MACHLER TOBAR, Ernesto; ROMERO, José Rubén  y  CASTELLANOS, Rosario. BETWEEN ENTELECHY AND MYTH: THE BETRAYAL OF THE MEXICAN REVOLUTION AND ITS LAND REFORM. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2012, n.15, pp.137-168. ISSN 1900-5407.

Two main demands made during the 1910 Mexican revolution were the return of lands stolen from the Indians and farmers, as well as a comprehensive land reform. Notwithstanding, once the 1917 Constitution was proclaimed, the land reform was carried out very slowly. I analyze this betrayal of the revolution as depicted in journalistic documents of the time (Reed, Flores Magón), testimonies (most notably Pedro Martínez, Juan Pérez Jolote), as well as the huge literary production about the revolution, especially the novels (Azuela, Campobello, Castellanos, Romero, Rulfo).

Palabras clave : Mexican Revolution; Land Reform; Journalism; Testimony; Novel.
