AVILA ESPINOSA, Felipe Arturo. The Discussion in the Electoral College of the Chamber of Deputies: Legality versus Revolutionary Legitimacy in the XXVII Legislature. Hist. mex. [online]. 2024, vol.73, n.4, pp.1663-1709.  Epub 22-Abr-2024. ISSN 2448-6531.  https://doi.org/10.24201/hm.v73i4.4762.

This article analyzes the discussions in the Preliminary Councils of the XXVII Legislature regarding the legitimacy of popular representatives, a discussion in which two political blocks confronted each other: that of the presumed deputies close to President Venustiano Carranza, known as the renovators, and the opposition block, known as the radicals, some of whom were close to Álvaro Obregón or Pablo González, two of the most important Constitutionalist leaders. This discussion reveals the emergent fractures in the triumphant current of the Mexican Revolution, which could first be seen in the Constitutional Congress of 1916-1917, a divide that would hold over into the XXVII Legislature and the one that followed. This division provoked fierce political struggles between congress and the Carranza administration and reduced the latter’s efficacy, as several of its most important initiatives, such as the law on the suspension of guarantees to combat the rebellions against his government, were blocked by the opposition, as they constituted the majority legislative block.
