  • 'New Society' and the Philippine Labour Export Policy (1972-1986)
    EDUCATION IN THE ‘NEW SOCIETY’ AND THE PHILIppINE LABOUR EXPORT POLICY (1972-1986) EDUCATION IN THE ‘NEW SOCIETY’ AND THE PHILIPPINE LABOUR EXPORT POLICY (1972-1986) Mark Macaa Kyushu University Abstract: The ‘overseas Filipino workers’ (OFWs) are the largest source of US dollar income in the Philippines. These state-sponsored labour migrations have resulted in an exodus of workers and professionals that now amounts to approximately 10% of the entire country’s population. From a temporary and seasonal employment strategy during the early American colonial period, labour export has become a cornerstone of the country’s development policy. This was institutionalised under the Marcos regime (1965-1986), and especially in the early years of the martial law period (1972-81), and maintained by successive governments thereafter. Within this context, this paper investigates the relationship between Marcos’ ‘New Society’ agenda, the globalization of migrant labour, and state sponsorship of labour exports. In particular, it analyses the significance of attempts made to deploy education policy and educational institutions to facilitate the state’s labour export drive. Evidence analyzed in this paper suggests that sweeping reforms covering curricular policies, education governance and funding were implemented, ostensibly in support of national development. However, these measures ultimately did little to boost domestic economic development. Instead, they set the stage for the education system to continue training and certifying Filipino skilled labour for global export – a pattern that has continued to this day. Keywords: migration, labour export, education reforms, Ferdinand Marcos, New Society Introduction This paper extends a historical analysis begun with an investigation of early Filipino labour migration to the US and its role in addressing widespread poverty and unemployment (Maca, 2017).

  • Racial Minority Immigrant Acculturation: Examining Filipino Settlement Experiences in Canada Utilizing a Community-Focused Acculturation Framework
    Community Psychology in Global Perspective CPGP, Comm. Psych. Glob. Persp. Vol 4, Issue 1, 66 – 84 RACIAL MINORITY IMMIGRANT ACCULTURATION: EXAMINING FILIPINO SETTLEMENT EXPERIENCES IN CANADA UTILIZING A COMMUNITY-FOCUSED ACCULTURATION FRAMEWORK Renato M. Liboro By incorporating perspectives from Community Psychology into Berry’s (1997) acculturation framework from Cross-cultural Psychology, a more community-focused acculturation framework was developed and proposed in this essay. Elements from Community Psychology that focus on group-specific settings, community-level analysis, sociocultural resources, sociopolitical forces, and roles of grassroots organizations and host societies in challenging institutional power were consolidated into Berry’s acculturation framework to establish a new framework with a stronger community focus. In a theoretical application utilizing the new community-focused framework, socio- historical accounts of and discourse on Filipino experiences prior to the beginnings of the Filipino diaspora to Canada in the mid-1990s and more recent Filipino immigrant settlement experiences in Canada were used to examine and gain greater understanding of racial minority immigrant acculturation. The theoretical application of the new framework was presented not only to demonstrate the synthesis of elements derived from Cross-cultural and Community Psychology, as well as the methodological difference between Berry’s acculturation framework and the community-focused version proposed by the author, but also to underscore the value of community-level analysis in the study of racial minority immigrant acculturation. Implications for Psychology theory, research, and practice were subsequently presented. Keywords: acculturation framework, community, Filipino-Canadian, racial minority, immigrant 1. Introduction Apart from being a major driving force for population growth, immigration is considered by many countries to be a significant stimulus for innovation and economic progress.

  • The 'Unfinished Revolution' in Philippine Political Discourse
    Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 31, No. I, June 1993 The 'Unfinished Revolution' in Philippine Political Discourse Reynaldo C. ILETo * The February 1986 event that led to Marcos's downfall is usually labelled as the "February Revolution" or the "EDSA Revolution." On the other hand, all sorts of analyses have argued to the effect that the "EDSA Revolution" cannot be called a revolution, that it can best be described as a form of regime-change, a coup d'etat, a restoration, and so forth [see Carino 1986]. Yet to the hundreds of thousands of Filipinos from all social classes who massed on the streets that week there seemed to be no doubt that they were "making revolution" and that they were participating in "people power." For the revolution to be, it sufficed for them to throw caution aside (bahala na), to confront the tanks and guns of the state, to experience a couple of hours of solidarity with the anonymous crowd, and to participate in exorcising the forces of darkness (i. e., the Marcos regime). Should the business of naming the event a "revolution" be understood, then, simply in terms of its political referent? Whatever the reality of the processes enveloping them, the crowds on EDSA seemed to readily interpret or locate their experience within a familiar discourse of revolution and mass action. The present essay explores the discursive frame of radical politics from the 1950s up to 1986. I) I hope to explain why "revolution" and "people power" were familiar in 1986, as well as why the imagined "1986 EDSA revolution" also constitutes a departure or break from the Marcos/Communist Party discourse of revolution.

