  • New Mexico Statehood and Political Inequality • the Case of Nuevomexicanos
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by UNM Open Journals Portal (The University of New Mexico) • New Mexico Statehood and Political Inequality • The Case of Nuevomexicanos PHILLIP B. GONZALES rior to the late 1880s, the civic and political leaders of Nuevomexica- nos generally disagreed on the question of statehood for territorial New Mexico. As one faction or another put the issue on the public agenda, Pthose who favored it joined Euroamerican (the vernacular “Anglo”) settlers who believed that statehood would accelerate the modern development of the territory to everyone’s benefit and enable the people to enjoy the political sovereignty that regular membership among the states in the Union held out. Opponents generally believed that the territory was not yet ready for statehood, and especially that it would burden the mass of poor Spanish-speaking citizens with unaffordable taxes until the territory’s economy could develop sufficiently.1 But as David Holtby’s recent book on New Mexico’s achievement of statehood indicates, Nuevomexicano spokesmen at the turn of the twentieth century clearly, if not unequivocally, supported the statehood movement. The success of the statehood proposition rested on this support. Nuevomexicanos constituted the majority of New Mexico’s population and statehood required that the population ratify the 1910 constitution. A great deal thus rode on Nuevomexicano leaders Phillip B. (Felipe) Gonzales is professor of Sociology at the University of New Mexico (UNM). At UNM he was formerly associate dean of faculty, College of Arts & Sciences; chair of Sociology; and director of the Southwest Hispanic Research Institute.
