“…Foremost among those groups was the Partido Liberal Mexicano (PLM) led by Ricardo Flores Magon. 86 As the new constitution revealed, this was revolution from above. 77 Members of the PLM played prominent roles organizing strikes by copper miners in Cananea, Sonora, and Clifton-Morenci, Arizona, and in the 1905 to 1907 effort to reshape an AFL federal labor union in Laredo, Texas, into a citywide organization of all Mexican workers.…”

“…All this from a convention where there were only two trade unionists. 86 As the new constitution revealed, this was revolution from above. The new Confederacion Regional Obrera Mexicana (CROM), which arose out of the rubble of the 1916 repression and the hopes inspired by the new constitution, was closely allied to the Carranza government.…”

In 1898, the American Federation of Labor feared that colonial expansion would militarize the republic and undermine the living standards of American workers. Subsequent expansion of industrial production and of trade union membership soon replaced the fear of imperial expansion with an eagerness to enlarge the domain of American unions internationally alongside that of American business. In both Puerto Rico and Canada important groups of workers joined AFL unions on their own initiative. In Mexico, where major U.S. investments shaped the economy, anarcho-syndicalists enjoyed strong support on both sides of the border, and the path to union growth was opened by revolution. Consequently the AFL forged links there with a labor movement very different from itself. Unions in Mexico became tightly linked to their new government, while World War I drove the AFL's leaders into close collaboration with their own. The Pan-American Federation of Labor was more a product of diplomatic maneuvering than of class solidarity.

En este ensayo, se aborda el papel del equipo de primera división, los Jaguares, en el contexto de la realidad chiapaneca. La capacidad del futbol para crear símbolos que conformen “comunidades de identificación” e “integración de la diversidad” se analiza en dos vertientes, la de las transformaciones económicas, y en concreto del empresariado chiapaneco y, por otra parte, la condensación de las fragmentadas identidades locales hacia una posible identificación estatal mediante el equipo de los Jaguares.

“…In Tannenbaum's mind the chief result of the Revolution was spiritual: "a discovery by the Mexican people of their own dignity, a dignity which they were not conscious of possessing before, and which was not credited to them even by the philosophers drawn from their midst." 64 The frescoes of Diego Rivera, to whom the book was dedicated, were praised as representing the deepest aspirations of the Revolution. "It is perhaps not too much to say that as long as his paintings are allowed to remain on the public walls so that the common people can rediscover themselves in them, the Mexican Revolution will remain safe, at least as an ideal -permanent, as a dream to be achieved."…”

On April 19, 1914—two days before the seizure of Vera Cruz by United States marines—North American radicals gathered at Carnegie Hall in New York City to protest the expected use of force against Mexico by the administration of Woodrow Wilson. One of the speakers, William (“Big Bill”) Haywood of the Industrial Workers of the World, threatened a nationwide general strike should the United States go to war against Mexico, and the crowd approved a resolution condemning any act of armed intervention.But the Mexican crisis was not the only issue that aroused the crowd at Carnegie hall. A second resolution was approved which denounced the imprisonment of a young immigrant called Frank Tannenbaum, who had recently been sentenced to a year in the penitentiary for participating in an illegal assembly. On March 4 — his twenty-first birthday — Tannenbaum had led an “army of the unemployed” into the Roman Catholic Church of St. Alphonsus on West Broadway and had demanded shelter. His arrest that night and subsequent trial had become acause célèbreamong liberals and radicals who believed that he had been the victim of a miscarriage of justice.
