Winner of the 1999 Michael C. Meyer Manuscript Prize!This new book examines the social protests of popular groups in urban Mexico during and after the Mexican Revolution and also shows how the revolution inspired women to become activists in these movements.Andrew Grant Wood's wellresearched narrative focuses specifically on the complex negotiation between elites and popular groups over the issue of public housing in postrevolutionary Veracruz, Mexico. Wood then compares the Veracruz experience with other tenant movements throughout Mexico and Latin America. He analyzes what the popular groups wanted, what they got, how they got it, and how the changes wrought by the revolution facilitated their actions.Grassroots organizing by houserenters in Veracruz began at a time of 'multiple sovereignty' when ruling elites found themselves in a process of regime change and political realignment. As the movement took shape, tenants expanded their opportunities through a dynamic repertoire of public demonstration, direct action, networking, and constant negotiation with landlords and public officials. During the height of the movement, protesters forced revolutionary elites to respond by requiring them either to negotiate, coopt, and/or repress members of independent grassroots organizations in order to maintain their rule.The tenant movements demonstrate how ordinary women and men contributed to the remaking of state and civil society relations in postrevolutionary Mexico. This book analyzes the critical roles that women played as leaders and as rankandfile agitators to keep the movements alive.The author has used a wide variety of primary sources to provide a vibrant portrayal of these urban social protesters. On a larger scale, this book shows that the voices of the urban poor were able to become part of the revolutionary dialogue and ideology. While others have highlighted the role of rural folk such as the Zapatistas, this work allows readers to appreciate the urban side of the popular movement.Revolution in the Street is a valuable resource on the Mexican Revolution, modern Mexico, and the urban history of Latin America.
