The Treaty of Ciudad Juárez was a peace treaty signed between the then President of Mexico, Porfirio Díaz, and the revolutionary Francisco Madero on May 21, 1911. The treaty put an end to the fighting between forces supporting Madero and those of Díaz and thus concluded the initial phase of the Mexican Revolution. The treaty stipulated that Díaz, as well as his vice president Ramón Corral, were to step down by the end of May, and that he was to be replaced by Francisco León de la Barra as interim president and hold presidential elections. Those who had suffered losses due to the revolution would be the indemnified, and there would be a general amnesty.〔Charles C. Cumberland, ''Mexican Revolution: Genesis Under Madero''. Austin: University of Texas Press 1952, p. 150.〕 〔Katz, Friedrich (1998): (''The Life and Times of Pancho Villa'' ) Stanford University Press, pgs 104–119.〕 Díaz resigned on May 25, and interim president Francisco León de la Barra was the new incumbent. Díaz and his family, his vice president Corral, plus José Yves Limantour and Rosendo Pineda left Mexico for exile.〔Cumberland, ''Mexican Revolution'' p. 150.〕〔Gonzales, Michael J. (2002): (''The Mexican Revolution, 1910–1940'' ) UNM Press, pgs 76, 80–84〕 Significantly, the treaty did not mention or institute any social reforms that Madero had vaguely promised on previous occasions.〔 It also left the Porfirian state essentially intact.〔 Additionally, Madero supported the unpopular idea that all land disputes were to be settled through the courts, staffed by the old judges, a decision that led to outbreaks of sporadic violence, particularly in rural areas.〔 On June 7, 1911, Madero entered Mexico City. In October 1911 he was elected president, under the banner of the Partido Constitucional Progresista, along with José María Pino Suárez, his new running mate as vice-president. Madero pushed aside Francisco Vázquez Gómez, the vice presidential candidate for the Anti-Reelectionist Party in 1910, as being too moderate.〔Keen, Benjamin and Haynes, Keith (2008): (''A History of Latin America: Independence to the Present'' ) Cengage Learning, pg 315〕〔Mark Wasserman, "Francisco Vázquez Gómez" in ''Encyclopedia of Mexico'', vol. 2, pl 1522. Chicago: Fitzroy Dearborn 1997.〕 ==Military developments leading up to the treaty== The rebellion against the government of Porfirio Díaz broke out in late 1910, after Díaz had his rival Francisco Madero imprisoned and had announced his own victory in a falsified election. Madero's earlier vague promises of agrarian reforms had attracted many supporters. He himself escaped from prison and fled to Texas, from where he issued his famous Plan of San Luis Potosí. This manifesto called for an armed uprising against the ''Porfiriato'' and establishment of free and democratic elections. As a response to Madero's proclamation, violent clashes began throughout Mexico in November 1910.〔Navarro, Armando (2009): (The Immigration Crisis: Nativism, Armed Vigilantism, and the Rise of the Countervailing Movement ) AltaMira Press, pgs 47–48〕 In the Guerrero district of Chihuahua, Pascual Orozco attacked Federal troops and sent dead soldiers' clothing back to Díaz with the message, "Ahí te van las hojas, mándame más tamales" ("Here are the wrappers, send me more tamales.")〔Martin Donell Kohout, "Orozco, Pascual, Jr.", (The Handbook of Texas Online ), Texas Historical Association, last accessed 16 June 2010〕 He then began operations which threatened Ciudad Juárez. Additionally, political support for Madero's rebellion came from Abraham González, who accepted the Plan of San Luis Potosí.〔 At roughly the same time, agrarian unrest in the state of Morelos turned into a full blown rebellion under the leadership of the Zapata brothers, Emiliano and Eufemio.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Treaty of Ciudad Juárez」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
