RIBERA CARBO, A. May Day in México city at the time of the revolution. Andes [online]. 2006, n.17, pp.329-350. ISSN 1668-8090.

Among the traditions established by workers all over the world, the most succesful one is May Day, which served to bring together workers of different ideological characteristics, and to create a social and class conscience like no other one. In Mexico the commemoration started late. The first massive demonstration was organized in Mexico City in 1913 by the Casa del Obrero Mundial founded a year before and connected to anarcho-syndicalist thought. It was with this demonstration that Mexican workers began to gain their own space in the capital city and became a key element in the political scene of the Mexican Revolution.
