This review is from: Island Paradox: Puerto Rico in the 1990s (1990 Census Research Series) (Hardcover)
This book is an empirical critique of Puerto Rico's development program called Operation Bootstrap. The authors use abundant census data to depict the contradictory socioeconomic trends induced by the island's industrial development. Analytically, the authors straddle between a view of Puerto Rico as a developing economy and as a regional economy of the United States. This ambiguity leaves the reader wondering whether the paradox is the product of methodological inconsistencies or of the reality of Puerto Rico as an unicorporated territory of the United States.
