La economía mexicana: Política y desarrollo

Esta obra es un estudio sobre la figura del juicio político, en ella se analizan tres casos en diferentes épocas de la historia de México: el primero durante la presidencia de Antonio López de Santa Anna; el segundo en la república restaurada, durante el mandato de Benito Juárez y el tercero durante la gestión de Álvaro Obregón, se estudian las coincidencias entre estos casos. Al final se realizan consideraciones acerca de la procedencia del juicio político contra integrantes de la Suprema Corte.

Los de abjo treats what is perhaps the saddest period in modern Mexican history, a period of aimless slaughter when a whole nation was plunged into strife by leaders who had few clear ideas of what they were striving for. The reader shares the same disillusionment that the author himself must have felt as he met leader after leader whose revolutionary zeal was merely a disguise for base passions and desires.

"Revisionist view of the traditional interpretation of 1923 revolt as a reaction against Obregón's imposition of Calles. Authors study four different regional revolts between 1923-24, all with different leaders and provoked by different causes: Rómulo Figueroa in Guerrero, Enrique Estrada in Jalisco, Guadalupe Sánchez in Veracruz, and Fortunato Maycotte in Oaxaca. Rebels failed because of a lack of central control or unifying program. Adolfo de la Huerta played only a 'decorative role' in the armed movement against Obregón"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
