2 Revolution Leads to Change The Constitution of 1917 allowed the breakup of large estates, restricted foreign ownership of land, and gave the government control of natural resources. Workers got a minimum wage and the right to strike. Women gained legal and property rights, as well as equal pay for equal work. The political party PRI was organized in 1929 and held power until 2000. In the 1930s, Mexico pursued real social and economic reforms and in 1938 nationalized its oil resources. 2 of 8 Nationalism and Revolution Around the World Section 1: Struggle in Latin America Note Taking Transparency 161A
