This article analyzes the elements of modernity that were transmitted through women to middle-class families in Mexico City during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The concepts of modernity and home economics are reviewed in two books on formal education and in three newspapers of the time, to analyze the role of women as active and functional promoters of the principles of modernity that the State systematically managed and encouraged through formal and informal education.
