Resumen
HERNANDEZ DAVILA, Carlos Arturo. “Giving the Appearance of Virtue to Vice”. Public Discourse and Hidden Discourse in the Working-Class Towns of Monte Bajo, State of Mexico. Hist. graf [online]. 2021, n.57, pp.17-57. Epub 03-Jul-2021. ISSN 1405-0927. https://doi.org/10.48102/hyg.vi57.387.
Based on James C. Scott’s proposal regarding the tension between public discourse/hidden discourse, this text aims to account for said tension in the town-factories of the socalled Monte Bajo (today Nicolás Romero, State of Mexico), starting from the analysis of materials available in various documentary sources (archives, workers’ press, “bourgeois” press, oral testimonies). The tension between both discourses and their various expressions (in gestures as well as in gossip, concealment, simulations, etc.) not only shaped the relationships between employers and workers, but also between the latter in their daily coexistence, inside and outside the workplace factory, creating a sophisticated “art of resistance”.
