La situacion de Puerto-Rico
Las falacias de los conservadores y los compromisos del partido radical
"La situación de Puerto-Rico" by Anonymous is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The text examines the political and social conditions of Puerto Rico, particularly in relation to the struggles and promises surrounding its governance and the pressing issues of colonial policies during that time. This examination likely seeks to expose the discrepancies and failings of both conservative and radical political factions regarding Puerto Rico's fate and rights. The opening of the book introduces the political landscape in Spain following the rise of the radical party, which had significant aspirations for reforms in Puerto Rico. It discusses the initial hopes for immediate reforms and the subsequent disillusionment with the political stance of conservative forces, which sought to preserve the existing order while using fear and speculation about Puerto Rico's stability to stifle reform efforts. The author highlights the seeming contradiction between the radical party's promises and their hesitance to implement necessary changes, foreshadowing a turbulent political dialogue regarding the rights and governance of Puerto Rico.
