5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a book that fairly explores the Puerto Rican diaspora!, February 27, 2008
This review is from: The Puerto Rican Diaspora: Historical Perspectives (Paperback)
This book is definitely a MUST for those studying the Puerto Rican diaspora, the Puerto Rican socio-political condition in the US and the economical condition of many Puerto Ricans who have been living in the US for decades. It explains in a balanced and fair way how and why Puerto Ricans have been moving to the US since the 1940's and why they ended up settling in certain parts of the US. I highly recommend it because it clearly shows the effects of US colonialism/imperialism on the economy of Puerto Rico as well as the economic situation of Puerto Ricans residing in the US.

Two thumbs up!
