base for their opposition to the dictatorship of Porfirio Diaz and the succeeding governments of Madero, Huerta, and Carranza.

Download or read book Latin American Dictators of the 20th Century written by Javier A. Galván and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the 20th century, the emergence of authoritarian dictatorships in Latin America coincided with periods of social convulsion and economic uncertainty. This book covers 15 dictators representing every decade of the century and geographically from the Caribbean and North and Central and South America. Each chapter covers their personal information (childhood, education, marriage, family...), assumption of power, relationship with the United States, oppression of civilians, and collapse of their regimes. The book also investigates inherent contradictions in U.S. foreign policy: promoting democracy abroad while supporting brutal dictatorships in Latin America. Such analysis requires multiple perspectives and this work embraces an evaluation of the influence of military dictatorships on cultural elements such as art, literature, journalism, music and cinema, while drawing on data from documentary archives, court case files, investigative reports, international treaties, witness testimonies, and personal letters from survivors. The dramatic experiences of courageous individuals who challenged these 15 oppressors are also recounted.
