5 The Post WW I World: Latin America

6 Latin America Latino elites and foreign investors profited from sales to the Europeans during the WWI. Their economies depended on sales to wealthy European nations and the US. As an educated middle class grew in many Latino nations, they demanded more rights and access to the government. 

7 Latino Self-Reliance*
Latino nations began showing remarkable pride in their country and people in the early 20th century. They realized how vulnerable they were to changes in the world economy:

8 Hacienda: Large, wealthy Latin American plantations and ranches.
Cash crops In Mexico, the upper class and foreign investors owned most of the land, and most of Mexico’s wealth. Mexico’s peasants (peones) were indebted to the land-owners (encomienda) Could not leave land until debts were paid Children inherited the debt of their parents Suffered from bad health and no chance of education.

9 Riots become rebellion*
Violence broke out across Mexico. An elite, liberal reformer, Francisco Madero, demanded free elections in 1910. (same answer for both blanks on this page) Dictator, Porfirio Diaz, resigned when he could not control the violence.  Free elections were held and Madero was elected president in 1911.  He is soon assassinated.

10 Popular Revolution* Two maverick revolutionaries run their parts of Mexico, and try to overthrow Huerta. Emiliano Zapata Francisco Villa,   It is a popular rebellion, fought mostly by peasants, men, women, and children. Both revolutionary leaders were eventually assassinated by another leader, Venustiano Carranza.

11 1917 Constitution Nationalization:
right of the government to take control of lands and natural resources. Church lands made “property of the nation” Foreign-owned lands in Mexico: Mexican government will take control of all petroleum in the 1930s.

12 Universal male suffrage Women’s rights Land reform

13 Nationalization 1930s, Lazaro Cardenas, is perhaps Mexico’s foremost reformer president: His government took control of (nationalized) all petroleum. American and British oil companies’ ownership was removed but compensated beginning PEMEX It boosted Mexican pride: Mexico was becoming more economically independent.

14 PRI* the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI).
First groups represented by it included: (4) Business leaders Military leaders Peasants Workers Still the most powerful political party in Mexico.

17 The “Norteamericanos”:*
The United States had been policing Latin America actively since Theodore Roosevelt declared the ______ “Roosevelt Corollary”

18 Good Neighbor Policy: In the 1930s, US presidents, Herbert Hoover and Franklin Delano Roosevelt promised to lessen US interference in and promote respect of Latin American affairs.

19 Good Neighbor Policy: Some US actions, under Franklin Roosevelt, to promote better relations with Latino nations in the 1930s included: (3) He ordered US troops removed from Haiti and Nicaragua He revoked the Platt Amendment, freeing the Cuban government He supported Mexican nationalization of petroleum Aided in compensating US oil companies

20 Political nationalism:
Many Latinos sought government that worked for Latin American needs. Many turned to authoritarian leadership— it would be strict, It would protect the interests of the local people. It worked more for the rich than the majority poor

21 Economic nationalism:
Latino nations focused on local control of their economies. Developed home industries.

22 Economic nationalism:
How? (5) Local entrepreneurs started local businesses Poor distribution of wealth prevented the scale of local investment needed to be successful Few people with money to spend, many people barely surviving month to month. Direct government investment of key businesses Raised tariffs to protect home businesses = “PROTECTIONISM” Worked to reduce or eliminate imports Many resources nationalized (taken from foreign control)

23 Cultural nationalism:
Nations like Mexico began to accept their multi-cultural heritage. Indian and African facets became acceptable and were mixed with Western ways. Mexico saw a renaissance of mural art, based on Aztec and Maya styles.
