The Mexican Constitution (of the United Mexican States – Constituci\u00f3n Pol\u00edtica de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos) is proclaimed. This is the current Constitution in Mexico. It was the first constitution in history to include social rights, two years before the German Weimar Constitution. After seven tumultuous years of revolution, Mexican President Venustiano Carranza proclaimed the modern Mexican Constitution, which enshrined the restitution of land to the local population, the separation of church and state, and the initiation of significant reforms in the economic and educational sectors. Approved by a constitutional assembly, this politically progressive document combined revolutionary demands for agrarian reform with advanced social theory. In reality, it took decades for many of these radical reforms to be implemented. In 1920 Carranza was deposed and assassinated, and Mexico only stabilized after World War II, when industry became a mainstay of the economy and Miguel Alem\u00e1n inaugurated an uninterrupted series of non-military governments with his presidency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
