Globalization and Puerto Rico

Globalization refers to the increasing interconnectedness of the world, where trade, culture, and technology cross borders more easily. For Puerto Rico, this means its economy and culture are influenced by international markets and movements. As a U.S. territory, Puerto Rico faces unique challenges and opportunities, such as reliance on U.S. imports, the impact of global economic trends, and the influence of diverse cultures. This interconnectedness can boost economic growth but also raises concerns about local identity, job security, and environmental sustainability as Puerto Rico navigates its place in a globalized world.
