Reviews

The analysis of both Puerto Rico and the United States is comprehensive and fascinating and will be a landmark for many other scholars interested in studying Puerto Ricans on the island as well as in the United States. The analysis of entrepreneurship in the United States is innovative in my opinion, among many other impressive analyses. -- Jose G. Caraballo, University of Puerto Rico, Cayey This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding demographic and economic developments in Puerto Rico since the turn of the Century. The factors that brought about la Crisis Boricua have been brewing for several decades. However, starting in 2006, a deep and protracted economic depression in Puerto Rico has prompted the largest exodus of Puerto Ricans to the Mainland in history. Mora, Davila and Rodriguez do a great job of analyzing and comparing the socioeconomic outcomes of both Island and Mainland Puerto Ricans, during this pivotal moment in the history of the People of Puerto Rico. -- Mario Marazzi Santiago, Institute of Statistics of Puerto Rico
