La relación México-Polonia en la mirada de la burocracia mexicana en el extranjero (1928-1935)

Abstract

By examining the political reports written by the representatives of Mexico in Warsaw, the article studies the actions of the Mexican bureaucracy abroad to promote a positive image of the Latin American country. I argue that the reports prepared by these agents of the State were informed by the Mexican experience itself on its way to political centralization and State formation after the Revolution of 1910. At first I address the context in which Mexico and Poland established diplomatic relations. Then I use that context as a backdrop to the following two sections, where I discuss the ways in which Mexican representatives sought to promote a positive image of Mexico in interwar Europe, and particularly in Poland, in two specific areas: promotion of migratory flows and a favourable image of the country.
