Katipunan, 1896 Katipunan, 1896 DIRECTOR MODERATOR Ahmed Moselhi Tomer Zaidman VICE-DIRECTOR Daphne Berberyan UTMUN 2021 Katipunan, 1896 Content Disclaimer At its core, Model United Nations (MUN) is a simulatory exercise of diplomatically embodying, presenting, hearing, dissecting, and negotiating various perspectives in debate. Such an exercise offers opportunities for delegates to meaningfully explore possibilities for conflict resolution on various issues and their complex, even controversial dimensions—which, we recognize, may be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. As UTMUN seeks to provide an enriching educational experience that facilitates understanding of the real-world implications of issues, our committees’ contents may necessarily involve sensitive or controversial subject matter strictly for academic purposes. We ask for delegates to be respectful, professional, tactful, and diplomatic when engaging with all committee content, representing their assigned country’s or character’s position, communicating with staff and other delegates, and responding to opposing viewpoints. The below content warning is meant to warn you of potentially sensitive or triggering topics that are present in the formal content of this background guide, as well as content that may appear in other aspects of committee (e.g., debate, crisis updates, directives), so that you can either prepare yourself before reading this background guide or opt-out of reading it entirely The historical context of this committee is politically and ethnically charged. This committee deals heavily with colonialism and its effects, including issues of race, class division, violence, forceful domination and warfare. As the discussion develops the independence movement will be discussed and the committee may encounter problems of human rights, military conduct, and violence against civilians. The lasting effects of colonization - colonial violence, discrimination based on class, race, and religion, and political turmoil - will also be addressed. If, because of this committee’s content warning, you wish to request switching committees and you registered with UTMUN as a) part of a group delegation, please contact your faculty advisor and/or head delegate with your concerns and request. b) an individual delegate, please email our Director of Academics at [email protected] with a brief explanation of your concerns based on this committee’s content warning and your request to switch. You will be contacted shortly regarding your request. 2 UTMUN 2021 Katipunan, 1896 UTMUN Policies We ask for your cooperation in maintaining order, both inside and outside of committee session, so that we may provide a professional, safe, inclusive, and educational conference. Throughout the conference, please note that delegates shall only: 1. Wear Western Business Attire (i.e., no costumes, no casual wear) 2. Embody their assigned country’s/character’s position, not their mannerisms (e.g., no accents, no props) 3. Opt for diplomatic, respectful, and tactful speech and phrasing of ideas, including notes (e.g., no foul language, suggestive remarks, or obscene body language) 4. Make decisions that contribute to a professional, safe, inclusive, and educational space for debate The rest of our conference policies can be found on our website. By attending all or part of a UTMUN conference, attendees agree to abide by all of our conference policies. Furthermore, delegates’ efforts to contribute to a culture of collaboration, inclusivity, and equity at our conference, both inside and outside of committee session, will be considered by the dais and Secretariat when determining conference scholarships and committee awards. In cases of failing to adhere to any of UTMUN’s policies, the Secretariat reserves the right to take any action it deems necessary, including rendering delegates ineligible for awards, taking disciplinary action, and prohibiting delegates from participating further in the conference. Equity Concerns and Accessibility Needs UTMUN 2021’s Secretariat and Staff are committed to ensuring every attendee has an enjoyable, comfortable, and safe experience and is able to participate fully and positively at our conference.

