    Compare And Contrast Latin American Revolutions

    The revolutions that took place in the United States, France, Haiti, and Latin America were all influenced by one another. The main political idea was that of popular sovereignty. This was the idea that the authority to govern comes from the people. This strayed from the ideals that the right to govern comes from God or tradition. The main group that benefited from these revolutions was middle class white males; except in Haiti. Long term, the revolutions gave many groups the ammunition needed to fight for political rights they previously did not have.…

    Mexican Revolution

    There are several different economic, social, and political causes that credited to the start of the Mexican Revolution in 1910. In the second half of the eighteenth century to the start of the revolution in 1910, the economic base first started to show substantial growth but took a turn for the worse when foreign investors came into the scene. This caused a movement down hill to where the general working population where worried about what the future may hold. The same was happening in the worldwide economy. Social aspects of the Mexican Revolution can be attributed to the change of ownership of the land, which attributed to the weak social class structure, and the labor disputes that occurred because peoples’ revolt. Political causes to the Mexican Revolution can be related to the political workings of some of Mexico’s presidents and famous people that had involvement with the country. People like Porfirio Diaz, Benito Juarez, Francisco Madero, Emiliano Zapata, and many more all contributed somehow into the beginning the Mexican Revolution. With contribution from each spectrum of economics, social, politics, and the important events leading up to 1910, the Mexican Revolution became an important event in the history of Latin America that would leave a lasting impact for several years to come.…

    Mexican Revolution

    I believe the Mexican revolution of the 1910s was a war of the people, against the harsh rule of dictatorships. The role of Mexico’s leader quickly changed hands from Porfirio Diaz (1876-1911), to Francisco I. Madero (1911-1913), to Victoriano Huerta (1913-1914), and finally to Venustiano Carranza (1914-1920). It all started due to Diaz and his hunger for power and unwillingness to let go of it; he went as far as blaming the people by claiming the indigenous and mixed people were “practically subhuman, degenerate, apathetic, irresponsible, lazy, treacherous, superstitious… destined to be a slave race.” (Brenner, 1984, p. 9) Throughout next ten years revolutionaries, and their constructed armies, fought to free Mexico from foreign control and for the rights of the middle and peasant classes.…
