Other Mexicos: Essays on Regional Mexican History, 1876-1911

Examined in this volume is the neglected field of Mexican history at the regional level during Porfirio D az's long rule. The panorama of regional perspectives and center-periphery relationships includes essays on eight states that combine original research and synthesis. These chapters present political, economic, and social developments in specific regions, based on long-ignored archival materials and new points of view. An introductory chapter gives an overview of the period, and the final two chapters respectively indicate promising opportunities for additional research and provide a selection of suggested readings.Benjamin, Thomas is the author of 'Other Mexicos: Essays on Regional Mexican History, 1876-1911' with ISBN 9780826307552 and ISBN 0826307558.
