PULIDO GARCIA, David Antonio. The role of the Local Student Congress in the initiatives for the Latin American unity of the Constitutionalism (1916-1918). Latinoamérica [online]. 2017, n.65, pp.133-169. ISSN 2448-6914.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cialc.24486914e.2017.65.56898.

A diplomatic and intellectual initiative for Latin America was conceived by Venustiano Carranza’s government. It involved the designation of some prominent university students as grant holders in Mexican legations in five South American countries (Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Brazil and Colombia). This program was aimed at promoting dialogue and cultural exchange between young Mexican intellectuals and those from the countries that hosted them. This article is intended to look into the way this initiative was conceived and launched. The hypothesis is that this effort was an important part of the policy created by the constitutionalist government, intended to reach Latin American integration.
