IBARRA, Carlos Ortega. NATIONAL AND POPULAR SCHOOL ARCHITECTURE DURING THE CONSTITUTIONALIST REVOLUTION OF 1914-1917. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.23, e83400.  Epub Mar 07, 2019. ISSN 2236-3459.  https://doi.org/10.1590/2236-3459/83400.

Between the years of 1914 and 1917, public education in Mexico City was subject to a series of reforms carried out by the constitutionalist revolution to expand educational coverage among the popular classes. The strategy followed by the constitutionalists to promote popular education consisted in reorienting the “school palaces”, built during the government of Porfirio Diaz as prototypes of national school architecture, and promote constitutional reforms to empower the municipalities and force the owners of industries to establish schools in hygienic conditions for the inhabitants and their workers. Here, we will see the school architecture of the time as a result of the interaction between epistemic and non-epistemic factors.

Keywords : Mexican Revolution; constitutionalist army; school architecture; popular education.
