Summary
Ernesto de la Torre Villar et al. (eds.), Historia documental de México, 2 vols. (Mexico, D.F., 1964) is an important documentary collection. F. Tena Ramírez (ed.), Leyes fundamentales de México 1808–1973, 5t n rev.ed. (Mexico, D.F., 1973), reproduces all the constitutions and their drafts as well as the most important laws and decrees. Guides to the records of the Archivo General de Notarías, Mexico City, for the year 1829 (Amherst, Mass., 1982) and for the year 1847 (Amherst, Mass., 1983) have been compiled by Robert A. Potash in collaboration with Jan Bazant and Josefina Z. Vázquez, and for the years 1836–43 – one volume for each year – by Josefina Z. Vázquez and Pilar Gonzalbo Aizpuru (Mexico, D.F., 1985–90). For economic and social aspects of the period from around 1800 to 1852, L. Chávez Orozco (ed.), Colección de documentos para la historia del comercio exterior de México, in two series: series 1 in 7 vols. (Mexico, D.F., 1958–62); series 2 in 4 vols. (Mexico, D.F., 1965–7) should be consulted; it covers much more ground than the title indicates. Documentation on the Juárez era can be found in J. L. Tamayo (ed.), Benito Juárez, documentos, discursos y correspondencia, 14 vols. (Mexico, D.F., 1964–70), and Secretaría de la Presidencia (ed.), La administración pública en la época de Juárez, 3 vols. (Mexico, D.F., 1973). For foreign relations, see L. Díaz (ed.), Versión francesa de México: Informes diplomátics 1853–1867, 4 vols. (Mexico, D.F., 1963–7), and L. Díaz (ed.), Versión francesa de México 1851–67; Informes económicos (consular reports), 2 vols. (Mexico, D.F., 1974).
