Ricky situation: Puerto Rico’s protests
The Intelligence from The Economist 
About this episode
Rolling protests have rocked the island after leaked texts revealed the governor’s insults. But Puerto Rico’s problems are far greater than almost 900 pages of tasteless jokes. We consider the merits of challenging Latin America’s amnesties; justice might be served, but unearthing the past comes with its own perils. And, why women are so well represented among eastern Europe’s scientists. <hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
