-
Published:April 2015
The second chapter takes a close look at the construction of a distinctive working-class cult around Benito Juárez and penny press efforts to turn the controversy over Francisco Bulnes’s critical biography of the liberal hero into a belated martyrdom which sanctified the former president (who died in bed) and highlighted his differences with the Porfirian regime.
