ACEVEDO RODRIGO, Ariadna. Between the municipal legacy and the advance of the federal government: schools in the Northern Sierra of Puebla, 1922-1942. Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2015, vol.36, n.143, pp.51-84. ISSN 2448-7554.

This text examines the continuous presence of municipal schools and constraints on the expansion of federal schools in Puebla's Northern Sierra region (1922-1942), emphasizing the importance of local resources for schooling. Federal schools were less numerous in more remote areas but more monolingual in indigenous languages, and functioned only intermittently, in contrast to municipal schools and those supported by "voluntary donations" by local populations that complemented educational opportunities.
