Dictadura sanitaria, educación y propaganda higiénica en el México Revolucionario, 1917--1934 (2005)

unapi

This work aims to study the so-called Mexican health dictatorship, whose legal basis was established with the promulgation of the Political Constitution in 1917, but which maintained itself more as a discourse than as a practice. Instead of authoritarian politics, hygiene education and promotion were used as means of regenerating the Mexican people and leading the nation along the path of progress and civilization. This paper intends to show the importance given to hygiene campaigns between 1917 and 1934 by the regime that emerged from the Mexican Revolution (1910-1917).
