And following massacres of students at peaceful protests in 1968 and 1971, one-party control of Mexican politics dissipated as well. The ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party struggled to recover its legitimacy, but instead saw its support begin to erode. In the following decades, Mexico's middle classes ended up shaping the history of economic and political crisis, facilitating the emergence of neo-liberalism and the transition to democracy.Middle classPolitical activityMexicoHistory20th centuryMexicoEconomic conditions1970-1982MexicoEconomic conditions1982-1994MexicoEconomic policy1970-1994MexicoPolitics and government1970-1988Middle classPolitical activityHistory305.5/509720904Walker Louise E.1977-1496880MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786266703321Waking from the dream3733599UNINA
