LADB Article Id: 074089 ISSN: 1060-4189 Mexico: Notes On Political Opposition by John Neagle Category/Department: General Published: Tuesday, October 25, 1988 Four political parties and dozens of leftist and populist political organizations joined together in the National Democratic Front that was formed to support Cuauhtemoc Cardenas in the July 6 election. Their ideological differences were smoothed over, result of the stature and prestige of Cardenas. The political leader is the son of a revered former president, and led a dissident faction of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), before breaking with the ruling party last year. At present, coalition is seeking to consolidate its election gains, including 137 seats in the 500-member Chamber of Deputies and four in the 64-member Senate, and establish a permanent presence and structure. An example of the ideological diversity of the Cardenas alliance is seen in the differences between the Socialist Party and the Authentic Party of the Mexican Revolution. Until it endorsed Cardenas, the Authentic Party was widely perceived as a "satellite" of the PRI with no program other than nationalism.

  • The Mexican Communist Pary
    THE MEXICAN COMMUNIST PARTY The following interview with Enrique Semo took place at the end of June after he had spoken at a reception in Wollongong. It took upborne of the points he raised at the meeting and others which had come up when Semo, a leading figure in the Communist Party of Mexico, was a guest at the Communist Party of Australia’s National Congress in mid- June. The Mexican Communist Party is currently emerging from a period of illegality imposed after the mass struggles of 1968. Australians will recall the shootings and jailings by the Mexican authorities prior to the Olympic Games. Half the Central Committee of the Communist Party was jailed during the illegal period and the party had only 2,000 members (out of a population of 70 million). Since legality, membership has leapt to around 15,000. The political problems involved in absorbing new cadres are compounded by the class composition of the party. The Communist Party established, or influenced the establishment of, all the major trade unions in Mexico. Their positions of influence were eroded by reformist/populist forces and the long period of decline, discussed in the interview, witnessed a severe erosion of the party’s working class base. The new influx of members is predominantly from the middle class and the party still faces the task of rebuilding its industrial base. Mexico faces a future of immense potential development based on oil reserves which make it the “Saudi Arabia of the Americas". In addition, there are huge proven reserves of uranium. The movement against nuclear power has not yet impacted Mexican political life.

  • Making Revolution in Rural Cold War Mexico
    “A Revolution of the Poor, for the Poor and by the Poor” Making Revolution in Rural Cold War Mexico Alexander Aviña L’auteur Alexander Aviña is an Associate Professor of History in the School of Historical, Philosophical, and Religious Studies at Arizona State University. His book, Specters of Revolution: Peasant Guerrillas in the Cold War Mexican Countryside (Oxford University Press, 2014) was awarded the María Elena Martínez Book Prize in Mexican History for 2015 by the Conference on Latin American History. He has also published articles in the Journal of Iberian and Latin American Research, NACLA Report on the Americas, and the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Latin American History. His current research project explores the links between the political economy of narcotics, drug wars and state violence in 1960s and 70s Mexico. Abstract Recent publications on popular movements and armed struggle in post-1940 Mexico undermine state claims of exceptionalism within a Cold War Latin American context characterized by military dictatorships and undemocratic rule. In the impoverished, largely rural southwestern Mexican state of Guerrero, state violence and terror in response to reformist demands and movements based on the 1917 Constitution generated two separate rural guerrilla movements led by schoolteachers. Led by Lucio Cabañas, the Party of the Poor waged revolution for seven years beginning in the late 1960s. It would take a violent and brutal “Dirty War” to defeat the peasant guerrillas. This article explains how and why the revolutionary organization emerged and explores its radical visions for a Mexico “governed by the poor.” Key Words: Guerrilla; Guerrero; Campesino; Socialism; Lucio Cabañas; Party of the Poor.

Blancarte1 Оригинални научни рад El Colegio de México UDC: 329.13(72):272 Mexico Mónica C. Veloz Leija2 National Autonomous University of Mexico Mexico THE NATIONAL REVOLUTIONARY PARTY AND THE RELI- GIOUS QUESTION Abstract The National Revolutionary Party was founded in 1929 to win elections and to resolve conflicts between different political groups after the Mexican Revolu- tion. But it was also created in order to face the opposition of the Catholic hier- archy to the Constitution of 1917 and the measures that the revolutionary gov- ernments had established to “defanatize” the Mexican people and to limit the social influence and therefore the political power of the Catholic Church. In the past decades nevertheless, the PRI has evolved from initial anti-clerical and even anti-religious positions towards more respectful positions of religious freedom, in line with the logic of a State that considers itself to be plural and respectful of differences. On the other hand, party authorities do not always respect their liberal and revolutionary tradition, the secularism of the state and the principle of separation that guarantees the moral autonomy of individuals against corpo- rations. At times, the search for legitimacy generates political dependence and eventually leads to the imposition of the creeds and dogmas of majorities with respect to minorities of all kinds consequently eliminating the free will of broad sectors of the population that do not share those principles and expect the pro- tection and guarantee of their rights by the secular State.

  • Mexico 1968 Mechanisms of State Control Tlatelolco, the Pri and the Student Movement
    MEXICO 1968 MECHANISMS OF STATE CONTROL TLATELOLCO, THE PRI AND THE STUDENT MOVEMENT by Samuel David Wilton A THESIS Presented to the Department of History and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2014 An Abstract of the Thesis of Samuel David Wilton for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of History to be taken June 2014 Title: MEXICO 1968 MECHANISMS OF STATE CONTROL TLATELOLCO, THE PRI AND THE STUDENT MOVEMENT Approved:-------'~""'------------- Carlos Aguirre On October 2 1968, Mexican government troops fired on hundreds of unarmed student protestors at Ia Plaza de Las Tres Culruras in Mexico City, killing an unknown number of those gathered. The event illustrated a breakdown in Mexican politics, specifically in the legitimacy of the Partido Revolucionario Jnstitucional (the PRJ, for short). The party created its own brand of manufactured democracy, which allowed it to hold the Mexican presidency (under a variety of specific names) from 1929 to 2000. Using violence, generous media and union control, as well as other means, the PRJ fought against an upstart student movement. The government massacre on October 2, 1968 illustrated a breakdown in normal mechanisms of control, to which excessive violence was a response. Exceedingly effective in the short term, the massacre delegitimized the PRI in the long-term, and partially contributed to the election of a non-PRI president in 2000, according to many historians. This thesis proposes that in the understandable haste to condemn the Mexican government's actions the night of October 2, 1968, not enough attention is focused on the effectiveness of the violence in silencing student- to a certain degree, popular-resistance to the government.
