Constituyente de 1917

The Constituyente de 1917, or the Mexican Constitutional Convention of 1917, was a gathering of representatives tasked with drafting a new constitution for Mexico. It met during the Mexican Revolution to address social inequalities, land reforms, labor rights, and limited the power of the church and military. The resulting 1917 Constitution is a foundational legal document that introduced progressive reforms, such as land redistribution and workers' rights, shaping modern Mexico’s political and social structure. It remains in effect today, reflecting the country's efforts to promote social justice and sovereignty.
