| Summary: | The colonizing efforts of some groups of Boer exiled from Southafrica in Chihuahua and the American southwest, a few years after the second anglo-boer war from 1899 to 1902, are analysed in this article. The study focuses, mainly, on the circumstances that originated this proyect and the reasons for the nonefulfillment of the colony settled in Chihuahua, which provoked the dissemination of most of the settlers into other regions. On a comparative basis, two more proyects are analysed: the establishment of foreign Mormon and Mennonite settlers, who shared some of the Boer migrant characteristics, in Mexico. |
