In the first half of the nineteenth century, authorities in Mexico City struggled to regulate the milk market in order to increase the product's availability and sanitation. This process was characterized by bitter disputes between the government and all actors involved in the production, sale, distribution and pasteurization of cow's milk. In this article I explain how the Mexican government's economic and political priorities, namely protecting consumer prices and avoiding discontent among the dairy business actors, were prioritized over public health measures, such as pasteurization and the struggle against adulterated milk.
在19世纪上半叶,墨西哥城的当局努力规范牛奶市场,以提高产品的可得性和卫生状况。这一过程的特点是政府与参与牛奶生产、销售、分销和巴氏杀菌的所有行为者之间存在激烈争端。在本文中,我将解释墨西哥政府如何将经济和政治优先事项,即保护消费者价格和避免乳制品行业行为者的不满,置于公共卫生措施之上,如巴氏杀菌和打击掺假牛奶的斗争。
