Philippines. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper attempts to describe and analyze selected social performances during the Philippines’ hosting of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) 2015 Summit in Manila, particularly the staging of “Padugo” (bloodletting) ritual by Lumads anti-APEC protesters and the deploying of Katy Perry’s “Roar” by the Civil Disturbance Management (CDM) Unit of the Philippine National Police (PNP). By applying social performance theory, I argued here that rebuffing and sidetracking performances of Padugo and Roar are ultimately socio-political acts, which are both always performative. These social performances represent competing versions of the social order, attempting to find resonance beyond the actual performances, as such could possibly influence public opinion and transform the socio-cultural, economic, and/or political status quo. Keywords: Social Performance, Performance Theory, Protest Ritual, Public Order Policing. INTRODUCTION ethnic dance of the Igorots rendered by the Ramon Obusan Folkloric Group, not even Ballet The Philippines became the world's biggest Manila's interpretation of 'Anting-Anting' or stage in the hosting of Asia-Pacific Economic amulet.

Data can show that Filipinos are better off in the past decades than now even without CCT.” Groups call Ombudsman to conduct investigation on violent demolitions Published on April 27, 2012 bulatlat.com “We sympathize with the residents of Silverio Compound, where one person was killed in the demolition,” Estrelita Bagasbas, president of the September 23 Movement, said. “We call on Mayor Bernabe [of Paranaque City] to claim responsibility for what happened, because we will not stop condemning these events.” Jocy Lopez QC police chief letter to Ombudsman triggers alarm for demolition of homes Published on November 1, 2012 remate.ph “We have reasons to believe the reported demolition of our homes yesterday was not a false alarm. The authorities are testing the water to learn of our defense plan against demolition of structures along Agham Road. They retracted from their plan after they learned that the residents of North Triangle were prepared to do everything to fail the demolition, unlike what happened along BIR Road,” said Lopez. QC’s urban poor holding on to Roxas’s ‘promise’ Published on October 30, 2012 Jocy Lopez, a local leader of Kadamay-North Triangle, warned that the violence will be inevitable if the demolition crew will force their way into their communities to tear down their houses.

  • The Closing of Civic Space in the Philippines
    1 THE CLOSING OF CIVIC SPACE IN THE PHILIPPINES 2 Cover Photo Statue of Jose Rizal, Rizal Memorial Park, Cooper River Park, New Jersey. José Protasio Rizal Mercado y Alonso Realonda was an inspiration to the Filipino people in the late 1880's and 1890's for leading the Propaganda Movement. He did not live to see the liberation of the Philippines from colonial rule, as he was tried and executed two years beforehand for the act of sedition. His martyrdom further sparked outrage against Spanish rule in the country and would ultimately answer the question as to whether or not there was any alternative to independence for colonial Filipinos.
