First, I would like to thank my dissertation director, Kathenne Bliss, for her exceptional guidance of this project. I ler deep knowledge of Mexican history, rigorous .scholarly standards, and intellectual generosity, have all come to bear on this dissertation, improving it in innumerable ways. The other members of my dissertation committee offered crucial support, as well. Jane Kausch gave me ideas about how to think about caudiUisnio and oflered all forms of encouragement during the writing process. I deeply value the stimulating conversations wc have had about Latin American history. Luis Marcnies readily shared his enthusiasm lor my research topic, while his deep insight into Mexican history and culture forced me to hone my analysis. I also appreciate his help dissecting some of the ambiguously worded-documents I found in the Mexican archives. Finally, I am grateful to Lowell Ciudmundson for bringing the perspective of a Central Americanist to this di.ssertation. His generous and penetrating questions have encouraged me to widen my conceptual lens. \u addition to my committee, several other individuals have contributed to my passion for history and commitment to Latin America. Michael Koit, llowarti /inn, and Lois llappe, were my teachers and mentors at Boston University. In ways obvious and subtle, they taught me to u,se history to understand our world. At Northeastern I 'niversity, where I began my graduate studies, I had the fortune to work with Lynn Stephen and Felix Matos Kotln'gue/. i hey were superb teachers and generous scholars, and I thank them for their faith in me. I hanks, also, to William II. Beezley and Ward IV Albro for inviting me to participate in their Oaxaca Graduate Field School in Mexican History in the summer of 1998. This seminar for graduate students gave me a "cohort" of Mexicanists with whom to exchange ideas, and opened up many new scholarly opportunities. William H. Beezley, who has made a project of supporting Mcxicanists- in-the-making, has graciously encouraged my work. I also thank Carlos Martinez Assad and Carmen Ramos Escandon for kindly agreeing to comment on my research when it was still in its initial stages. The history department at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has provided a wonderful environment in which to grow as a scholar, and 1 thank the faculty and graduate students for the sincere interest they have taken in my work. I also wish to acknowledge the department for helping to defray the expenses associated with conference travel, and for the grant money they gave me to conduct preliminary research in Mexico in 1998. Conducting research, especially in another country, is not an inexpensive undertaking, and I am grateful to the institutions that provided funding for this dissertation. I like would to recognize the Instituto Nacional de Estudios Historicos de la Revolucion Mexicana (INEHRM), and the Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research Abroad Program for generously funding my research in Tabasco and Mexico City. The Graduate School at the University of Massachusetts gave me a University Fellowship, which facilitated the writing of this dissertation. In Mexico I had the privilege of working with knowledgeable and helpful archivists and administrators, whose contribution to this project cannot be overstated. Many thanks to Cesar Montoya Cervantes in "Gallery Seven" of the Archivo General de la Nacion ( AGN) in Mexico City, where the Tomas Garrido Canabal collection is located. I also wish to thank Juan Manuel Herrera Huerta, Director of the AGN's Archivo Historico Central, for giving me special permission to consult a documentary collection that was temporarily out of circulation. In Tabasco my debts are deep indeed. Thanks to the following individuals for their professionalism and efficiency: Samuel Rico Medina and the staff of the Casa de Cultura Jurfdica del Estado de Tabasco; Svetlana Yanguiova, Trinidad Torres Vera, and Victor Gorbarkov at the Archivo Historico y Fotografico de Tabasco; and Guadalupe Azuara Forcelledo and the staff at the Biblioteca Jose Marti. I also wish to recognize Juan Manuel de la Fuente Colorado, oficial mayor of the Tribunal Superior de Justicia del Estado de Tabasco, for giving me access to the archives there. In addition to archival holdings, this thesis is built on oral history material that was gathered in 200 -2002. I offer 1 my most profound thanks to the Tabascans who generously shared a bit of the past with me. Their knowledge has forever changed the way I think about Tabascan history. To those individuals who helped me arrange interviews, including Valdimar Alvarez Reyes, Marta and Jose Cruz, David Maron Hernandez, Marilu Garcia, Flora Salazar, Guadalupe Azuara Forcelledo, Cesar Garcia Cordoba, Luisa Camara Cabrales, Candelaria Velasquez Arevalo, and Carmita Gonzalez de Olive, my thanks are due. I also thank the staff at the Casa del Arbol for kindly facilitating my interviews there. Friends in Mexico kept me sane and gave me balance. Ramona Isabel Pe'rez Bci truy, a fellow traveler in the discipline of history, deserves special mention. "Monchi" not only housed me for several months, she provided great research tips and VI above all, friendship. Sara Silver and John Authers also provided treasured companionship (and housing) in Mexico City. Special thanks to Maribel, Paehe, Claudia, Lydia, Lety, Monica, Carlos, Pepe, Juanila, Dona Carmita, Magi, and Paulina for their friendship and support. Back in Amherst, friends and colleagues, many from the history department, provided continual support and a welcome distraction from writing. They include Christoph and Kristin Strobel, Julie Gallagher, Michael Simsik, Riek and Carla Goulet, Leo Maley, Heather Murray, Julia Saiidy-Bailey, Brian Bixby, Dinah Mayo, Babette Faehmel, Ann Jefferson, Germaine litienne and Riehard Gassan. Some of my firmest supporters are also my most beloved friends, and I extend my gratitude to Roger (Grande (a.k.a Chiel), Deb Kacanek, and Kay "Lob" Mann. All three of them regularly checked in to see how I was "holding up," and Deb and Roger, having themselves recently endured the presence of a "dissertation in tlie household," offered a special brand of sympathy. I have been blessed in this life with friends so dear, that 1 don't I know what would do--or who I would be--v\ilhoul them. I he same can be said about my family, for whom no words seem adequate to thank them. My parents, Patricia and Charles I iarper, and my sister. Tammy, are generous and loving in all they do, and have always been my most steadfast supporters. For their encouraging phone calls, uplifting visits, editorial suggestions, post-defense party, and, above all, their unflagging faith in me, I am humbled and grateful. My nephew Brendan, meanwhile, must be thanked for the welcome opportunity to play with castles, leiirn about sharks, snakes, and turtles, aiid yes, to watch Sponge Bob. vii No one has hccn closu lo tins ,),o,cU lh.,n I n.sa ( .nu.a ( ,l>,;,K-s. whose p.renis sl.uhe.l n, ( i.„ Klo-cra sehools. .nul whose g,;uuhno,her-u legendary l.gnre n, H,,hnu an.