My name is Ahmed Moselhi and I will be your committee Director alongside your Vice Director, Daphne Berberyan, and your Moderator, Tomer Zaidman. Colonialism has likely been one of, if not the single most influential foreign policy which has shaped the modern world. While colonial projects took place all over the world run by many distinct groups, it’s effects often leave the same distinct hallmarks on native populations. The topic of this committee, the Katipunan and the Philippine revolution, is one of those instances. It’s a heavy topic, one filled with horrible atrocities and the loss of rich and valuable culture. Because of this, I urge every single one of you to treat it as such. It is not just encouraged, but expected, that every single delegate treats the topic of colonialism with utmost respect and seriousness. We often feel decoupled from things we read about in history books or learn in class, we feel as if those things have passed and are no longer relevant. That is not the case, the effects of colonialism in the past affects the lives of countless people in the modern day whether through direct experience or generational repercussions. Yes, 2020 was an eventful year and it’s difficult to keep track of everything happening in the world when we are so overloaded with information but you don’t have to look far to see colonialism in action in the 21st century. In fact, many of the delegates in this committee have likely been touched by colonialism in their lives one way or another and I urge all of you to be mindful and cognizant of that when going into this committee. I encourage all of you to come into this committee with a goal in mind, something other than just “winning awards.” What do you want to learn? What skill do you want to develop? I strongly believe that in doing so, each and every delegate can come into this committee with a purpose that will motivate them throughout. I want each and every one of you to walk away having gained something, whether knowledge or skill, which they can use later on in life. If any of you feel the need to discuss expectations surrounding the committee, especially those involving sensitive topics, feel free to reach out and let me know, the staff and I are committed to ensuring that everyone is comfortable in our committee. With that in mind, Daphne, Tomer and I welcome you to Katipunan, 1896 and we look forward to seeing you in committee. Good luck delegates! Ahmed Moselhi, Director, Katipunan, 1896 [email protected] 3 UTMUN 2021 Katipunan, 1896 Committee Description Beginning in the year prior to the discovery of the Katipunan, this committee will explore the inner workings of the secret society as they work to prepare for, spark and attempt to emerge victorious from the Philippine Revolution. Members of this committee will be faced with many challenges. They will work to grow the Katipunan and expand its influence throughout the Philippines while maintaining public image and approval. They also must operate covertly and prevent the knowledge of their existence from falling in the wrong hands. Through this process, delegates will aim to gather power and resources to help prepare for the revolution, including but not limited to: contacting foreign parties. All in hopes of one day, defeating the Spanish colonizers, ensuring Filipino independence and establishing the First Philippine Republic. 4 UTMUN 2021 Katipunan, 1896 Committee Mechanics Doomsday Clock Delegates will be faced with many choices, some of which might threaten to reveal the Katipunan to not only the public but also to Spanish authorities, which will ultimately signal the beginning of the revolution. This will be presented in the form of a “Doomsday Clock,” that moves closer to “T - 0” based on the actions of the delegates. Some actions will move the clock closer to 0 than others. Once time runs out, the existence of Katipunan will officially be made public and the revolution will begin, pitting delegates against a whole host of new challenges. When the delegates decide to go public is up to them and how confident they are in their preparations for the revolution. Active Public Approval A revolution should be for the people and by the people, so delegates can be sure that the public opinion of their actions matter. As part of the committee, delegates will be responsible for ensuring that the people of the Philippines remain moralized and in support of the revolution. If support in one region dies down, it could mean the loss of valuable strategic resources and locations. The Broadcast Words are the fuel that feeds the fire of a revolution. Delegates will have a chance to pass some public directives in the form of Broadcasts to the general public.

  • Reflections on Agoncilloʼs the Revolt of the Masses and the Politics of History
    Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 49, No. 3, December 2011 Reflections on Agoncilloʼs The Revolt of the Masses and the Politics of History Reynaldo C. ILETO* Abstract Teodoro Agoncilloʼs classic work on Andres Bonifacio and the Katipunan revolt of 1896 is framed by the tumultuous events of the 1940s such as the Japanese occupation, nominal independence in 1943, Liberation, independence from the United States, and the onset of the Cold War. Was independence in 1946 really a culmination of the revolution of 1896? Was the revolution spearheaded by the Communist-led Huk movement legitimate? Agoncilloʼs book was written in 1947 in order to hook the present onto the past. The 1890s themes of exploitation and betrayal by the propertied class, the rise of a plebeian leader, and the revolt of the masses against Spain, are implicitly being played out in the late 1940s. The politics of hooking the present onto past events and heroic figures led to the prize-winning manuscriptʼs suppression from 1948 to 1955. Finally seeing print in 1956, it provided a novel and timely reading of Bonifacio at a time when Rizalʼs legacy was being debated in the Senate and as the Church hierarchy, priests, intellectuals, students, and even general public were getting caught up in heated controversies over national heroes. The circumstances of how Agoncilloʼs work came to the attention of the author in the 1960s are also discussed. Keywords: Philippine Revolution, Andres Bonifacio, Katipunan society, Cold War, Japanese occupation, Huk rebellion, Teodoro Agoncillo, Oliver Wolters Teodoro Agoncilloʼs The Revolt of the Masses: The Story of Bonifacio and the Katipunan is one of the most influential books on Philippine history.

    Colonial Contractions: The Making of the Modern Philippines, 1565–1946 Colonial Contractions: The Making of the Modern Philippines, 1565–1946 Vicente L. Rafael Subject: Southeast Asia, Philippines, World/Global/Transnational Online Publication Date: Jun 2018 DOI: 10.1093/acrefore/9780190277727.013.268 Summary and Keywords The origins of the Philippine nation-state can be traced to the overlapping histories of three empires that swept onto its shores: the Spanish, the North American, and the Japanese. This history makes the Philippines a kind of imperial artifact. Like all nation- states, it is an ineluctable part of a global order governed by a set of shifting power rela­ tionships. Such shifts have included not just regime change but also social revolution. The modernity of the modern Philippines is precisely the effect of the contradictory dynamic of imperialism. The Spanish, the North American, and the Japanese colonial regimes, as well as their postcolonial heir, the Republic, have sought to establish power over social life, yet found themselves undermined and overcome by the new kinds of lives they had spawned. It is precisely this dialectical movement of empires that we find starkly illumi­ nated in the history of the Philippines. Keywords: Philippines, colonialism, empire, Spain, United States, Japan The origins of the modern Philippine nation-state can be traced to the overlapping histo­ ries of three empires: Spain, the United States, and Japan. This background makes the Philippines a kind of imperial artifact. Like all nation-states, it is an ineluctable part of a global order governed by a set of shifting power relationships.

