Abstract

This article analyzes the armed conflict between various social groups and the State of Mexico (The Cristero War, 1926-1929, whose origin was the adoption of a national decree limiting the activity and ownership of property by the Catholic Church), as well as the economic exploitation of such a conflict by creating a tourism product, "The Cristero Route", taking advantage of the pilgrimage movement to visit places related to the 25 Cristero saints (people canonized by the Catholic Church who died in this war) and which are becoming more popular, especially to the Mexican population. © 2019 Universidade Federal de Goias.
