Resumen

MENDEZ LARA, Francisco Iván. The Silent Campaign. General Pablo González Garza in the Presidential Elections of 1920. a Look from the Press. Estud. hist. mod. contemp. Mex [online]. 2019, n.57, pp.163-206.  Epub 30-Abr-2020. ISSN 0185-2620.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iih.24485004e.2019.57.69507.

This article analyzes the role played in the 1920 presidential succession by one of the most important generals of the Mexican Revolution, Pablo González Garza. This military man was one of the natural candidates -along with Álvaro Obregón- to succeed Venustiano Carranza due to the political ascendancy he had won during the armed struggle. At the beginning of his campaign he opted for a legalistic attitude, but silent and parsimonious. Later, due to the support that Carranza offered the engineer Ignacio Bonillas to occupy the most coveted chair in the nation, opted to agree with Obregon and occupy the capital of the country in May 1920 but finally resigned his candidacy due to the impossibility of success. Through the use of little-examined sources, such as the newspaper El Heraldo de México, El Monitor Republicano and México Nuevo, are analyzed the campaign, the platform (Liga Democrática) and the position of the gonzalista press in the electoral conjuncture, issues that have not been studied until now, even forgotten, due to the triumph of Grupo Sonora.
