No. (63-2) 743-8438 Email: [email protected] Final Destination Towards the end of 2011, Northern Mindanao suffered massive flooding that caused more than a thousand people dead and leaving several thousands more homeless. Some people are made to believe that this is another sign that the end of the world will come this year. December 21, 2012 is a date that is well known globally. Several hundred years ago, the Ancient Mayans predicted the apocalypse on this date. With their 5,125 year old calendar resetting itself to 0.0.0.0 on this date, many are preparing for the worst. However, the legitimacy of this Mayan prophesy is deemed questionable. Are we really in for our final destination? That is also the question that emerged from the Department of Health officials at the start of the New Year. On the first working day, three Department Personnel Orders (DPOs) were issued to everyone's surprise, including those affected.

  • The Sovereign Trickster
    The Journal of Asian Studies Vol. 78, No. 1 (February) 2019: 141–166. © The Association for Asian Studies, Inc., 2019 doi:10.1017/S0021911818002656 The Sovereign Trickster VICENTE L. RAFAEL In our current moment, authoritarian figures loom large. One of them is Philippine Presi- dent Rodrigo Duterte. He seems to embody two notions of sovereignty. One is related to law, the other to norms: on the one hand, the power of taking exception to the former, decid- ing who will live and who will die; on the other hand, the freedom from the limits of the latter by way of dissipation, irresponsibility, and excess. This article explores the double sources of his power with reference to the works of Michel Foucault and Achille Mbembe. While most of Foucault’s work has focused on Europe, Mbembe has written about postcolonial conditions in ways that make critical use of Foucault. Drawing from their writings, this article situates Duterte as a “sovereign trickster” who seeks to dominate death while monopolizing laughter. Finally, this article speculates on the comparative usefulness of this figure of the sovereign trickster with regard to President Donald Trump, whose form of tricksterism derives, the author argues, from the tradition of blackface minstrelsy. Keywords: death, drug war, Duterte, Foucault, Mbembe, Philippines, sovereignty, trickster, Trump Justice pursues the body beyond all possible pain. — Michel Foucault, Discipline and Punish Duterte: May Utak sa Bayag, May Bayag sa Utak [Duterte: Brains in the balls and balls in the brains]. — Duterte campaign bumper sticker, 2016 PROVINCIALIZING FOUCAULT OR THE LAST FEW years, I have been teaching a course on Filipino histories during Fthe same term that I have been leading a reading seminar on Michel Foucault at my university.
