Additional text

Movements after Revolution uncovers new research about a forgotten chapter of the Mexican Revolution—how authentic labor and agrarian groups struggled in the decade after 1920 to unite under Communist leadership and pose an alternative path to the state-dominated Mexican Revolution. Rodriguez's passion for the topic is evident and brings this important story to light, emphasizing that, despite the difficulties faced by these movements in the face of emerging state power, their influence would be felt in the evolution of the revolution's official labor and agrarian organizations. This study is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of revolution in twentieth-century Latin America.
