I owe my deepest gratitude to him, for his constant assistance, inspiration, encouragement, and hard work from the very beginning to the very end of this project. To my Mum, Dad, and Aunt Vasanti, you not only supported me financially in this decision, but you kept me sane in all realms during these past three years. None of this would have happened without your support and love. I would also like to thank Professor Terry Rugeley at the University of Oklahoma, Professor Nigel Dennis at the University of St. Andrews, and Professor Paul Garner at the University of Leeds for their extremely helpful comments, suggestions, and reviews throughout this project. In Yucatán, I would like to thank Dr. Arturo Güémez Pineda for all his academic as well as general assistance throughout my stay; it has been extremely appreciated. I am particularly grateful to the Vergara family (especially Andrea Vergara Medina and Cinthia Vanessa Fernández Vergara) for welcoming me and making me one of their family. Thanks to them, my stay in Yucatán was one of the happiest periods of my life. In the Archivo General del Estado de Yucatán, I would also like to thank Cinthia Vanessa Fernández Vergara for her constant assistance. I am also grateful to Carmen Méndez Serralta, for providing me with essential primary source documents. At the Centro de Apoyo a la Investigación Histórica de Yucatán, I am extremely indebted to Elizabeth García Avilés, not only for her help at the Centre, but for her enduring friendship. I also give thanks to Felipe Escalante for all his assistance at the Centre. Last but certainly not least, I would like to thank my colleagues and fellow pronunciados at the University of St. Andrews, especially Melissa Boyd and Kerry McDonald for their invaluable companionship and support along the way. i Abstract Unique to nineteenth-century Spain and Central America, the pronunciamiento can be interpreted as an act of insubordination against ruling authorities, which included a written document with a list of complaints or demands. The practice was almost always carried out by members of the army, but usually involved heavy participation by political and civilian sectors of society as well. The pronunciamiento more often than not contained a threat of military violence if the grievances of the pronunciados were not listened to; as a result, it carried with it the implicit consequence of armed revolt. The pronunciamiento was responsible for major political changes in early nineteenth- century Mexico and Yucatán, and was also one of the most powerful forces of political and societal destabilisation during this period. Indeed, the pronunciamiento was responsible for the establishment of federalist and centralist systems, changes of constitutions, and constant overthrows of presidents. This was also true on a smaller scale in Yucatán, as the pronunciamiento was not only used to depose governors and administrations, but was the key negotiatory mechanism between the Yucatecan and Mexican administrations; yucatecos resorted to the pronunciamiento to realise their secessions from and reunifications to Mexico throughout the early nineteenth century. The aim of this thesis is to expose the dynamic of the Yucatecan pronunciamiento. It will challenge the present depiction of the pronunciamiento as military exercise of destabilization, and will instead concentrate on exposing it as a highly intricate process of political representation and negotiation, at both local and national levels. This will not only contribute toward a greater understanding of pronunciamiento culture on a local and more general scale, but will also reveal a more comprehensive analysis of the socio-political and economic circumstances of nineteenth-century Yucatán. This in turn will aid in re-defining early nineteenth-century Mexico, questioning its traditional depiction as an age of “chaos”, ii and instead exposing it as one dominated by political and ideological forces and factions, who used the pronunciamiento to express their beliefs and to negotiate for change. iii Introduction The early independent years of nineteenth-century Mexico (from independence in 1821 to the beginning of the Porfirio Díaz administration in 1876) were plagued by instability, factionalism, civil conflict, insurrections, and wars, as powerful sectors of society in Mexico City along with those of its regions struggled with the novelties of self- governance, the definition of their political identities, and the understanding and formation of the political system of the nation. Despite inheriting a land ravaged by the War of Independence with stalled economic development, Mexicans still had hopes for a peaceful new nation. Nevertheless, at almost all levels Mexicans were inexperienced with self-rule, and despite the high expectations brought with freedom, it cannot be denied that Mexicans were inheriting a land which had been profoundly conditioned by a colonial structure, with a powerful defined elite above the popular classes. Additionally, there was a severe lack of agreement on the political system which the nascent nation should take. Some – in particular the elite sectors of the regions – preferred a federalist organisation which allowed provinces significant administrative and economic power over their realms; but others believed in a centralist system with Mexico City in main control of resources and administration, and which also preserved the two bastions of colonialism: the Church and the Army (in Terry Rugeley‟s words, “a kind of Spain without the Spaniards: regal, mercantilist, and above all Catholic.”)1 The inexperienced and internally divided society was consequently constituted of several clashing political factions with each believing that it had the solution for creating a stable political system which would bring peace and development to the country. There were different strategies used to express the political ideals of these groups; lawful methods such as elections and constitutions were a constant in the nascent nation. 1 Terry Rugeley, “The Compass Points of Unrest: Pronunciamientos from Within, Without, Above, and Below in Southeast Mexico, 1821-1876” in Will Fowler (ed.), Malcontents, rebels and pronunciados: The Politics of Insurrection in Nineteenth-Century Mexico (Lincoln, NE: University of Nebraska Press, in press). 1 Then there were other means: revolts, civil wars, insurrections, and above all, pronunciamientos. Pronunciamientos inundated the country as the military constantly intervened and mixed with political affairs at both local and national levels, consequently provoking endemic political, social, and economic instability.

