a description that seems eerily familiar to the situation that's currently taking place in El Salvador. Beneath the polished veneer, tensions were brewing. Workers were organizing, journalists were risking their lives, teachers and lawyers and even wealthy landowners began to murmur about the need for reform. And in the countryside, those old communal memories refused to die.

Even after the land was taken, the land was remembered. By the turn of the 20th century, Diaz approached his 80s with no successor in sight and the people were getting fed up. Which brings us into the first phase of the Mexican Revolution. According to Ángel Capaletti, the author of Anarchism in Latin America and the main source of this episode, Francisco I. Madero wasn't quite a revolutionary.

In all honesty, he just wanted to tweak the status quo, to keep a free market but ban the re-election of presidents. He came from money. He was an upper-class intellectual, a believer in parliamentary democracy and in free markets. He read the Review Spirite religiously. It was a spiritualist journalism.

And he believed in a kind of metaphysical liberalism, where good governance and good intentions could steer history in the right direction. Madero's party, the Partido Democrata, was formed with a single, clear goal. Ending Porfirio Diaz's decades-long grip on power.

But to more radical forces, like Ricardo Flores Magón and the Partido Liberal Mexicano, or PLM, Madero's vision was nowhere near enough. Don't get fooled by the name, by the way. The PLM had some revolutionary credentials.

It started off as a simple, anti-clerical, anti-dictatorial party, but perhaps with the influence of North American and Spanish immigrant anarcho-syndicalists, it eventually took on a libertarian character, guided also in part by the ideological evolution of Malcolm himself. It was neither liberal nor truly a party in the end, but rather a truly revolutionary libertarian organization.

We'll get back to Magón's story in a second. But the point is, when Magón was calling for social revolution, land redistribution, and workers' control of production, Madero merely wanted electoral reform. He had no real program for agrarian justice and was, quote, generally indifferent to the problems of the Mexican masses, as Capileti put it.
