LISBONA GUILLEN, MIGUEL. VIRILE AND SPORTS YOUTH: THE REGENERATED ‘NEW MEN’ CHIAPANECOS. Tzintzun. Rev. estud. históricos [online]. 2020, n.71, pp.117-147.  Epub July 30, 2020. ISSN 2007-963X.

The governments that emerged from the Mexican Revolution extended regenerative speeches towards the creation of a new man. A project that had, in the enterprising men and active young men, their desired architects to transform the country, as long as they managed to highlight their virile characteristics in front of their counterpart men, distinguished by physical weakness and passivity. Chiapas was no stranger to those discourses where the masculine ideal, normatively desired, is exemplified with the intention of disciplining the body through measures considered regenerative such as education, work and physical activity.

Keywords : masculinity; youth; body; Chiapas; Mexican Revolution.
