PULIDO ESTEVA, Diego. Sunday rest history in Mexico, 1880-1913. Estud. hist. mod. contemp. Mex [online]. 2016, n.52, pp.39-51. ISSN 0185-2620.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ehmcm.2016.09.001.

This article analyzes the formalization of Sunday rest in Mexico as a result of the outstanding but not exclusive pressure of trade employees, a sector that has been little visible in the historiography of labor which interlocution with commercial owners and local authorities, was supported by the press, mutual societies and churches of different denominations. It is considered that this measure was intended to dignify the leisure time while it was intended to discipline the weekly labor calendar in a process that shows synchronicity with similar experiences in the Iberian and Latin American world.
