Class struggle
Arturo Almazán Cantoral
The class struggle is a social phenomenon that has developed in all world cultures throughout history, is a struggle of opposing parties in society, social strata and interests conflicting aspirations. It is a struggle born of inequality and injustice, precarious living conditions of class and opulence and wealth of another, is a phenomenon that has made history with its constant clashes of opposites, which is born a new social structure and a time of peace and tranquility, giving way to another era of inequality and new shocks. Looks like this is a cyclical process of history, however, despite the similarities that these struggles can have each other, each is unique, so each episode of history has its own characteristics according to their time and space.
Throughout history human beings have developed many episodes of class struggle in a number of societies and cultures and struggles that led to social revolutions and structural changes of a civilization. The contrast between the different strata of society is something that has existed since the earliest societies sedentary, is a constant phenomenon in which two opposing parties facing society to defend its interests and benefits. In these fights the winner is who regulates the new social relations or retain the above, and thus the companies are always changing according to the historical moment.
In this paper I address the major class struggles in the current Mexican territory to do so by going back to the roots of being Mexican, and I do not mean he was born in 1810, because what we are today goes back to being English who conquered this land and to be New Spain that we inherited a great legacy, which is why I go back to the time of the English Reconquest against the Arabs and the conquest of Mexico by the English, because only by going back in time one can understand more fully what we are today. But since Mexico's history is a subject of great extent, I think framing the historical period that I will try to constrain the history of the conquest until the year 1850, and still remains a very broad, what I can only dwell on the milestones that marked the history of New Spain and Mexico and to represent the class struggle that has lived in our territory, which has come as an inheritance, because today we live similar things and the reader will announce it along this work.
believe that Mexicans in general, it is very important to be aware of its historical past, because without this awareness you can not understand the current situation in which they live day by day, and if you do not understand unless you can act to positive change. If we in ignorance of our past and the present, difficult to get that change. Therefore I write this work, so that people know and understand their history, to realize that those who govern us and demystify those national heroes who have both been enlarged, and I think the story is a story of heroes and villains, but of human beings, which without exception have strengths and weaknesses, human mistakes and successes that are driven by their instincts and passions, things that are not perfect but have left their mark in history by their actions.
As I mentioned, I go back to the English conquest, but before you do a recap of several milestones in world history, events in which there was a struggle of species, races, kingdoms, nations or classes. It seems necessary to address this huge issue, because power struggles are not new, it has been practiced since the origins of man and the first civilizations, I believe that this historical review will be enriching for the reader to delve into history of Spain, since Ultimately we all have a legacy of the distant past, the Mesopotamians Egyptians, the Greeks of the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans of Europe of the latter, in fact, the Greco-Roman tradition that governs the Western civilization and which is based on knowledge. Thus to understand our history have to get a bit of the history of mankind throughout time.
