Seemingly obvious is this underlying ideas that although the government was working at building a strong and patriotic Mexico by attending to the rural communities, there were demands that the government just could not meet. It comes from involving the nations people in conversations about how to better their communities, only then could the Mexican people feel as if they were apart of their country. Mexico would struggle for the incorporation of the many cultures into nationalism and yet as Vaughan demonstrates, the government was able to meet their goal with limited success and failure. I think that the SEP is sort of like the teachers of today. Teachers are the link between the community and the governmnet.
Teachers have to follow what the community wants and yet stand by government rules.