HARPER, B.A., BOSTON UNIVERISTY M.A., NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY Ph.D., UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS AMHERST Directed by: Professor Katherine Bliss This dissertation is a regional study of Mexico during the reform phase of the Mexican Revolution. It analyzes the relationship between governing authorities and civil society in the southeastern state of Tabasco during the lengthy tenure of revolutionary strongman Tomas Garrido Canahal (1922-1935). Using a variety of previously untapped sources, this dissertation evaluates popular reactions to the governing mechanisms and cuHural radicalism of the f^arrUJi.stas. It assesses how revolutionary labor policies, educational initiatives, anticlerical campaigns, and other reform measures, were received by Tabasco's diverse population. Ultimately, it concludes that while the garhdistas were able to amass something of a popular following, the ideological intolerance and institutional rigidity of the Garrido State undermined the democratizing promise of its reformist agenda.

Universitaria, México D.F. 04510 rjpadilla@dictfi .unam.mx Resumen La evolución geológica del sureste mexicano es analizada en el contexto regional del Golfo de México que inicia su apertura con la fragmentación y dispersión de la Pangea. La sedimentación en esta depresión empieza con el depósito de lechos rojos continentales durante el Triásico Tardío y el Jurásico Temprano, después de lo cual, durante el Calloviano, se produce una invasión por aguas marinas provenientes del Pacífi co que cubren una extensa zona con poca circulación, poco tirante de agua y alta evaporación, condiciones que favorecen el depósito de grandes volúmenes de sal en la zona central de la cuenca. Desde el Jurásico Tardío hasta el Cretácico Tardío la sedimentación estuvo dominada por carbonatos, cambiando a clásticos a principios del Paleógeno a causa de la Orogenia Laramide, evento tectónico que formó la Sierra Madre Oriental. Durante el resto del Paleógeno la sedimentación clástica se fue alojando en grandes depocentros formados en el antepaís de la Sierra Madre Oriental y en las porciones sur y suroccidental del Golfo de México, en donde el Macizo de Chiapas aportó un gran volumen de sedimentos, mientras que sobre el Bloque Yucatán continuaba el depósito de carbonatos de plataforma somera.

