Book excerpt: Excerpt from Land Redistribution in Mexico The governments of Latin America are looking closely these days at the patterns of land ownership in their countries and the uses to which land is being put. Land-redistribution programs are now in effect in several of the countries, and are being planned in others. Mexico was the first of the Latin American countries to put into effect such an agrarian reform program. That program is not yet complete, but is a continuing one. President Adolfo Lopez Mateos has announced the intention of his administration to intensify the agrarian program and the distribution of land until every landless peasant has received a plot of his own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Land Systems of Mexico Thus, in studying Mexico's land system, we are considering a very ancient institution, one whose roots lie buried in the past the distant period in which white men first arrived upon the western hemisphere, bearing with them the customs peculiar to the lands and times from which they came, and the still more remote past when native American institutions were being formed in response to the demands of primitive society. Conse quently the study must be partly historical, as we trace back the path over which the different methods of tenure have evolved into their present form and as we see the customs of long ago crystallizing into the institutions of today. But the study of an agrarian system of a country is more than the mere tracing of its historical development. The land system of Mexico, like other social institutions anywhere, has either grown up out Of the very depths of its physical environment or has, at least, been modified by adaptation to the habitat into which it has been transplanted. Since the character of that physical setting varies in the different parts of the country, we shall have to see how the method of tenure responds to the vari ous environmental influences and, particularly, what result is obtained by the different systems in the several widely diverse geographical provinces of which the country is composed. More over, since Mexico is now in the midst of an attempted agrarian reform, it will be well to consider whether her contemplated inno vations are adapted to the particular physical conditions pre sented in the various parts of the country. The study is thus geographical as well as historical. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Mexican Revolution and the Nationalization of the Land written by Doctor Atl and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mexican Revolution and the Nationalization of the Land: The Foreign Interests and Reaction Rigorously speaking, the political parties in Mexico may be divided into four classes. The party of Villa, which represents reaction in three forms: specific barbarism, embodied in the primitive man, General Villa; militarism represented by General Angeles, and the capitalist and clerical intrigue synthethized by Dr. Silva, the lawyer Miguel Diaz Lombardo and Somerfeld the Jew. The party of Zapata, whose existence is due principally to the hunger of the masses and the secular Spanish oppression. The tendencies of this party - although some of its politicians pretend to give it a socialist-revolutionary, or rather syndicalist character - are exclusively communist. The third division is that of the undecided - the civilians and army-men from all over the Republic who have not had a sufficient understanding of the situation to adopt a course of action and assist in the regeneration of their country. The fourth class is formed by the party known until now as the Constitutionalist party, and which in spite of its essentially legal name, carries in itself the most fruitful germs of a thorough social reform. Having accomplished the mission of overthrowing General Huerta and annihilating the Federal Army, it must now put into execution in a determined manner, the reforms which the urgent needs of the country demand.

Download or read book The Agrarian Dispute written by John Dwyer and published by Duke University Press Books. This book was released on 2008-09-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1930s the Mexican government expropriated millions of acres of land from hundreds of U.S. property owners as part of President Lázaro Cárdenas’s land redistribution program. Because no compensation was provided to the Americans a serious crisis, which John J. Dwyer terms “the agrarian dispute,” ensued between the two countries. Dwyer’s nuanced analysis of this conflict at the local, regional, national, and international levels combines social, economic, political, and cultural history. He argues that the agrarian dispute inaugurated a new and improved era in bilateral relations because Mexican officials were able to negotiate a favorable settlement, and the United States, constrained economically and politically by the Great Depression, reacted to the crisis with unaccustomed restraint. Dwyer challenges prevailing arguments that Mexico’s nationalization of the oil industry in 1938 was the first test of Franklin Roosevelt’s Good Neighbor policy by showing that the earlier conflict over land was the watershed event. Dwyer weaves together elite and subaltern history and highlights the intricate relationship between domestic and international affairs. Through detailed studies of land redistribution in Baja California and Sonora, he demonstrates that peasant agency influenced the local application of Cárdenas’s agrarian reform program, his regional state-building projects, and his relations with the United States. Dwyer draws on a broad array of official, popular, and corporate sources to illuminate the motives of those who contributed to the agrarian dispute, including landless fieldworkers, indigenous groups, small landowners, multinational corporations, labor leaders, state-level officials, federal policymakers, and diplomats. Taking all of them into account, Dwyer explores the circumstances that spurred agrarista mobilization, the rationale behind Cárdenas’s rural policies, the Roosevelt administration’s reaction to the loss of American-owned land, and the diplomatic tactics employed by Mexican officials to resolve the international conflict.

Book excerpt: Markiewicz (Latin American history, U. of California, Los Angeles) argues that the agrarian reforms announced by the winners of the Mexican revolution were an effort to quell real reform, were never meant to work, and never did. She also, however, disputes the romantic vision of the peasant as an agent of positive social change. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Download or read book Land Protest and Politics written by Gabriel Ondetti and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brazil is a country of extreme inequalities, one of the most important of which is the acute concentration of rural land ownership. In recent decades, however, poor landless workers have mounted a major challenge to this state of affairs. A broad grassroots social movement led by the Movement of Landless Rural Workers (MST) has mobilized hundreds of thousands of families to pressure authorities for land reform through mass protest. This book explores the evolution of the landless movement from its birth during the twilight years of Brazil&’s military dictatorship through the first government of Luiz In&ácio Lula da Silva. It uses this case to test a number of major theoretical perspectives on social movements and engages in a critical dialogue with both contemporary political opportunity theory and Mancur Olson&’s classic economic theory of collective action. Ondetti seeks to explain the major moments of change in the landless movement's growth trajectory: its initial emergence in the late 1970s and early 80s, its rapid takeoff in the mid-1990s, its acute but ultimately temporary crisis in the early 2000s, and its resurgence during Lula's first term in office. He finds strong support for the influential, but much-criticized political opportunity perspective. At the same time, however, he underscores some of the problems with how political opportunity has been conceptualized in the past. The book also seeks to shed light on the anomalous fact that the landless movement continued to expand in the decade following the restoration of Brazilian democracy in 1985 despite the general trend toward social-movement decline. His argument, which highlights the unusual structure of incentives involved in the struggle for land in Brazil, casts doubt on a key assumption underlying Olson's theory.
