Industry and Revolution - Social and Economic Change in the Orizaba Valley, Mexico

Informationen zum Autor Aurora Gómez-Galvarriato is Professor of Economic History at CIDE (Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económicas) and head of the Archivo General de la Nación de México, Mexico’s national public records office. Zusammenfassung Industrial workers, not just peasants, played an essential role in the Mexican Revolution. Tracing the introduction of mechanized industry into the Orizaba Valley, Aurora Gómez-Galvarriato argues convincingly that the revolution cannot be understood apart from the Industrial Revolution, and thus provides a fresh perspective on both transformations.