  • Casanova, Julían, the Spanish Republic and Civil
    This page intentionally left blank The Spanish Republic and Civil War The Spanish Civil War has gone down in history for the horrific violence that it generated. The climate of euphoria and hope that greeted the over- throw of the Spanish monarchy was utterly transformed just five years later by a cruel and destructive civil war. Here, Julián Casanova, one of Spain’s leading historians, offers a magisterial new account of this crit- ical period in Spanish history. He exposes the ways in which the Republic brought into the open simmering tensions between Catholics and hard- line anticlericalists, bosses and workers, Church and State, order and revolution. In 1936, these conflicts tipped over into the sacas, paseos and mass killings that are still passionately debated today. The book also explores the decisive role of the international instability of the 1930s in the duration and outcome of the conflict. Franco’s victory was in the end a victory for Hitler and Mussolini, and for dictatorship over democracy. julián casanova is Professor of Contemporary History at the University of Zaragoza, Spain. He is one of the leading experts on the Second Republic and the Spanish Civil War and has published widely in Spanish and in English.

  • From Petitions to Mass Meetings in Nineteenth-Century Portugal1
    Embodying public opinion: from petitions to mass meetings in nineteenth-century Portugal1 Diego Palacios Cerezales2 Abstract The establishment of representative government in Portugal implied the free participation of the citizenry in the formation of public opinion. The right to petition was initially understood as an individual form of participation, but soon it would be practiced through public gatherings, marches and other displays of the collective will of a multitude. Initially, most of those forms of popular participation were identified with riots and insurrections, but during the second half of the nineteenth century, the public meeting became institutionalized. This paper explores the process whereby political campaigns based on drafting petitions, collecting signatures, and holding public meetings became a legitimate political form. Keywords Portugal; nineteenth century; social movements; citizenship; repertoires of contention Resumo O estabelecimento do governo representativo em Portugal implicou a participação livre dos cidadãos na formação da opinião pública. O direito de petição foi inicialmente entendido como uma forma individual de participação, mas rapidamente passou a ser praticado através de reuniões públicas, marchas e outras manifestações através das quais as multidões expressavam o seu sentir. Inicialmente, a maior parte destas manifestações populares eram dificilmente distinguíveis dos motins ou dos movimentos insurrecionais mas, durante a segunda metade do século XIX o meeting ou comício ficou institucionalizado.

(References to this study should include the foregoing statement.) ii ABSTRACT MIXED BLESSING: THE ROLE OF THE TEXAS RANGERS IN THE MEXICAN WAR, 1846-1848, by MAJ Ian B. Lyles, 110 pages. The Texas Rangers assumed many roles during the Mexican War (1846-1848), fighting in both the northern and central theaters. Along with frontier knowledge and combat experience, they also brought prejudices and they earned a reputation for ill-discipline. Thus, the central research question is whether the Texas Rangers contributed to the success of conventional army forces or did they materially hinder Generals Taylor and Scott more than they helped? Analysis begins by discussing the Mexican War, the Texas Rangers, and the concept of Compound Warfare (CW) (conventional and unconventional forces employed simultaneously to gain a synergistic advantage).
