Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexican Problems The recent triumph of the Liberal or Popular Party in Mexico, after almost 4 years of struggle, presents a unique opportunity for the carrying of certain economic changes which will destroy forever the dangerous political power of those egotistical groups composed of big landowners, who up to now have maintained the working classes in a state of slavery and ignorance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty Years With the Mexicans: In Peace and Revolution American readers all possible light upon the Mexic people and their problems. Of all literature, that is the most useful which is the result of sympathetic and close personal relations. The writer has had the privi lege of travelling a little in Mexico with Dr. Case, particularly in those regions ofgiihughua which were most recently his home, and can give personal testi mony to the intimate friendship existing between Dr. Case and the Mexican people, and to the heroism with which he went on about his accustomed life in Mexico during years when the northern states were overrun with disorganized bands of soldiers and outlaws and life there was full of danger. His book presents a series of views of Mexican life, the veracity of which is apparent to any one who has visited Mexico, and his conclusions with respect to the Mexican people and their future are the thoughts of a man of close powers of observation, sympathetic insight, and long experi ence in analyzing the characters of men of another race and heritage from ourselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexico, Its Revolutions: Are They Evidences of Retrogression or of Progress? A Historical and Political Review Northward she enjoys the immediate contact of the wonderful national progress of the great republic, while to the southward, within easy reach, lie the trade and wealth of South America. There is not a commercial country in the world which she cannot reach by easy water communication and in almost a straight line. With such a magnificent geographical position, there should spring up great cities and commercial centers upon her territory; for, as commerce advances, it will place her, with reference to the modern trade of the world, in nearly the same position that Syria, Mesopotamia, and the whole of Western Persia occupied to its ancient trade. It was the East Indian and European trade currents, flowing over these countries, which gave birth to the cities of Selucia, Palmyra, Sidon, and her colony, Tyre. The same causes, later, forced into notice Byzantium and Alexandria, made Rome and Carthage centres of distribution for East Indian products, and gave Venice wealth and power to turn back the Ottoman sword from Europe. No better illustration of the importance of occupying a central position, with reference to the great trade currents, can be selected than by the comparison of Europe in the latter part of the fifteenth with the beginning of the sixteenth century. In 1498 her whole Indian commerce flowed westward from its Asiatic sources through the old laborious channels to the eastern shore of the Mediterranean, where the merchants of Genoa and Venice became its principal European distributors. Every Mediterranean port resounded to the hum of commercial life. Suddenly the tide was turned; Vasco de Gama, retracing the track made by Pharaoh Necho's Phoenician ships twenty centuries before, rolled away the barriers to great commercial development, and ordered Europe henceforth to look to the Atlantic coast for centers of East Indian supply. The whole Atlantic seaboard immediately sprang to meet the demands made upon it, and to reap the civilizing influences caused by an intense forcing of mental activity to supply the wants of rival commercial interests, and gather the new harvest laid at the feet of Western Europe. It was like a desert simoon to the Mediterranean ports; the great Nile of Asiatic commerce, which had annually borne in its tide the segregated wealth of the Indies, had changed its course, and now poured its wealth around the Cape of Good Hope and through the dreaded portals of Hercules. The Mediterranean ports which had throve upon its bounty suddenly sunk into mere local importance; or, no longer imbibing its fructifying power, became, like Venice, a mournful wreck of their former splendor. The world now breathed westward. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The New Regime in Mexico  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The New Regime in Mexico Classic Reprint written by Charles W. Hackett and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Regime in Mexico As a result the presidential reign of Porfirio Diaz, cov ering, with the exception of four years, the period from 1876 until 1911, stands in marked contrast to the political instability and financial bankruptcy which characterized Mexico's first half century as an independent nation.' Since the causes for the revolution, which, we trust, definitely came to an end just a few months ago, are to be found in this thir ty-five year period, some general considerations concerning the chief actor and the period as a whole are pertinent. Largely of Indian blood himself - therefore conscious of the political and social incapacities of the Mexican people - and schooled as he was by years of experience in the political up heavals of the past few decades, Porfirio Diaz sensed with remarkable foresight the great need of his country, namely, political stability which he proposed to secure through a strong executive. By the blood and iron policy of a Bis marck, or the Machiavellian policy of an Italian prince, or acting on the theory that every man has his price - by either or all of these methods, it mattered not which - Diaz soon succeeded in bringing order otof chaos, and in establish ing political stability and financial responsibility where kaleidoscopic changes of government and bankruptcy had been the rule theretofore. But in spite of this, once safely in power, Diaz feigned a desire to proceed strictly along the paths of constitutionality; the constitution, instead of being a thing to be set aside or ignored at will, was con veni'ently and legally amended whenever his program so de manded. As a result, Mexico began to recuperate, and, for Zthe first time in their history, Mexicans came to realize that peace and prosperity go hand in hand. Industry, commerce.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Barbarous Mexico: An Indictment of a Cruel and Corrupt System Tm: bulk of the material embodied in this volume was gathered during two journeys through Mexico made in 1908 and 1909; the rest of it was gleaned from a careful study of current writings on Mexico, both in English and in Spanish, and from other sources. My purpose is to give the reader a correct impres sion of President Diaz and his political and economic system, of the character of the Mexican people, and of the diaz-american partnership, which has helped to enslave the Mexican nation on the one hand and has kept the American public in ignorance of the real facts on the other. Current illusions concerning Mexico and its President are exploded, and the American defenders of slavery and autocracy are made to appear in their true light. The term barbarous which I use in my title is intended to apply to Mexico's form of government, and not to its people, who have my ungrudging sympathy in the afflictions under which they groan.

