| Omschrijving: | One of the great historiographical gaps about Venezuela is the one that corresponds to migrations of Asian origin. Of these, the Chinese one began in the middle of the 19th century and although of marginal presence in comparison with other Latin American experiences such as the Brazilian, Peruvian or Mexican, its importance began to increase with the new century. Not exempt from difficulties, the sons of the Middle Kingdom had to face legislation that prevented them from remaining in the country, persecution by the authorities and the lack of diplomatic representation to defend them. In spite of this, those who managed to stay undertook different economic activities in a territory that welcomed them with distrust. The other related aspect is that such immigration led to the Chinese government's interest in establishing relations with the South American nation, which were formalized in 1943. These are the reasons that encourage us to reflect on Chinese immigration to Venezuela. |
