Contemporary Caribbean Cultures and Societies in a Global Context (review)

Buchenau also situates Calles within the context of Latin America politicians of his age. Like other Latin America populists, Calles tried to expand the state and build a mass popular base, in part by attacking “reaction.” But he did not personally reach out through mass media and mass organizations, nor hone his speeches and image like Getulio Vargas or Evita Péron. If he was a populist, he delegated mass politics to intermediaries and institutions to a much greater degree than virtually every other contemporary populist leader. On the other hand, as Bucheneau’s title suggests, in his day Calles alone in Latin America ruled a country after a social revolution. His genius lay not in personifying the state, but in trying to harness popular forces indirectly.
