  • Discordant Order: Manila's Neo Patrimonial Urbanism
    Peter Murphy Pre-Publication Archive This is a pre-publication article. It is provided for researcher browsing and quick reference. The final published version of the article is available at: ‘Discordant Order: Manila’s Neo Patrimonial Urbanism’, Thesis Eleven: Critical Theory and Historical Sociology 112 (London: Sage, 2012), pp 10-34. 1 Discordant Order: Manila’s Neo Patrimonial Urbanism Peter Murphy and Trevor Hogan Manila is one of the world’s most fragmented, privatized and un-public of cities. Why is this so? This paper contemplates the seemingly immutable privacy of the city of Manila, and the paradoxical character of its publicity. Manila is our prime exemplar of the twenty-first century mega-city whose apparent disorder discloses a coherent order which we here call ‘neo- patrimonial urbanism’. Manila is a city where poor and rich alike have their own government, infrastructure, and armies, the shopping malls are the simulacra of public congregations once found in cathedrals and plazas, and where household order is matched by streetside chaos, and personal cleanliness wars with public dirt. We nominate the key characteristics of this uncanny approximation of chaotic and discordant order – a polyphonous and polyrhythmic social order but one lacking harmony – and offer a historical sociology, a genealogy that traces an emblematic pattern across the colonizing periods of its emergent urban forms into the contemporary impositions of gated zones and territories. The enduring legacy of patrimonial power to Manila is to be found in the households and on the streets that undermine and devalue public forms of social power in favour of the patriarch and his householders ( now relabeled as ‘shareholders‘ in ‘public companies’) at the cost of harmonious, peaceable and just public order.

  • Nytårsrejsen Til Filippinerne – 2014
    Nytårsrejsen til Filippinerne – 2014. Martins Dagbog Dorte og Michael kørte os til Kastrup, og det lykkedes os at få en opgradering til business class - et gammelt tilgodebevis fra lidt lægearbejde på et Singapore Airlines fly. Vi fik hilst på vore 16 glade gamle rejsevenner ved gaten. Karin fik lov at sidde på business class, mens jeg sad på det sidste sæde i økonomiklassen. Vi fik julemad i flyet - flæskesteg med rødkål efterfulgt af ris á la mande. Serveringen var ganske god, og underholdningen var også fin - jeg så filmen "The Hundred Foot Journey", som handlede om en indisk familie, der åbner en restaurant lige overfor en Michelin-restaurant i en mindre fransk by - meget stemningsfuld og sympatisk. Den var instrueret af Lasse Hallström. Det tog 12 timer at flyve til Singapore, og flyet var helt fuldt. Flytiden mellem Singapore og Manila var 3 timer. Vi havde kun 30 kg bagage med tilsammen (12 kg håndbagage og 18 kg i en indchecket kuffert). Jeg sad ved siden af en australsk student, der skulle hjem til Perth efter et halvt år i Bergen. Hans fly fra Lufthansa var blevet aflyst, så han havde måttet vente 16 timer i Københavns lufthavn uden kompensation. Et fly fra Air Asia på vej mod Singapore forulykkede med 162 personer pga. dårligt vejr. Miriams kuffert var ikke med til Manilla, så der måtte skrives anmeldelse - hun fik 2200 pesos til akutte fornødenheder. Vi vekslede penge som en samlet gruppe for at spare tid og gebyr - en $ var ca. 45 pesos. Vi kom i 3 minibusser ind til Manila Hotel, hvor det tog 1,5 time at checke os ind på 8 værelser.

In a statement over the weekend, the DENR said mining firms have pooled together the remaining funds for their respective SDMP to assist their host and neighboring communities during the community quarantine imposed to contain the spread of Covid-19. To date, the mining sector has extended assistance to more than 1.4 million households and frontliners across the country. The DENR’s Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) reported that as of July 8, some 1.2 million households have been provided with food packs, and vegetables and garden kits through the relief fund. This exceeded the initial target of around 1.184 million beneficiaries by more than 16,000, the MGB said. On top of this, the MGB said that close to 210,000 frontliners have been provided with personal protective equipment and medical supplies. Acting MGB Director Wilfredo Moncano had authorized mining compnies to realign their unutilized SDMP funds to help the national government in its fight against Covid-19. “The SDMP fund has components that can be sacrificed and realigned to respond and assist the clamor of the government and the community for assistance,” Moncano said, adding that 90 percent of the pooled SDMP funds have been utilized so far.
