| description | This article presents a study about the causes of death of the child population in Ciudad Juárez, at the beginning of the second half of the
20th century. In this document, emphasis has been placed on investigating the government response, on the activities carried out by local health institutions to deal with the diseases and prevent the number
of infant deaths from continuing to increase; and in a particular way,
in the actions of society to reduce suffering and protect children. Regarding the sources of information that were used, the data registered
in the death books of 1953 and 1954 that are in the Civil Registry of
Ciudad Juárez were explored and quantified. Also, the newspaper El
Fronterizo and various bibliography were reviewed to establish the urban
historical context in which this tragedy occurred. |
