Los orígenes de la industria petrolera en México, 1900 - 1925

Forging the Tortilla Curtain: Cultural Drift and Change along the United States-Mexico Border from the Spanish Era to the Present
Few have attempted to construct such a broad and sweeping treatment of this immense historical subject. Yet Thomas Torrans, in this ambitious project, gives the reader a panorama of borderlands history that, while general enough to keep the reader’s focus, is also rich enough in detail to provide an in-depth understanding of the region’s complex social, cultural, political, and economic dimensions. In the process, Torrans provides keen insight in…

Central to this policy was the role played by American trade unions, which cooperated with US government agencies in providing financial and logistical support for Mexican trade unionists who complied with state development policy. The interests of American labor leaders, US policymakers and Mexican modernizin…

Wobblies and Mexican Workers in Mining and Petroleum, 1905–1924
The Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), or “Wobblies”, represented a transitional stage in Mexican labor movement history. The Wobblies enjoyed support from workers because their philosophy corresponded to the Mexican labor movement's deeply-rooted anarchosyndicalist traditions. While cooperating with Mexican radical labor organizations, the IWW advocated workers' control, better pay, conditions, and union recognition. In mining and petroleum,…
