MOCTEZUMA BALDERAS, Andrea Cristina. They brought trade: Syrian-Lebanese, Japanese and Chinese immigrants in the municipality of Cardenas, San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2021, vol.42, n.168, pp.48-87. Epub 06-Fev-2023. ISSN 2448-7554. https://doi.org/10.24901/rehs.v42i168.777.
This article addresses the phenomenon of convergent migration (Green, 2002) of the Syrian-Lebanese, Japanese and Chinese communities in Mexico, specifically in the municipality of Cárdenas, a small town of railroad origin located in the middle zone of the state of San Luis Potosí. At the same time, Cárdenas is analyzed as a contact zone due to the local-global relationship that this community had with other countries after the arrival of foreigners in 1920, who brought with them cultural and economic practices that were well received by the locals. The research method corresponds to a historical and anthropological task, by means of which diverse historical sources were consulted, and ethnographic research was carried out with the descendants of the immigrants who still reside in the municipality.
