Resistencia e integración laboral en Tlaxcala, el caso de la fábrica textil La Trinidad y el pueblo de Santa Cruz (1884-1892)

Abstract

According to the regional development of Mexican capitalism in the final third of the nineteenth century, state and municipal governments prompted the installation of a textile factory in the town of Santa Cruz, Tlaxcala. After five years of construction, the factory called La Trinidad opened and, over a period of eight years (1884–1892), it absorbed half a dozen native people of Santa Cruz as captives and thirty-four mobile workers or laborers dependent on the workday.
