ANDREWS, Catherine. Guidelines “For the Success of Governments”. Rights in the First Mexican Constitutionalism (1821-1836). Estud. hist. mod. contemp. Mex [online]. 2019, n.57, pp.41-68.  Epub 24-Abr-2020. ISSN 0185-2620.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iih.24485004e.2019.57.68451.

This article discusses the recognition given to natural rights in the first Mexican Constitutions. It shows that the Mexicans debated two different models: the modern liberal model and the revolutionary ius naturalistic model. Law historiography often insists that this discussion originated in the 1842 Constituent Congress, or alternatively in the 1856 Constituent Congress. This text argues that the roots of this debate over rights had been present in Mexico since Independence in 1821.
