This thorough investigation of Professor Jorge Rodríguez Beruff shows how the US government's policy on Puerto Rico and elsewhere in America was designed and implemented by the United States Army.
In Puerto Rico, separating politics from its military aspects is impossible, as the island has been at the mercy of the strategic interests of the United States for more than a century.
Rodríguez Beruff sheds light on the chain of governors - and other government officials - picked from the ranks of the American army and legitimated in their posts by the military powers that the United States exercises over Puerto Rico.
