GOMEZ, Diana A.  e  DIAZ, Luz M.. Chinese organizations in Colombia. Migr. desarro [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.26, pp.75-110. ISSN 1870-7599.

The existence of Chinese organizations in Colombia is relatively small, since Chinese immigration is a recent phenomenon and has not been in great quantities, if one compares it to other Latin American countries. To date, no research initiatives have been carried out that tackle the characteristics and evolution of the Chinese migrant associations founded in Colombian territory. Beginning with a brief summary of Chinese immigration to Colombia, the study looks at the characteristics of this Chinese immigration as it is today, and the factors which have been determinant in its development, among them of particular interest is the Colombian migration policy; concurrently, the absence of a clearly defined foreign policy; and the context of internal violence which has characterized Colombia through the past seven decades. In this context, the article attempts to develop a characterization and typology of Chinese immigrant organizations in Colombia.
