Book Description:

In 1910 insurgent leaders crushed the Porfirian dictatorship in Mexico, but in the years that followed fought among themselves, until a nationalist consensus produced the 1917 Constitution. This in turn provided the basis for a reform agenda that transformed Mexico. The civil war and the reforms that followed receive new and insightful attention in this book. These essays commemorate the centennial of the outbreak of the revolution.