At some point in the second half of the 20th century, the world was in a state of excitement. The reason was that the white government of an African country had just announced the discharge of a prominent freedom fighter with a history within the South African ANC. After decades of tireless struggle for freedom and majority rule, he was convincingly elected to lead his country.

Con esas muertes se ha eliminado a dirigentes de la sociedad civil, incluidos defensores de los derechos humanos, sindicalistas y partidarios de la reforma agraria, se ha intimidado a un gran número de agentes de la sociedad civil y se ha restringido el discurso político en el país. Dependiendo de quién cuenta y cómo lo hace, el número total de ejecuciones se sitúa entre 100 y más de 800. La estrategia de contrainsurgencia y los recientes cambios en las prioridades del sistema de justicia penal revisten especial importancia para entender por qué se siguen produciendo esas muertes. En el Gobierno, muchos han llegado a la conclusión de que varias organizaciones de la sociedad civil son "frentes" del Partido Comunista de Filipinas y su grupo armado, el Nuevo Ejército del Pueblo.

    The Observatory for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders Philippine Alliance of Human Rights Advocates a joint programme (PAHRA) Open Letter to Mrs. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, President of the Philippines, and to the non-State Armed Groups Killings of Political Activists and Human Rights Defenders in the Philippines Paris-Geneva-Quezon City, July 1, 2005 The International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) and the World Organisation Against Torture (OMCT), in the framework of their joint programme, the Observatory for the Protection of Human Rights Defenders, and the Philippine Alliance of Human Rights Advocates (PAHRA), express their deepest concern at the numerous attacks against human rights defenders and political activists in the Philippines since the beginning of the year. While the Government of the Republic of the Philippines has formally acceded to a number of international human rights and humanitarian instruments, non-State actors have openly bounded themselves to respect them, particularly Article 3 common to the four Geneva Conventions of 1949 for the protection of war victims and the 1977 second Additional Protocol relating to the Protection of Victims of Non-International Armed Conflicts. However, both seem unable or unwilling to comply with those international obligations. We are alarmed by the increasing human rights violations in the Philippines. Since January 2005, 15 cases of extra- judicial killings or violent attacks against political activists and human rights defenders, allegedly by both State and non-State agents, have been perpetrated in the Philippines. We express serious concern on the following cases that are brought to your attention: • Fr. Allan Caparro, a human rights advocate, and his wife, Mrs.

  • Decorated Duterte: Digital Objects and the Crisis of Martial Law History in the Philippines
    McKay, D 2020 Decorated Duterte: Digital Objects and the Crisis of Martial Law History in the Philippines. Modern Languages Open, 2020(1): 27 pp. 1–10. DOI: https://doi.org/10.3828/mlo.v0i0.316 GLOBAL CRISIS IN MEMORY Decorated Duterte: Digital Objects and the Crisis of Martial Law History in the Philippines Deirdre McKay Keele University, GB [email protected] Much of the contemporary crisis in coming to terms with the past may have digital origins. We can see this crisis as engineered or assembled through a new series of historical actors: memes and posts on social media and, behind them, the work of trolls and paid influencers. These actors do not travel with first-person accounts of events so much as accumulate in the digital ephemera of daily lives and are then archived as the currency of digital capital- ism, saved in individual online albums, on smart phones and then republished elsewhere. Their circulation and accumulation can be strategically directed by political actors who seek to overturn established historical consensus. Tracing the trajectory of memes featuring the Philippines’ President Duterte, this paper explores how digital objects have contributed to attempts to rework the history of the Martial Law era. Much of the contemporary crisis in coming to terms with the past may have digital origins. We can understand this crisis as one assembled through a new series of historical actors. These actors are memes and posts on social media and, behind them, the trolls and paid influencers whose work it is to create and disseminate them.1 The actions of memes, posts and their makers are delimited by the dynamic regulations of social media platforms.
