Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book passionately argues for a political, social, and economic revolution in Mexico. The author, an active participant in revolutionary movements, writes to his fellow citizens to clarify the issues of greatest importance to the health of their new nation. In particular, he emphasizes a radical transformation in land ownership. The author contends that the powerful haciendasâ"massive private estates that have controlled Mexican agriculture for centuriesâ"must be dismantled and redistributed to the people. The Indigenous population, especially, has been exploited by the haciendas and their well-connected owners. This exploitation is a great injustice that must be corrected. More broadly, the author proposes that a sound economy must be based on individual smallholders farming their own plots. The author provides a detailed plan for a transition to such an economy, including a discussion of the challenges that such an ambitious project will inevitably face. The author also explores the need for increased educational opportunities and improved infrastructure, especially in rural areas. Mexico's future, the author argues, rests on a fair distribution of both land and knowledge. This book provides a vivid snapshot of the social and economic struggles of turn-of-the-century Mexico, and it offers a bold, provocative vision for a better future for the Mexican people.
