EUROPEAN POLICY BRIEF COMPETING INTEGRATIONS IN SOUTHEAST ASIA The Erosion of Liberalism and the Rise of Duterte in the Philippines This brief situates the rise and continued popularity of President Rodrigo Duterte within an intellectual history of Philippine liberalism. First, the history of the Philippine liberal tradition is examined beginning in the nineteenth century before it became the dominant mode of elite governance in the twentieth century. It then argues that “Dutertismo” (the dominant ideology and practice in the Philippines today) is both a reaction to, and an assault on, this liberal tradition. It concludes that the crisis brought about by the election of Duterte presents an opportunity for liberalism in the Philippines to be reimagined to confront the challenges faced by this country of almost 110 million people.

  • The Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism
    Social Ethics Society Journal of Applied Philosophy Special Issue, December 2018, pp. 181-206 The Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism (PCIJ) and ABS-CBN through the Prisms of Herman and Chomsky’s “Propaganda Model”: Duterte’s Tirade against the Media and vice versa Menelito P. Mansueto Colegio de San Juan de Letran [email protected] Jeresa May C. Ochave Ateneo de Davao University [email protected] Abstract This paper is an attempt to localize Herman and Chomsky’s analysis of the commercial media and use this concept to fit in the Philippine media climate. Through the propaganda model, they introduced the five interrelated media filters which made possible the “manufacture of consent.” By consent, Herman and Chomsky meant that the mass communication media can be a powerful tool to manufacture ideology and to influence a wider public to believe in a capitalistic propaganda. Thus, they call their theory the “propaganda model” referring to the capitalist media structure and its underlying political function. Herman and Chomsky’s analysis has been centered upon the US media, however, they also believed that the model is also true in other parts of the world as the media conglomeration is also found all around the globe. In the Philippines, media conglomeration is not an alien concept especially in the presence of a giant media outlet, such as, ABS-CBN. In this essay, the authors claim that the propaganda model is also observed even in the less obvious corporate media in the country, disguised as an independent media entity but like a chameleon, it © 2018 Menelito P.

    Asymmetrical Interests, Disjointed Capacities: the Central-Local Dynamics of Political Violence Sol Iglesias PhD candidate, National University of Singapore Why does political violence occur in a weak state with an unconsolidated democracy? The real puzzle is when it does not occur. I argue that interests and capacity can result in political violence, but why violence is used, when it starts, and why it ends is contingent upon central-local dynamics. Central-local dynamics are the resolution of strategic and particularistic interests coupled with the capacity afforded by powerful national and local political actors to use violence in response to threats. In Northern Luzon, the so-called “Solid North” bailiwick of the Marcos dynasty and its immediate environs, elections account for most of the violence that occurs. Interactions between national and local elites were visible during elections, but account for little else in the intervals between them. Levels of violence were relatively low, the lowest across the cases. citation In Eastern Visayas, the New People’s Army (NPA) of the communist insurgency posed a serious threat. Attacks against the militaryfor and police left multiple casualties among state security forces. The army believed that the NPA had infiltrated hundreds of villages and compromised locally elected officials. The central government stepped up its counter-insurgency operations, brutally and illegally targeting civilians. The NPA was eventually drivenNot down , their ranks crippled further after successive natural calamities. In Central- Luzon, state security forces were directed against civilians and community organizers to protect economic interests of powerful local politicians—not least of which was the Cojuangco-Aquino family.

  • Kris Aquino and The/As a Philippine Horror Genre Louie Jon A
    Kris Aquino and the/as a Philippine Horror Genre Louie Jon A. Sanchez Ana Felisa E. Lorenzo & John Andrew Del Prado (Translators) This paper discusses Kris Aquino as text vis-à-vis as a unique horror genre, within the context of her title as the “Philippine Box Office Horror Queen.” While foregrounding comprehensive arguments about Aquino’s textuality, the essay also reveals her cinematic history, which has crowned Aquino as the queen of the genre, which the author calls, pelikula ng lagim [translation]. This cinematic history is used as a narrative guide in constructing an in-depth scrutiny on the concepts of genre, lagim, and the pelikula ng lagim. The author strategically plays with these concepts, thus heightening their meaning, while revealing the rich, covert discourse of Aquino as a genre that has launched itself as “a culture of kasarian” [literally, gender, but by way of a Filipino root word, sari, variety, or more appropriately, polysemy], highlighted in the two franchise Feng Shui movies (Roño, 2004, 2014), where she played the heroine. While these movies may be said to have placed the Philippines into the realm of Asian Horror Films, they also present Aquino as a text that is “becoming a complete genre.” Keywords: Kris Aquino, tekstuwalidad, pelikula ng lagim, genre, Feng Shui A generic look at Kris Aquino This essay may begin by setting its key words. First, genre. On one hand, its definition is no secret, although there are new ways of looking at this word, which is closely linked to writing, even the “writing” created through the practice of reading.
