GRANJA CASTRO, Josefina. Schooling processes at the beginning of the 20th century: Rudimentary education in Mexico. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2010, vol.32, n.129, pp.64-83. ISSN 0185-2698.
The schooling of the masses has been a public affair that took up the attention of intellectuals, politicians and educators during the transition period between the 19th and the 20th Century. The introduction of compulsory education represented an important, although unsatisfactory step: more than 50 percent of the population in school age was still illiterate and the educational offer was greater in the towns in a country where 70 percent of the population lived in the country. This process of building up the public schooling of masses shows a thinking curve that makes necessary to rethink the conceptions about "the people" and the ways to connect it with the development of the nation. The article focuses on the rudimentary education of the beginnings of the 20th Century and proposes that this schooling experiment was the starting point for a "relative breaking-of" within the constellation of ideas about who is the people and how to educate it between the end of the 19th Century and the rural school that comes up affer the Mexican Revolution.
