CIVILIAN POLITICIANS IN THE LAND OF GENERALS. THE COMPETITION FOR GOVERNMENT IN SONORA, 1929-1943

Abstract

The objective of this article is to identify civil actors who began their political
careers between 1929 and 1943, to elucidate what made possible the transition
from governments presided over by veteran generals of the Revolution to
governments made up of civilian political professionals in tune with the national
context, establishing a generational change whose members were defined as
civilians, who presented themselves as “technicians dedicated to national
redemption through knowledge and loyalty to the president”.
