Challenging the assumption that rural peoples naturally share a sense of cultural solidarity and political consciousness because of their subordinate social status, the author maintains that the particular understanding of popular-class unity conveyed by the term \u003ci\u003ecampesino\u003c\/i\u003e originated in the interaction of post-revolutionary ideologies and agrarian militancy during the 1920s and 1930s. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book uses oral histories, archival documents, and partisan newspapers to trace the history of one movement born of this dynamic--\u003ci\u003eagrarismo\u003c\/i\u003e in the state of Michoacán. The author argues that the interaction of grassroots militancy and political mobilization from the top meant that the rural populace entered the political sphere, not as indigenous people or rural proletarians, but as a class-like social category of campesinos. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher R.
