by Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, September 22, 2001
On 6 March 1929, several revolutionary persons and movements leaded by
General Plutarco Elias Calles founded the Revolutionary National Party
(Partido Nacional Revolucionario, PNR). In 1938, under the
administration of Lazaro Cardenas, the PNR became
the Mexican Revolutionary Party (Partido Revolucionario
Mexicano, PRM) and created its own professional
organizations. In 1946, the PRM took its current name, the PRI. Under these
various names, it gained a total control on the Mexican society.
