Ítem Chinese Immigrants in the Guanacastecan Peninsula Lowlands of Costa Rica: Chronicles of Social Integration and Kinship of some Family Clans of Puntarenas, Abangares and Nicoya(2020) Acón Chan, Lai SaiThe purpose of this article is to describe the degree of kinship between several families of Chinese origin who settled in Nicoya and analyze how it influenced their contributions to the socio-economic development of the city and their mobility patterns throughout the Costa Rican Pacific since the late 19th century until the mid-20th century. The study participants are descendants of immigrants who settled in Nicoya from 1880 to 1950 and had two distinctive features: they belonged to the same family clans despite the different surnames with which they were registered or came from the same geographicalarea and sometimes even from the same village, which developed affinity ties as strong as consanguineous ties. This allowed them to support each other to achieve the collective development of the Chinese immigrant group in Nicoya