  • The Civil Society-Driven Anti-Corruption Push in Mexico During the Enrique
    MEXICO CASE STUDY Rise and Fall: Mexican Civil Society’s Anti-Corruption Push in the Peña Nieto Years Roberto Simon AS/COA Anti Corruption Working Group Mexican Civil Society’s Anti-Corruption Push in the Peña Nieto Years Rise and Fall: Mexican Civil Society’s Anti-Corruption Push in the Peña Nieto Years Mexico City — “Saving Mexico” declared the cover of Time magazine, alongside a portrait of President Enrique Peña Nieto gazing confidently toward the future.1 Elected in 2012, Peña Nieto had been in power for only 15 months, yet already his bold reform agenda — dubbed the “Pacto por Mexico” (Pact for Mexico) — had made him a darling of global investors. Time noted that the president — “assisted by a group of young technocrats (including) Finance Minister Luis Videgaray and Pemex chief Emilio Lozoya” — was making history by breaking Mexico’s eight-decade state monopoly over the energy industry. “And the oil reform might not even be Peña Nieto’s most important victory,” the magazine said. There was “evidence” that Peña Nieto was about to “challenge Mexico’s entrenched powers.” While most investors focused on the deep regulatory changes under way, leading Mexican civil society organizations were looking at another critical promise in the Pacto por Mexico: fighting endemic corruption. “For centuries, corruption has been one of the central elements of the Mexican state (and) a constant in shaping the political system,” said Jorge Buendía, a prominent pollster and political analyst. A powerful governor from the 1960s to the 1980s allegedly once said that in Mexico “a poor politician is a poor politician.”2 And by the time Peña Nieto came to power, most in the country believed that things hadn’t really changed.

  • Mexico Report Wolfgang Muno, Jörg Faust, Martin Thunert (Coordinator)
    Mexico Report Wolfgang Muno, Jörg Faust, Martin Thunert (Coordinator) Sustainable Governance Indicators 2019 © vege - stock.adobe.com Sustainable Governance SGI Indicators SGI 2019 | 2 Mexico Report Executive Summary Considering Mexico’s experience with military and corporatist autocratic rule, the country has made significant progress over the last two decades with regard to electoral competition and its overall regulatory environment, including market-oriented reforms. Economic and political elites, as well as an increasing share of the middle-class, are technically well qualified, and have gained knowledge on how best to organize the country’s political, economic and social frameworks. Mexican policymakers at both the national and regional levels are well trained, internationally experienced and often equipped with high-level qualifications from Western universities. Mexico’s tertiary education system is increasingly competitive internationally as are several major firms, including an increasing number in the manufacturing sector. At the same time, Mexico suffers from structural problems that are uncommon among other OECD countries. These challenges mainly relate to the extremely unequal distribution of social benefits and services among the population, such as security and social opportunities. The resulting cleavages between geographic regions, rural and urban areas, and social classes are among the most pressing barriers to further socioeconomic progress. In addition, uneven state capacity, both geographically and across policy sectors, often undermines the effective and coherent implementation of policies. In comparison to most other OECD countries, Mexico’s GDP growth over the last decade was rather slow, the socioeconomic situation was marked by considerable inflation, the lowest tax-to-GDP ratio of any OECD country, and persistently high levels of poverty and inequality.

The excavations were expected to provide a large sample of feature-associated pottery for developing a preliminary ceramic sequence for the Chontalpa region of Tabasco. Although the excavations did not yield structures or other features with abundant pottery, they did contribute new information on mound formation processes and Formative pottery from Formative deposits reused in the Late Classic period. This report describes the preliminary results of the excavations.

ISBN 978-607-7758-37-2 978-607-7758-04-4 Impreso y hecho en México o v f- A d ó i'V Continuando con la serie de trabajos que integran la colección Danza y Música Tradicionales de Tabas­ co, que ofrece al público el Gobierno del Estado por medio del Instituto Estatal de Cultura (IEC), mucbo nos complace presentar en esta ocasión el cuarto volumen, dedicado a la Danza del Tigre de Puxcatán, municipio de Tacotalpa. La realización de la Danza del Tigre, así como su difusión en distintos ámbitos, pone de manifiesto el interés de las propias comunidades por preservar las diversas manifestaciones culturales que les dan rostro ante propios y extraños. Tanto el texto como el video documental registran las voces de los pobladores y los actores directamente involucrados; expresan sus sim­ bolismos y la importancia de la práctica y difusión de esta danza que forma parte de su vivencia cotidiana y su vida ritual. Este volumen, así como la colección en su conjunto, son fruto de la colaboración entre el gobierno ta- basqueño —por medio del IEC— y el gobierno de la República —por conducto de la Dirección General de Culturas Populares del Consejo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes— ; sin olvidar, por supuesto, a los habitantes de Puxcatán, que han hecho suyo este gran proyecto que fortalece nuestro acervo cultural.
