RUIZ VELASCO BARBA, Rodrigo. EN TORNO A DISCURSOS Y REPRESENTACIONES DEL NACIONALISMO CATÓLICO EN MÉXICO. Rev. hist. am. argent. [online]. 2018, vol.53, n.1, pp.203-233. ISSN 2314-1549.

Mexican nationalism was originally linked to religious discourse. After a first phase of rupture before the Spanish monarchy, where it turned to the anti-Spanish Black Legend, the conservative side founded by Lucas Alaman started a wave of nationalism designed to counter the revolutionary State, with its own defining features, although not without variations among its exponents. Among these variations were Hispanism and Hispanoamericanism, Guadalupanism, the aversion to the US and Protestantism, the vindication of national heroes in opposition to those of liberal historiography, and sometimes the idea that Mexico has a special mission to fulfill within the divine plan.
