Vicente Lombardo Toledano was the founder of numerous labour union
organisations in Mexico and Latin America between the 1920s to the
1960s. He was not only an organiser but also a broker between the
unions, the government, and business leaders, able to disentangle
difficult conflicts. He cooperated closely with the governments of
Mexico and other Latin American nations and worked with the
representatives of the Soviet Union when he considered it useful.
As a result he was alternately seen as a government stooge or a
communist, even though he was never a member of the party or of the
Mexican government administration. Daniela Spenser's is the first
biography of Lombardo Toledano based on his extensive private
papers, on primary sources from European, Mexican and American
archives, and on personal interviews. Her even-keeled portrayal of
the man counters previous hagiographies and/or vilifications.
