Abstract

GONZALEZ SALINAS, Omar Fabián. The patriotic speech and the propaganda apparatus that support the oil's expropriation during the cardenism. Estud. hist. mod. contemp. Mex [online]. 2016, n.52, pp.88-107. ISSN 0185-2620.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ehmcm.2016.06.003.

This article shows that once that Lázaro Cárdenas' government ordered the oil industry's expropriation, it turns to disseminate a patriotic speech and propaganda as strategies to mobilize the population on supporting this action. Therefore this article moves away from the idea in which the expropriation had only a spontaneous social support. It shows that the mobilization was promoted and leaded by the State since 1938 until 1940, when Cárdenas' government ended. Also, the arguments deepen the beginning of the bond between the oil and the national identity from Mexicans.

Keywords : Cardenism; Oil expropriation; Patriotic speech; Propaganda; Social movilization.
