迪亚斯是墨西哥近代史上著名的铁腕总统。在统治墨西哥的三十余年中,他践踏法律,操纵选举,一再自封总统,网罗旧势力、旧贵族,迫害民族资产阶级、进步知识分子,实行独裁专制;仰仗外国资本开发本国资源,断送了国家经济命脉;残酷镇压工农群众,置人民生活于水火之中。但在青年时期,此人曾参加反封建和保卫国家的战争,屡立战功,颇有声望。在执政期间,他也实行了一些使国家稳定和发展国民经济的政策,使墨西哥经济实力有所增强。对于这样一个人物应该如何评价,本文作者进行了一些探索。 Dias is a famous iron fist president in modern history of Mexico. In the thirty years he ruled Mexico, he tramples on the law, manipulates the elections, repeatedly seals off the president, recruits the old forces, the old aristocrats, persecrates the national bourgeoisie, advances the intellectuals and imposes a dictatorship. He relies on foreign capital to develop his own resources, The lifeblood of the national economy; the brutal suppression of workers and peasants and the masses and the construction of people’s lives in the midst of water and fire.

During his administration, he also implemented some policies that enabled the country to stabilize and develop the national economy and made Mexico’s economic strength even stronger.
