Forging Mexico: 1821-1835 - Paperback

by Timothy E. Anna (Author)

No struggle has been more contentious or of longer duration in Mexican national history than that between a centripetal power in the capital and the centrifugal federalism of the Mexican states. Much as they do in the United States, such tensions still endure in Mexico, despite the centralizing effect of the Mexican Revolution of 1910-20.
