Este trabajo estudia la evolución de la estructura productiva de Puerto Rico entre 1967 y 1992. Para examinar la evolución se utilizaron técnicas de Insumo-Producto y Análisis de Redes, que permitieron ilustrar las relaciones significativas en la estructura. Se estimó el Diámetro y la Densidad, y se encontró que la actividad económica aumentó entre 1967 y 1977. Sin embargo, entre 1982 y 1992 la actividad económica disminuyó. Además, se encontró que Electricidad y Productos Químicos tenían medidas significativas de Outdegree pero tenían medidas mínimas de Indegree, por lo que compraban pequeñas cantidades del resto de la economía.

This paper studies the evolution of the productive structure of Puerto Rico between 1967 and 1992. In order to examine the evolution, Input-Output, and network analysis techniques were used, which allowed us to illustrate the significant relationships in the structure. Diameter and Density were estimated, and it was found that economic activity increased between 1967 and 1977. However, between 1982 and 1992, economic activity decreased. In addition, it was found that Electricity and Chemical Products had significant Outdegree measures but had minimal Indegree measures, so they bought small amounts from the rest of the economy.
