SMITH, Michael M.  y  DURAND, Jorge. Kansas City's "El Cosmopolita" (1914-1919): A Newspaper for Mexicans. Frontera norte [online]. 2001, vol.13, n.26, pp.7-30. ISSN 2594-0260.

The Mexican weekly newspaper El Cosmopolita was published in Kansas City in the 1910's. It is a magnificent example of Mexican journalistic production in the United States as well as an inexhaustible source of information for researchers interested in Mexico-United States migration themes. This article aims to do an analysis on the publication, its political orientation, on a key moment in national life, and the clues offered to know and understand Kansas City Mexican community, which played a preponderant role as a re-distributor center for the Mexican work force in the United States.
