  • Martial Law and the Communist Parties of the Philippines, 1959–1974
    Crisis of Revolutionary Leadership: Martial Law and the Communist Parties of the Philippines, 1959–1974 By Joseph Paul Scalice A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in South and Southeast Asian Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Associate Professor Jerey Hadler, Chair Professor Peter Zinoman Professor Andrew Barshay Summer 2017 Crisis of Revolutionary Leadership: Martial Law and the Communist Parties of the Philippines, 1957-1974 Copyright 2017 by Joseph Paul Scalice 1 Abstract Crisis of Revolutionary Leadership: Martial Law and the Communist Parties of the Philippines, 1959–1974 by Joseph Paul Scalice Doctor of Philosophy in South and Southeast Asian Studies University of California, Berkeley Associate Professor Jerey Hadler, Chair In 1967 the Partido Komunista ng Pilipinas (pkp) split in two. Within two years a second party – the Communist Party of the Philippines (cpp) – had been founded. In this work I argue that it was the political program of Stalinism, embodied in both parties through three basic principles – socialism in one country, the two-stage theory of revolution, and the bloc of four classes – that determined the fate of political struggles in the Philippines in the late 1960s and early 1970s and facilitated Marcos’ declaration of Martial Law in September 1972. I argue that the split in the Communist Party of the Philippines was the direct expression of the Sino-Soviet split in global Stalinism. The impact of this geopolitical split arrived late in the Philippines because it was initially refracted through Jakarta.

  • Appendix 4.5 Citizenship of Justice Claudio Teehankee Sr
    APPENDIX 4.5 CITIZENSHIP OF JUSTICE CLAUDIO TEEHANKEE SR. 479 Kasarinlan: Philippine Journal of Third World Studies 2012–13 (27–28): 479–484 APPENDIX 4.5 CITIZENSHIP OF JUSTICE CLAUDIO TEEHANKEE SR. In 1982, the justices of the Supreme Court resigned in toto because chief justice Enrique Fernando had authorized the adjustment of the bar exam score of Gustavo Ericta, son of justice Vicente Ericta, thus giving the younger Ericta a passing mark. Majority of the justices—even constant dissenter Justice Claudio Teehankee Sr.—were reinstated. However, the issue of Teehankee’s citizenship—which had cropped up before when he was to be appointed by Ferdinand Marcos as undersecretary in the department of justice—was resurrected while Teehankee’s reappointment was in process. After resolving the issue twice before, the issue was raised again, apparently by Marcos himself, when Teehankee was up for consideration for the position of chief justice given his seniority (see Reed 1985). This suggests that Marcos was perfectly comfortable with Teehankee being the Court’s token dissenter, but he could not tolerate having the Court’s primus inter pares be an opponent of his regime.
