Featuring primary sources from figures of the period, Van Young discusses the political instability of the period--internal warfare, military uprisings, intermittent dictatorships, sharp conflicts among political groupings--and attributes them to a belief by political actors in the fundamental lack of legitimacy in central government institutions after the sweeping away of the Bourbon imperial structure and its replacement first with a very short-lived Mexican empire followed by a series of increasingly authoritarian aspirational republican constitutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEric Van Young\u003c\/b\u003e is Distinguished Professor of History Emeritus at the University of California, San Diego.