  • THE SPANISH-DEFINED SEPARATISMO in TAAL, 1895-96: a Prologue to a Revolution
    THE SPANISH-DEFINED SEPARATISMO IN TAAL, 1895-96: A Prologue to a Revolution by Manuelito M. Recto In 1895, in the town of Taal, province of Batangas, the Spanish local authorities worked hard enough to denounce some of its inhabitants as subversiVe. They defined the objective of the Taal subversives as the promotion and instigation of anti-patriotic ideas and propaganda against religion to inculcate in the minds of the inhabitants of Batangas the existence of a subversive separatist idea. These ''se­ paratists", led by Felipe Agoncillo and followed by Ramon Atienza, Martin Cabre­ ra, Ananias Diocno and many others, were persecuted for manifesting outwardly their nurtured ideas whtch were allegedly in complete opposition to the precepts of the Spanish constitution and ecclesiastical Jaws. Episode 1: 1895 Subversion On July 23, 1895, a report was transmitted by the parish priest of Taal, Fr. julian Diez, to his superior, Archbishop Bernardino Nozaleda, regarding the latest occurrence in that town. Here, he said, things had happened as a result of certain doctrines and certain personalities, that his loyalty to religion and his beloved Spain had forced him to write the prelate before anyone else. He stated that on 65 66 ASIAN STUDIES June 24, during the interment of a ::laughter of Felipe Agoncillo at the Taal cemetery, Agoncillo spoke offensive words against Spain and its religion after the parish priest refused to have the corpse buried in an untaxed coffin. Fr. Diez attributed to Agoncillo these statements) What I have l8id to you always, (is) that religion is a lie, a despicable farce that we do not have anymore remedy but to swallow it for it was imposed to us by the poorest and most miserable nation of all Europe.

    Arch Ag 99 (2015) 7-63 Los sucesos de Antique de 1888 POR ROBERTO BLANCO ANDRÉS En los meses de mayo y junio de 1888 estalló una rebelión an - tiespañola e independentista en la provincia de Antique (isla de Panay, Filipinas). El levantamiento no tuvo ninguna conexión con el movimiento nacionalista de los ilustrados filipinos de La Propaganda. Ocurrió en una provincia con escasa población española y de tradi - cional administración de la Orden de San Agustín. En este artículo se realiza un estudio en profundidad de unos sucesos prácticamente des - conocidos para la bibliografía, indagando en sus causas, objetivos, desarrollo y protagonistas. Para ello se ha transcrito la correspon - dencia inédita del Padre Alipio Azpitarte, vicario provincial agustino en Antique, quien en las comunicaciones con su superior provincial aporta una información muy rica y abundante. In the months of May and June 1888 broke out an anti-spanish and independentist rebellion in the province of Antique (island of Panay, Philippines). The uprising had no connection with the nationa - list movement of Filipino “Ilustrados” of La Propaganda. It happened in a province with very few spanish and traditionally administered by the Order of St Augustin. We offer in this article a depth study about events virtually unknown, doing a study of its causes, objectives and protagonists. For this purpose we have transcribed the unpublished co - rrespondence of Fr. Alipio Azpitarte, Provincial Vicar Augustinian of Antique, who in their communications with their provincial superior provides a rich and abundant information.

Diane Barnes, Thesis Advisor Date Dr. David Simonelli, Committee Member Date Dr. Helene Sinnreich, Committee Member Date Dr. Salvatore A. Sanders, Dean of Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT Filipino culture was founded through the amalgamation of many ethnic and cultural influences, such as centuries of Spanish colonization and the immigration of surrounding Asiatic groups as well as the long nineteenth century’s Race of Nations. However, the events of 1898 to 1914 brought a sense of national unity throughout the seven thousand islands that made the Philippine archipelago. The Philippine-American War followed by United States occupation, with the massive domestic support on the ideals of Manifest Destiny, introduced the notion of distinct racial ethnicities and cemented the birth of one national Philippine identity. The exploration on the Philippine American War and United States occupation resulted in distinguishing the three different analyses of identity each influenced by events from 1898 to 1914: 1) The identity of Filipinos through the eyes of U.S., an orientalist study of the “us” versus “them” heavily influenced by U.S.
