Descrição
Resumo:This paper seeks to analyze the rebel movement  in Michoacán, led by José Inés Chávez García, and which reached its height between 1916 and 1918. From  a perspective  that includes social, political and military history, this essay seeks to describe the said movement,  which includes ingredients  such as simple banditry, regional rejection  of Carranza’s  control,  defense of the popular catholic religion against constitutionalist governmental decisions, as well as class struggles between Michoacanan  popular sectors and haciendas, large farms, and certain urban populations. The  analysis considers the relations between Chávez’s followers and rural communities, as well as the repercussions that the conflicts between political authorities  and state military men had on the rebellion.
