| 總結: | The theory of conspiracy, that is, the idea that national problems are due to the plots of certain social and political groups, usually conceived with strong xenophobic traits, has played a central role in the appearance and development of nationalistic movements. By analyzing the images that appeared in El Hijo del Ahuizote, a popular Mexican magazine published in the late- nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, the author reveals how the Mexican nationalism of the time created a certain image of the gachupín, as well as some peculiarities of this nationalism, its effect on Mexico's political life and the complex relations btween the Mexican imaginary and anything related to Spain.
