  • Mi Manila De Bolsillo
    Revista Filipina • Invierno 2020, volumen 7, número 2 MI MANILA DE BOLSILLO CARLOS P. CELDRÁN Traducción de Esther Zarzo reo que Manila puede ser un reflejo del propio estado mental. Al ser una ciudad de contrastes extremos, es fácil ver cómo puede convertirse en una experiencia personal C intensa. Manila puede ser caótica y espiritual, sucia y divina, austera y majestuosa a la vez. Si aquí no encuentras belleza y poesía, no las encontrarás en otro lugar. Bautizada con el nombre de una flor blanca, fue fundada hace 446 años por el conquistador vasco Miguel López de Legazpi. Es difícil creer que la gigantesca Metro Manila de hoy fuera antaño una pequeña aldea musulmana gobernada por un hombre llamado Rajá Sulayman. Muy pronto, y no sin conflictos, el sistema islámico malayo de Rajá Sulayman dio paso al dominio cristiano del conquistador español Miguel López de Legazpi en el año 1571. Durante los siguientes 300 años, Manila, ahora conocida como Intramuros (“dentro de la muralla” en latín) sería la sede del poder español en el archipiélago. Altos cargos gubernamentales y soldados controlaban el estado, mientras que sacerdotes y majestuosas catedrales controlaban el alma de las islas, ahora llamadas Filipinas (desde el rey Felipe II). Las murallas de madera originales serían reemplazadas por toba volcánica tallada, como las chozas y mezquitas de bambú cedieron ante siete iglesias católicas barrocas rodeadas de mansiones de piedra caliza, madera noble y caracolas. La ciudad crecería en tamaño y comprensión hasta el final del dominio español. Hacia el siglo XIX, el término Manila englobaba también los distritos circundantes fuera de la ciudad amurallada, los considerados extramuros (“fuera de las murallas”) respecto de los intramuros originales.

Mateo University of San Francisco – Master of Arts in International Studies – December 2016 ABSTRACT 350 years, the Philippines was colonized by Spain and the United States. The Philippines became a sovereign nation in 1946 yet, fifty years later, colonial teachings continue to oppress Filipinos due to their colonial mentality (CM.) CM is an internalized oppression among Filipinos in which they experience an automatic preference for anything Western—European or U.S. American— and rejection of anything Filipino.

  • Religion, Politics and Sex: Contesting Catholic Teaching and Transnational Reproductive Health Norms in the Contemporary Philippines
    Religion, Politics and Sex: Contesting Catholic Teaching and Transnational Reproductive Health Norms in the Contemporary Philippines By Jonathan Tseung-Hao Chow A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ron E. Hassner, Chair Professor Vinod K. Aggarwal Professor Jerome P. Baggett Professor Edwin M. Epstein Professor Steven Weber Fall 2011 © 2011 by Jonathan Tseung-Hao Chow All rights reserved. Abstract Religion, Politics and Sex: Contesting Catholic Teaching and Transnational Reproductive Health Norms in the Contemporary Philippines By Jonathan Tseung-Hao Chow Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Ron E. Hassner, Chair How does religion shape transnational norms and the ways in which they are contested or adopted? Although constructivist international relations theory has made significant strides in understanding the role of norms in shaping political outcomes, there has been little research into how religion affects norm dynamics. This dissertation seeks to address this gap by developing a theory of “religious norms”, which I define as standards of proper behavior that arise from actors’ religious beliefs. I argue that while religious norms bear many similarities to secular norms, they differ in that believers understand them to emanate from the highest authority of all, that of the sacred. This can lead religious adherents to treat religious norms as having overriding importance, especially when they perceive them to be under attack from competing norms. When this happens, religious adherents can frame the religious norm as highly salient, constitutive of the faith and under threat, a process that I call “defensive sacralization”.

  • The Cultural Heritage-Oriented Approach to Economic
    Arts and Culture: Heritage, Practices and Futures Presented at the 10th DLSU Arts Congress De La Salle University Manila, Philippines February 16, 2017 De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines The Cultural Heritage-Oriented Approach to Economic Development in the Philippines: A Comparative Study of Vigan, Ilocos Sur and Escolta, Manila Geoffrey Rhoel Cruz [email protected] Mapua Institute of Technology Manila, The Philippines Abstract: Goal 11 of the 2015 Sustainable Development Goals prescribes that culture matters. However, the case of Escolta, Manila presents otherwise. This paper investigates the ways how cultural heritage can be a driver for economic development in the Philippines following the Van Der Borg and Russo’s (2005) Culture-Oriented Economic Development (COED) framework. It stresses the interrelationship of inner cultural cluster dynamics, economic impacts, and socio-environmental impacts which provides for a cycle composed of culture promoting development and in return development fostering culture, then leading to development. The case of Escolta, Manila was compared to the case of Vigan, Ilocos Sur using the one-off initiative framework provided by UNESCO World Heritage Centre for heritage conservation. The results revealed that it is the lack of interest of property owners in Escolta, Manila as the principal shareholders that makes built-heritage conservation unmanageable. Since most built heritages are privately owned and have not been granted heritage status by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP), efforts to revive Escolta face significant threats. Thus there is a need for concrete legislative frameworks to address such apathy. Interestingly, the results corroborated the findings of Palaña (2015) explaining why it is easy for owners to sell the property or leave it to deteriorate than be burdened by its preservation costs without any definite return of investment.
