Abstract
La expropiación petrolera de 1938 ha generado una vasta obra historiográfica en México desde poco después de llevarse a cabo. Dentro de ésta, podemos encontrar los libros de texto gratuito, que son obligatorios para todos los estudiantes de educación básica en México. Pese a ser un tipo de historiografía poco estudiada, los libros de texto gratuito son en muchos casos el primer lugar donde los mexicanos tienen acceso a la historia de su país, por lo que resulta una fuente invaluable para poder analizar lo que estos conocen sobre ella, así como la consecuente importancia que tendrá el petróleo dentro del imaginario social.
1938's Petroleum Expropriation has generated a big amount of historiographical pieces in México since briefly after it happened. Within these, we can find the libros de texto gratuito (free textbooks) which are mandatory for all elementary school students in México. Despite being a not very studied kind of historiography, free textbooks are in many cases the first place where Mexicans have access to their country's history, so they turn into a invaluable source to analyze the importance of oil within the social imaginary.
