Lawson, 2013 Printed in Italy European University Institute Badia Fiesolana I – 50014 San Domenico di Fiesole (FI) Italy www.eui.eu cadmus.eui.eu Abstract Trials against both war crimes and treason were held in the Philippines after the end of the Japanese occupation in 1945. In the former, a universalistic category of crimes were punished, while in the latter, the crime was primarily one of betrayal, and its victim was the nation. In January, 1948 a presidential amnesty was proclaimed by Manuel Roxas for all those accused of wartime treason except for military and police collaborators, spies, informers, or those accused of violent crimes. Most of the treason cases not covered by this amnesty were against those guilty of some of the same atrocities being treated as war crimes in trials against the Japanese.

A» The Ohio S tate U niversity 1961 Approved by Adviser Co-Adviser Department of Political Science PREFACE The purpose of this study is to examine the National Economic Council of the Philippines as a focal point of the contemporary life of that nation. The claim is often made that the Republic of the Philippines, by reason of American tutelage, stands as the one nation in the Orient that has successfully established itself as an American-type democracy. The Philippines is confronted today by serious econcanic problems which may threaten the stability of the nation. From the point of view of purely economic considerations, Philippine national interests would seem to call for one line of policy to cope with these economic problems. Yet, time and again, the Philippine government has been forced by political considerations to foUcw some other line of policy which was patently undesirable from an economic point of view. The National Economic Council, a body of economic experts, has been organized for the purpose of form ulating economic p o licy and recommend­ ing what is economically most desirable for the nation.

  • 06 the Sugar Bloc Prolems and Opportunities.Pdf
    THE SUGAR BLOC: PROBLEMS AND OPPORTUNITIES" by CARMENCITA T. AGUILAR.... I. Introduction A year before the end of the Marcos government, the fall of the sugar industry was dramatized when Asia Week Magazine featured on its cover an emaciated child allegedly a child of a sugar worker in Negros Oc­ cidental. The journalistic intention of a malnourished child on the cover may have been to depict the impact of poverty and hunger on the thousands of people, especially workers, who were dependent on the in­ dustry for their livelihood. The province is identified as a former rich center of the sugar industry in "the West Visayas, at the same time, the hardest hit by the failure of the industry. The set-back on the sugar in­ dustry had caused economic losses to planters and millers in the province • while poverty and related sufferings besieged the masses of workers. While social reformers were happy at the turn of events, many jobless and poor people found repose by joining the insurgents. The main issue that many were concerned with, then, was why the sugar industry had reached its ebb when it had always been traditionally regarded as the backbone of the Philippine economy. It seemed un­ believable to think that the industry could self-destruct when it was con­ sidered the life-blood for both rich and poor in the industry. Looking at the government policy for the industry, it is specially noted that as a result of the Cuban djjis, the industry's expansion was boosted during • the 1962-1967 period with-the increase of the sugar quota to the United States.

  • Universal Crime, Particular Punishment: Trying the Atrocities of the Japanese Occupation As Treason in the Philippines, 1947–1953
    Universal Crime, Particular Punishment: Trying the Atrocities of the Japanese Occupation as Treason in the Philippines, 1947–1953 Konrad M. Lawson RESÜMEE Nach dem Ende der japanischen Besatzung der Philippinen 1945 wurden dort Prozesse zur Verfolgung von Kriegsverbrechen und von Landesverrat initiiert. Während im ersten Fall eine universalistische Kategorie von Verbrechen zur Strafe stand, ging es im zweiten Fall meist um den Verrat an der Nation, die als Opfer definiert wurde. Im Januar 1948 erklärte Manuel Roxas eine Präsidialamnestie für alle des Landesverrats Beschuldigten mit Ausnahme von Kollabora- teuren aus dem Militär und der Polizei, Spionen, Informanten und gewalttätiger Verbrechen Beschuldigter. Die meisten der Fälle von Landesverrat, die diese Amnestie nicht umfasste, be- trafen Personen, die Formen von Gräuel begangen hatte, die in Prozessen gegen Japaner als Kriegsverbrechen eingestuft wurden. Dieser Artikel untersucht den Prozess der gerichtlichen Aufarbeitung von Gewaltverbrechen und sexueller Gewalt, meist begangen durch Kollabora- teure aus dem Militär und der Polizei, in den Philippinen nach 1945 gemäß dem Gesetz gegen Verrat. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage, inwiefern – ungeachtet der Tatsache, dass die Kriegs- verbrecherprozesse der frühen Nachkriegszeit den Erwartungen in vielerlei Form nicht ent- sprachen – die alternative Kategorisierung von Brutalität im Krieg als Landesverrat nicht auch hochproblematisch war.

Looking at the approaches taken in the colonies of British Asia, postwar treason trials in the Philippines, and Chinese Communist approaches in wartime and postwar Shandong province, this study argues that the laws and rhetoric of treason were deeply flawed tools for confronting the atrocities of war. At the very moment that war crimes trials were defining a set of acts that constituted crimes against all humanity, around the world thousands of individuals who helped perpetrate them were treated as primarily guilty of crimes against the nation.
