FERNANDEZ FERNANDEZ, Iñigo. Ups and Downs of an American in Mexico: The Case of Paul Hudson (1896-1921). Secuencia [online]. 2018, n.101, pp.107-135. ISSN 2395-8464. https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i101.1457.
This article focuses on Paul Hudson, a key figure in the North American colony in Porfirian Mexico that has barely been studied in our country. Through the analysis of hemerographic testimonies of the time, we attempt to show that Hudson managed to consolidate an image of an upstanding citizen in the country as a result of the services he rendered to Porfirio Díaz’s regime through the newspaper The Mexican Herald, his participation in businesses organized by Mexican and North American capitals and his collaboration in philanthropic projects. We will also explain that his loyalty to the Porfirian regime, rejection of the Mexican Revolution and support for the US invasion of the country led to his decline as a public figure and his subsequent departure from the country.
