I owe a huge debt to Dr. Terry Rugeley, my advisor and mentor for the last four and a half years. From my first day at the University of Oklahoma he encouraged me to pursue my own interests and provided key insights into the historian’s craft. He went out of his way to personally introduce me to a number of archives, people, and cities in Mexico. He further acquainted me with other historians in the United States. Most importantly, he gave his time. He never failed to be there when I needed assistance and he always read, critiqued, and returned chapter drafts in a timely manner. Dr. Rugeley and his wife Dr. Margarita Peraza-Rugeley always welcomed me into their home, providing hospitality, sound advice, the occasional side job, and friendship. Thank you both. Other professors at OU helped guide my development as a historian, and their assistance made this dissertation a stronger work.

  • The Limits of Porfirian Influence in Guerrero: Political Autonomy and the Plan Del Zapote
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Limits of Porfirian Influence in Guerrero: Political Autonomy and the Plan del Zapote A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Latin American Studies by Christian Andres Ramirez 2021 © Copyright by Christian Andres Ramirez 2021 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS The Limits of Porfirian Influence in Guerrero: Political Autonomy and the Plan del Zapote by Christian Andres Ramirez Master of Arts in Latin American Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2021 Professor Fernando Pérez Montesinos The Mexican Revolution of 1910 did not happen in a vacuum, it occurred due to a series of grievances against the Porfirian regime. These grievances, which came from a plethora of social groups from the rural peasantry to even the urban liberal elite, sought to return the liberal order back to the ideals enshrined in the Constitution of 1857. One of the biggest grievances for the people of Guerrero was the assault on local and state autonomy that had befallen the region since the rise of Porfirio Díaz. This thesis examines how the challenges to political autonomy of the Indigenous pueblos of Guerrero and the urban state elites during the Porfiriato pushed the region to participate in the Mexican Revolution. A possible explanation can be found by reevaluating the significance of a pronunciamiento known as the Plan del Zapote. The Plan del Zapote was a manifesto and uprising that occurred in the municipality of Mochitlán, Guerrero in 1901. The ii pronunciamiento reaffirmed the liberal tradition that existed prior to the rise of Díaz, a liberalism coined by historian Peter Guardino as popular liberalism.

(1) When we write to friends and family, though we seem to be reporting on the past we are actually looking to the future. (2) The work I do, the work I seem to have been doing for quite a while, is to seek out ideas and images that enable our common future to avoid being mindlessly burdened by our shared past. Were I a good Buddhist, I would know that neither past nor future exist. There is only now and even in “now” there is no absolute reality. I am enough of a Buddhist to know that there is certainly no absolute reality in “history.” Even in the middle of a single household, it is evident that each of the different children grow up in different families, if only by virtue of birth order. So within the much larger and more complex system of relationships among people living in the United States, it is inconceivable that any of us inhabit identical narratives, identical ways of telling the stories of the history of this particular nation-state.

While these migrants authored virtually no written sources, they left their mark in other ways. They employed one of the few resources available to them—mobility—to pioneer alternative routes across the borderlands.

    THE STORY OF GUADALUPE, ARIZONA: THE SURVIVAL AND PRESERVATION OF A YAQUI COMMUNITY by Leah S. Glaser A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 1996 ABSTRACT Guadalupe’s formation and persistence in the Phoenix area is a long overlooked topic of local history. Despite heavy residential, commercial, and industrial development, the once remote farm labor community has remained impervious to urban expansion. Residents have managed to preserve a degree of cultural and geographic separatism while participating in the economic and political structure of Phoenix’s dominant Anglo society. When late nineteenth century land reform policies of Mexican dictator Porfirio Diaz forced Yaquis from their homeland in Sonora, Mexico and threatened to kill them, Yaqui Indians fled to Arizona. Anglos there were sympathetic to their plight as refugees and Yaquis were able to find a niche in the Salt River Valley’s agricultural economy. Catholic and Presbyterian missionaries also supported the community and helped secure land for a legal townsite. But as immigrants and squatters, the political status of both Yaquis and Guadalupe was legally ambiguous. Meanwhile, many corporations set up labor camps, or “company towns,” the Salt River Valley Water Users’ Association established an exclusively Yaqui village that provided stability for the community’s sustenance and persistence. These factors combined with self identity, determination, and community consciousness to place the Yaqui community in a promising position for sustenance and longevity. By the 1960s, Guadalupe was no longer just a Yaqui community, but a Mexican-American as well. Whether by choice or by proximity, they joined Mexican-Americans in their fight for political voice and economic improvements.