Book Mexico s Dilemma  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Mexico s Dilemma Classic Reprint written by Carl W. Ackerman and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mexico's Dilemma Mexico's Dilemma has three horns. They are: 1. Financial ruin of Mexico and internal disorders unless a loan is obtained. 2. The possibility of subjugation to German influence with all of its liability for external strife. 3. Co-operation with the United States, England, France and America. What will Mexico do? The answer is one which future events will determine. In this book the author has tried to tell what forces and influences are sharpening each of the three horns. There are bandits, disloyal Mexicans, ambitious officials, patriotic citizens, honest business men, Teutonic intriguers, spies, propagandists, diplomats, millionaires, army officers and I. W. W. firebrands at work. Is it any wonder, then, that Mexico finds herself in such a Dilemma? Mexico has always been a home and workshop for foreigners. Several thousand years ago the Chinese settled in that country and, judging from the relics which are found to-day, in and about Mexico City, Chinese civilisation flourished there for a few hundred years.

These subjects will be explained with reference to the vital interests the American people have in Mexico, not omitting to touch, suggestively, upon those intimate relations which, sooner or later, must be established between the two republics.

Book The Mexican Situation

Download or read book The Mexican Situation written by Luis Cabrera and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mexican Situation: From a Mexican Point of View Much has been said in the United States about the Mexican situation, but actual conditions in Mexico have never been fully understood, because they have always been examined from an American point of view. The sources from which Americans draw their information about Mexico are chiefly foreign residents and investors, who are very apt to consider the Mexican situation only from the standpoint of their own interests. All that foreigners seek in Mexico is the re-establishment of a state of things favoring the continuation and promotion of business. They generally believe that the conditions of Mexicans themselves and those issues of a purely national character do not concern them, and consequently they do not regard them as necessary factors in the problem as they understand it. Hence it is that the solutions suggested, although beneficial perhaps to foreign interests, do not tend to solve the Mexican problem itself. To fully understand the Mexican situation and to find a solution satisfactory both to Mexican and foreign interests it is necessary to review the question from a Mexican point of view. Such is the purpose of this memorandum. The Rule of the Iron Hand The majority of foreigners in Mexico believe that the only political problem which interests them is peace. But, misled by superficial judgment or inspired by impatience, they have believed that the establishment of peace depends only on the energy with which the country is governed. All foreigners in Mexico look for a rigorous government, an iron hand or a mailed fist, and the only thing they discuss is whether a certain man is sufficiently "strong" to control the country. And when they find a man with such qualities, foreigners always have believed that it was their duty to help that man to come into power and to support him.
