Adolfo Tomás Ruiz Cortines (Spanish pronunciation: [a'ðolfo 'rwis ko?'tines] (listen); December 30, 1889 – December 3, 1973) was a Mexican politician who served as 47th President of Mexico from 1952 to 1958, as the candidate for the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI).
Unlike his predecessor as president Miguel Alemán and his successor Adolfo López Mateos, he had participated in the Mexican Revolution.
He was one of the oldest presidents of Mexico, perhaps best remembered for granting women the right to vote in presidential elections and stimulating the Mexican economy during the period known as the Mexican Miracle.
