JIMENEZ MARTINEZ, Alejandro Arturo. Mexican Communists' Discourse on National History during the Cárdenas Administration. Secuencia [online]. 2007, n.69, pp.85-114. ISSN 2395-8464.  https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i69.1019.

This article attempts to describe the historical discourse developed by the Mexican Communist Party (PCM). Particular emphasis is placed on the influence of this discourse in the popular front's tactics, adopted by the Communist International and the PCM itself from 1934 on-wards. It first describes the tactics employed by the International Communist operating its sections throughout the world and then describes the emergence of the popular front's tactics and the importance of the latter for Mexican communists during the Cárdenas era. This is used to explain the views spread by Mexican communists in the 1930s about the process and of key players in Mexican national history. It also explains how reflections on national history were shaped when the PCM supported the Cárdenas regime.

Palavras-chave : Communist International; popular front; bourgeois democratic revolution; Mexican Communist Party; Cardenismo.
