Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the Mexican government's projected image of prosperity and modernity in the years following World War II, workers who felt that Mexico's progress had come at their expense became increasingly discontented. From 1948 to 1958, unelected and often corrupt officials of STFRM, the railroad workers' union, collaborated with the ruling Institutionalized Revolutionary Party (PRI) to freeze wages for the rank and file. In response, members of STFRM staged a series of labor strikes in 1958 and 1959 that inspired a nationwide working-class movement. The Mexican army crushed the last strike on March 26, 1959, and union members discovered that in the context of the Cold War, exercising their constitutional right to organize and strike appeared radical, even subversive. Railroad Radicals in Cold War Mexico examines a pivotal moment in post-World War II Mexican history. The railroad movement reflected the contested process of postwar modernization, which began with workers demanding higher wages at the end of World War II and culminated in the railway strikes of the 1950s, a bold challenge to PRI rule. In addition, Robert F. Alegre gives the wives of the railroad workers a narrative place in this history by incorporating issues of gender identity in his analysis.

Download or read book Traqueros written by Jeffrey Marcos Garcilazo and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps no other industrial technology changed the course of Mexican history in the United States--and Mexico--than did the coming of the railroads. Tens of thousands of Mexicans worked for the railroads in the United States, especially in the Southwest and Midwest. Construction crews soon became railroad workers proper, along with maintenance crews later. Extensive Mexican American settlements appeared throughout the lower and upper Midwest as the result of the railroad. The substantial Mexican American populations in these regions today are largely attributable to 19th- and 20th-century railroad work. Only agricultural work surpassed railroad work in terms of employment of Mexicans. The full history of Mexican American railroad labor and settlement in the United States had not been told, however, until Jeffrey Marcos Garcílazo's groundbreaking research in Traqueros. Garcílazo mined numerous archives and other sources to provide the first and only comprehensive history of Mexican railroad workers across the United States, with particular attention to the Midwest. He first explores the origins and process of Mexican labor recruitment and immigration and then describes the areas of work performed. He reconstructs the workers' daily lives and explores not only what the workers did on the job but also what they did at home and how they accommodated and/or resisted Americanization. Boxcar communities, strike organizations, and "traquero culture" finally receive historical acknowledgment. Integral to his study is the importance of family settlement in shaping working class communities and consciousness throughout the Midwest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Railway Revolution in Mexico The first charter for a railway in Mexico was granted in 1837. It covered the distance between the City of Mexico and Vera Cruz, with a branch to Puebla. But the project involved in this concession was not carried out. Several years later, however, under a new charter, a railway connecting these cities was built, and for many years, while it controlled the traffic between the capital and the principal port of the Gulf coast, it possessed economic advantages which no other Mexican railway has had. The early movement was not prophetic of an early development; the greater part of the existing railways of Mexico have been built in the last two decades. At present they constitute a well-planned, well-equipped, and efficiently manned system of rapid transportation, which embraces 6,687 miles of track, operates 632 locomotives, 1,032 passenger cars, 11,331 freight cars, and reaches all of the important centers of population. The notes embraced in the following pages were made, with the exception of a few paragraphs, during a vacation journey extending over nearly all the railway lines of Mexico, and they are here printed with no essential modification of the form in which they were originally set down.
