In The Bajío Revolution, John Tutino examines how popular insurgents reshaped Mexico, the United States, and global capitalism during the nineteenth century. After detailing New Spains silver-driven wealth, Tutino shows how the Bajío insurgency of 181020 broke silver flows and Asian trades, opening markets to industrial cloth made in England from cotton made by enslaved hands in the US Southwhile Bajío women claimed pivotal roles making maize to sustain families and guerrilla bands. As Mexico gained independence in 1821, mining remained broken while family growers held strong. Then, in the 1830s, a new silver-industrial capitalism fed by family maize makers rose in the Bajío.
