Definición

  • Operation Bootstrap, an ambitious project to industrialize Puerto Rico during the 1950s and 1960s, was the primary economic policy of Puerto Rican Governor Luís Muñoz Marín. By 1938, realizing that Puerto Rico's rapidly growing population could not be adequately sustained through the continuation of an agrarian-based economic system, Muñoz Marín argued that industrialization was the panacea for Puerto Rico's economic woes.
