  • THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WAR AND RESISTANCE: THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jon T. Sumida, History Department What happened in the Philippine Islands between the surrender of Allied forces in May 1942 and MacArthur’s return in October 1944? Existing historiography is fragmentary and incomplete. Memoirs suffer from limited points of view and personal biases. No academic study has examined the Filipino resistance with a critical and interdisciplinary approach. No comprehensive narrative has yet captured the fighting by 260,000 guerrillas in 277 units across the archipelago. This dissertation begins with the political, economic, social and cultural history of Philippine guerrilla warfare. The diverse Islands connected only through kinship networks. The Americans reluctantly held the Islands against rising Japanese imperial interests and Filipino desires for independence and social justice. World War II revealed the inadequacy of MacArthur’s plans to defend the Islands. The General tepidly prepared for guerrilla operations while Filipinos spontaneously rose in armed resistance. After his departure, the chaotic mix of guerrilla groups were left on their own to battle the Japanese and each other. While guerrilla leaders vied for local power, several obtained radios to contact MacArthur and his headquarters sent submarine-delivered agents with supplies and radios that tie these groups into a united framework. MacArthur’s promise to return kept the resistance alive and dependent on the United States. The repercussions for social revolution would be fatal but the Filipinos’ shared sacrifice revitalized national consciousness and created a sense of deserved nationhood. The guerrillas played a key role in enabling MacArthur’s return.

  • The Republic of the Philippines and U.S. Interests--2014
    The Republic of the Philippines and U.S. Interests—2014 Thomas Lum Specialist in Asian Affairs Ben Dolven Specialist in Asian Affairs May 15, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R43498 The Republic of the Philippines and U.S. Interests—2014 Summary The United States and the Republic of the Philippines maintain close ties stemming from the U.S. colonial period (1898-1946), the bilateral security alliance bound by the Mutual Defense Treaty of 1951, and common strategic and economic interests. In the past decade, the Philippines has been one of the largest recipients of U.S. foreign assistance in Southeast Asia, including both military and development aid. Many observers say that U.S. public and private support to the Philippines following Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan), which struck the central part of the country on November 8, 2013, bolstered the already strong bilateral relationship. Although the United States closed its military bases in the Philippines in 1992, the two sides have maintained security cooperation. Joint counterterrorism efforts, in which U.S. forces play a non- combat role, have helped to reduce Islamist terrorist threats in Mindanao and the Sulu Archipelago in the southern Philippines. During the past year, Washington and Manila have held discussions on the framework for an increased, non-permanent U.S. military presence in the Philippines. Since 2012, the Philippines has played a key role in the Obama Administration’s “rebalancing” of foreign policy priorities to Asia, particularly as maritime territorial disputes between China and other claimants in the South China Sea have intensified.

  • Hellfire: Charred Lives and Burning Resolve of the Kentex Tragedy
    Hellfire: Charred Lives and Burning Resolve of the Kentex Tragedy The Kentex Tragedy It was not only the searing memories of screaming voices and flashing flames that awakened Terrence King Ong, the operations manager of Kentex Manufacturing Corporation, in the Philippines, who was hospitalized with third-degree burns after the May 13, 2015, fire at his factory. It was grief for his son, Tristan, who died while helping workers escape.1 He grieved as well for the employees who did not make it out. Indeed, his imaginings of their unanswered pleas for help made him break down in tears. He humbly appealed to the public, “Please forgive me. Give me another chance.”2 At least 72 people died in the fire, dozens were injured, and another dozen were listed as missing. The aftermath was grim (see Exhibit 1).3 The tragedy was not unprecedented. In 1975, a wig factory burned down and killed 42 workers in Manila, the capital of the Philippines.4 The worst case recorded in the country was the Ozone Disco fire in a Manila suburb, which claimed 150 lives in 1996.5 Exhibit 1 Published by WDI Publishing, a division of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan. © 2015 Liberty I. Nolasco. This case was written by Liberty I. Nolasco, Assistant Professor of the Management and Organization Department at Ramon V. del Rosario College of Business at De La Salle University in the Philippines. This case was prepared as the basis for class discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective handling of a situation.

If Filipino journalists do not learn from history, and the perception of the press as r?creationalistic and rumor based does not change, President Aquino may adopt legislation forcing the news media to be more responsive to the needs of a developing nation.

From 2011 to 2016 the multilateral conflict over territorial sovereignty and maritime rights in the South China Sea intensified dramatically. At its core are China and the Philippines, since the latter took the unprecedented step of bringing a case before the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) against China in early 2013, against the express desire of its opponent. The aftermath of this step was that bilateral relations chilled to an all-time-low, with China retali- ating by escalating its activity in the disputed areas: small low-tide elevations were transformed into huge artificial islands and equipped with fortified harbors and airports that massively extend the op- erational capacity of the Chinese Navy and Airforce.

  • 495 Talitha Espiritu It Has Almost Become a Truism That Philippine
    Book Reviews 495 Talitha Espiritu, Passionate Revolutions: The Media and The Rise And Fall Of The Marcos Regime. Athens, Ohio: Ohio University Press [Ohio University Research in International Studies, Southeast Asia Series 132], 2017, 276 pp. ISBN 9780896803121, price: USD 32.95 (paperback). It has almost become a truism that Philippine traditional politics is infused with, and even fueled by, emotion. Officials are addressed with kin terms, and criteria for holding office are framed through idioms of goodness, trust, and even having “heart.” A comprehensive history of this phenomenon is still wait- ing to be written, but Talitha Espiritu’s Passionate Revolutions is a good place to begin. Espiritu’s thesis is simple: both the rise and fall of Ferdinand Marcos saw the vigorous activation of “political emotion” in cinema, in journalism, and in the public “performances” of electoral campaigns and student demonstra- tions (both as performances as such and as captured by print and television reportage). The book explicitly focuses upon ‘how political emotions operate in official and popular forms of nationalism’ through ‘national allegory, melo- dramatic politics, and sentimental publicity’ (p. 3) and in what ways these were used in support of, and to resist against, the dictatorship. Drawing primarily from Lauren Berlant’s writings on “true feeling” (2001) and generally from the “affective turn” in cultural studies, Espiritu argues for a more categorical con- sideration of the emotive dimension of this era—a theme that is only implicitly broached (though nevertheless almost always present) in most other standard accounts. The first three chapters detail Marcos’ ascent and consolidation of power.
