MARTINEZ RIVERA, Sergio E.  e  DUSSEL PETERS, Enrique. The Chinese diaspora in Mexico: Chinese associations in the Distrito Federal, Mexicali and Tapachula. Migr. desarro [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.26, pp.111-143. ISSN 1870-7599.

Based upon interviews with more than a dozen Chinese immigrant associations and their descendants within three states in Mexico (Distrito Federal, Mexicali and Tapachula), this study identified a number of current characteristics of these associations. It uncovers a Chinese community relatively integrated at the local level, but which has limited ties with the People's Republic of China, as well as limited promotion of economic projects among local and regional governments. The article also calls attention to the existence and cooperation among at least four institutionalized groups of Chinese immigrants in Mexico: "the historical" -the results of migratory flows from the United States and directly from China, but also a significant growth in three other groupings: institutions of Chinese immigrants across various generations; institutions of Chinese immigrants with economic-commercial goals; and another very important group of Chinese institutions linked to the very recent "wave" of Chinese immigrants from the early years of the 21st Century.
