TL;DR: The period of this study saw the stabilization of the violent revolution in Mexico and a continuation of the pursuit of revolutionary aims by more peaceful means as discussed by the authors, which was to be one of the bases for the present good relations between the two countries.
Abstract: The period of this study saw the stabilization of the violent revolution in Mexico and a continuation of the pursuit of revolutionary aims by more peaceful means. The United States, by 1924, was a wealthy and powerful nation whose citizens had financial, cultural, and religious interests in Mexico. The attempts of the Calles administration to achieve Mexican control over alien land, subsoil resources, and the Roman Catholic Church resulted in diplomatic conflict with both the United States Government and the Roman Catholic Church. The solution of these deep-seated problems was not achieved in the four-year period of the Calles Administra tion, but a modus vivendi was agreed upon which was to be one of the bases for the present good relations between the two countries. President Calles thus obtained stability and extended Mexican nationalism while instituting the selfperpetuating oligarchy which, with but little modification, continues to dominate Mexico today.

TL;DR: A theory has most chance of acceptance if it seems elegantly to order a very large number of hitherto unrelated facts as discussed by the authors, and the end of this search is a better theory.
Abstract: Social scientists make a fundamental assumption about the nature of the relationship between theory and fact. For them, theories are seen, not as guides to individual behaviour, but as tools for the clinical investigation of social processes. The end of this search is a better theory. A theory has most chance of acceptance if it seems elegantly to order a very large number of hitherto unrelated facts.
