Teachers can now access historical context and current understandings of Puerto Rico's economy. The materials gathered here help place the current moment within the larger political, social, and economic history of Puerto Rico as a U.S. territory and illuminates how both the crisis and its proposed solutions are impacting the daily lives of millions of Puerto Ricans both within the territory and across its growing diaspora. Each topic has a few key texts along with some primary documents, multimedia, and suggestions for further reading. This resource has included texts in both English and Spanish to make this syllabus as accessible as possible and is working towards a fully bilingual version.
