الوصف: | From the last third of the eighteenth century, thousands of immigrants from South, South East and East Asia arrived in New Spain aboard the Manila Galleon. Collectively dubbed with the generic term “chinos,” these individuals had a notable impact in New Spanish society. However, during the eighteenth century, this Asian presence gradually diluted to the point that, in the early nineteenth century, the term “chino” additionally designated people of Amerindian and African descent. This produced the erroneous notion that the demographic influx from Asia in New Spain was insignificant. This article confronts this idea by analyzing the main factors that contributed to the “Africanization” of the Asian diaspora in the viceroyalty: the abolition of slavery and the ensuing drop in the transpacific migratory flow; the intensification of the process of miscegenation from 1650; and asymmetrical resistance to malaria and yellow fever among the Asian diaspora |
