Maaari bang ilahad mo sa amin ang ilang bagay tungkol sa pinagmulan ng iyong pamilya? Sinu-sino ang iyong mga magulang? Ano ang katayuang panlipunan ng iyong pamilya? S: Ipinanganak ako noong Pebrero 8, 1939 sa Cabugao, Ilocos Sur sa Hilagang Luzon. Ang aking amang si Salustiano Serrano Sison ay namatay noong 1958 sa gulang na limampu't siyam na taon.

  • Interview with Ronald D. Palmer
    Library of Congress Interview with Ronald D. Palmer The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project AMBASSADOR RONALD D. PALMER Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: May 15, 1992 Copyright 1998 ADST Q: This is May 15, 1990. This is an interview with Ambassador Ronald D. Palmer at his office at George Washington University. The interview is being done on behalf of the Foreign Affairs Oral History Program and I am Charles Stuart Kennedy. Mr. Ambassador I wonder if you would give me something about your background—where you come from, where you were educated, etc.? PALMER: I am from southwestern Pennsylvania. My father's family comes from Fayette County and my mother's family from Westmoreland County. My paternal grandmother's family is from German Township which, as the name implies, was settled by Germans. Her family dates from 1760 in the region, my mother's family comes from Fauquier County in Virginia and settled in Pennsylvania in about 1900. I was actually born in Uniontown, Pennsylvania. This was an area through which the Underground Railroad went from the early part of the 19th century until the end of the Civil War. Of course, some people say that the Underground Railroad did not exist until it was officially declared to exist by William Lloyd Garrison or someone like that. Q: But it had to have been going for a much longer time. Interview with Ronald D. Palmer http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib000896 Library of Congress PALMER: Oh, quite, quite. I think I may have mentioned that I have been doing some family history research and it is quite interesting to see the waxing and waning of the black population.

We are required to universalize our particulars and particularize our universals simultaneously and in a kind of constant dialectical exchange, which allows us to find new syntheses that are then of course instantly called into question. It is not an easy game.” - Immanuel Wallerstein in EUROPEAN UNIVERSALISM: The Rhetoric of Power3 “Sec.2.

  • 02-25-1920 Philip Habib.Indd
    This Day in History… February 25, 1920 Happy Birthday, Philip Habib American diplomat Philip Charles Habib was born on February 25, 1920, in Brooklyn, New York. He was a respected peace negotiator and special envoy for 30 years and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his life’s work. After graduating from high school, Habib worked as a shipping clerk. He then went on to study forestry at the University of Idaho. He graduated in 1942 and shortly after joined the US Army to serve From the Distinguished American Diplomats Issue in World War II. Habib eventually reached the rank of captain before being discharged in 1946. Using his G.I. Bill, Habib went to the University of California to get a Ph.D. in agricultural economics. When Habib was a student at the University of California, recruiters for the US Foreign Service visited the school. Habib had never considered a career in diplomacy, but he enjoyed the challenge of taking tests. He ended up scoring in the top 10% on the Foreign Service Exam and decided to follow that career path. Starting in 1949, Habib took assignments in Canada, New Zealand, and South Korea. By 1965, he was the chief political advisor to Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge and was serving in Vietnam. Habib studied how the war was affecting the country and convinced President Lyndon Johnson to decrease his bombing of North Vietnam. Habib then went on to serve as the US ambassador to South Korea from 1971 to 1974 and assistant secretary for East Asian and Pacific affairs from 1974 to 1976.
