El exilio costarricense en México en la década de 1940

Abstract

The presence of Costa Rican exiles in Mexico had an impact on the course of relations between Mexico and Costa Rica from 1940 onwards. The diplomatic dynamic this produced led to a number of activities that foregrounded certain relations that until that point had remained cordial. The culmination of these relations occurred in April 1948 in the Embassy of Mexico, where the peace accords were signed to end the Costa Rican Civil War, signifying the victory of Figueres’ forces, who to a large extent had been organized from Mexico, beginning in 1943.
