FLORES SORIANO, Aymara. Supplicants and Citizens with Rights: Parents in the Federal Districts Federal High Schools (1932-1939). Secuencia [online]. 2016, n.94, pp.181-209. ISSN 2395-8464. https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i94.1349.
This article analyzes the methods and arguments used by parents in Mexico City to fulfil their children's right to a high school education in post-revolutionary Mexico. Empirical data was collected from the correspondence between parents and the educational authorities, pupils' personal files, newspaper articles and editorials published in the national press, and official speeches transcribed in the Secretariat of Public Education's Reports. In terms of social history, the exchanges between parents and state officials are interpreted as citizenship practices framed in a continuum that ranges from entreaties to demands for the social right to education. From these positions, negotiations were conducted with the state which, in some cases such as the lack of monetary resources or infrastructure, revealed a certain weakness in its institutions.
