«Biografía del poder» is the historical essay by Enrique Krauze, published by Tusquets Editores S.A. in paperback (552 pages, in Spanish).
The work examines the Mexican Revolution (1910-1940) and the tension between Mexico's traditional culture—indigenous, Catholic, and Spanish—and its vocation for modernity. Krauze portrays the caudillos who led it: Madero, Zapata, Villa, Carranza, Obregón, Calles, and Cárdenas, charismatic figures with a messianic vocation to liberate and redeem the people.
Second volume of the «Trilogía histórica de México», preceded by «Siglo de caudillos» and followed by «La presidencia imperial»; number 207 in the Andanzas collection.
For readers interested in the history of Mexico, the Mexican Revolution, and biographies of its political leaders.
