Cycles of Conflict, Centuries of Change: Crisis, Reform and Revolution in Mexico. ELISA SERVÍN, LETICIA REINA, and JOHN TUTINO (eds.): Durham and London: Duke University Press, 2007.

Resumen

This ambitious book began at a seminar in Mexico City in 1999 and culminated at a public conference in Washington, D.C., in 2000. Its eleven essays address the following question: if both the 1810 Independence wars and the 1910 Revolution had been preceded by periods of state-led reform, economic growth, and increasing disparities between rich and poor, could the strange parallelism that has marked modern Mexican history be repeated yet again in 2010?
