NAVIA HOYOS, Mateo. Emigrate to live, Serve to Immigrate. American and Colombian Immigration Legislation for Jews between 1880 and 1930. Co-herencia [online]. 2014, vol.11, n.21, pp.253-269. ISSN 1794-5887.

This article takes a look at the treatment given to migrant Jews from Asia to America and Colombia between 1880 and 1930, mainly based on the laws that were created. This legal context, accompanied by a reference to the discussion on the issue of race that was held in 1920, allows us to think that in the context of the modernization that was taking place on the American continent, Jews who entered the relevant countries had to engage in the nations´ development and progress programs.

Palabras clave : Jews; inmigration; America; Colombia; legislation.
