The Agrarian Dispute: The Expropriation of American-Owned Rural Land in Postrevolutionary Mexico Paperback - 2008

by John Dwyer


From the rear cover

""The Agrarian Dispute" will force scholars to reconsider U.S.-Mexican relations during the Cardenas years. John J. Dwyer shows how powerful domestic and international events were affected by the actions of 'subalterns' and how Mexico, a relatively weak power, deftly bested the United States with creative diplomatic tactics. He also makes a convincing case that the U.S. response to Mexico's oil expropriation in 1938 was largely determined by the earlier controversy over the land confiscations."--Timothy J. Henderson, author of "The Worm in the Wheat: Rosalie Evans and Agrarian Struggle in the Puebla-Tlaxcala Valley of Mexico, 1906-1927"
