"Rural Revolt in Mexico" is a historical investigation of how
subaltern political activity engages imperialism, capitalism, and
the United States. In this volume, Daniel Nugent has gathered a
group of leading scholars whose work examines the relationship of
revolts by peasants and Indians in Mexico to the past century of
U.S. intervention--from the rural rebellions of the 1840s through
the 1910 revolution to the 1994 uprising in Chiapas.
Through their studies of social movements and popular mobilization
in the Mexican countryside, the contributors argue for
understanding rural revolts in terms of the specific historical
contexts of particular regions and peoples, as well as the broader
context of unequal cultural, political, and economic relations
between Mexico and the United States. Exploring the connections
between external and internal factors in social movements, these
essays reveal the wide range of organized efforts through which
peasants and Indians have struggled to shape their own destiny
while confronted by the influence of U.S. capital and military
might. Originally published as a limited edition in 1988 by the
Center for U. S.-Mexican Studies, this volume presents a pioneering
effort by Latin Americanist scholars to sympathetically embrace and
enrich work begun in "Subaltern Studies" between 1982 and 1987 by
projecting it onto a different region of historical experience.
This revised and expanded edition includes a new introduction by
Daniel Nugent and an extensive essay by Adolfo Gilly on the recent
Chiapas uprising.
