URESTI, Silvestre. Culture and Power in the Guaymas and Mazatlán Carnivals (XIX). Frontera norte [online]. 2017, vol.29, n.58, pp.71-93. ISSN 2594-0260.  https://doi.org/10.17428/rfn.v29i58.533.

Why did a wild carnival in ports of Sonora's Guaymas and Sinaloa's Mazatlan develop in the nineteenth century. The objective of this paper is to analyze the carnival and its relations with power. The conclusion is that a riotous carnival was a response to an equally wild society. Our argument is that the transgressive carnival was born of a lack of intermixing between foreign and local families, and representatives of the economic elite of the ports. Due to the social inequalities during the government of Porfirio Diaz, neither elite nor other social groups remained separate, but diversified their economic and cultural interests.
