Colonial Contractions: the Making of the Modern Philippines, 1565–1946
Colonial Contractions: The Making of the Modern Philippines, 1565–1946 Colonial Contractions: The Making of the Modern Philippines, 1565–1946 Vicente L. Rafael Subject: Southeast Asia, Philippines, World/Global/Transnational Online Publication Date: Jun 2018 DOI: 10.1093/acrefore/9780190277727.013.268 Summary and Keywords The origins of the Philippine nation-state can be traced to the overlapping histories of three empires that swept onto its shores: the Spanish, the North American, and the Japanese. This history makes the Philippines a kind of imperial artifact. Like all nation- states, it is an ineluctable part of a global order governed by a set of shifting power rela tionships. Such shifts have included not just regime change but also social revolution. The modernity of the modern Philippines is precisely the effect of the contradictory dynamic of imperialism. The Spanish, the North American, and the Japanese colonial regimes, as well as their postcolonial heir, the Republic, have sought to establish power over social life, yet found themselves undermined and overcome by the new kinds of lives they had spawned. It is precisely this dialectical movement of empires that we find starkly illumi nated in the history of the Philippines. Keywords: Philippines, colonialism, empire, Spain, United States, Japan The origins of the modern Philippine nation-state can be traced to the overlapping histo ries of three empires: Spain, the United States, and Japan. This background makes the Philippines a kind of imperial artifact. Like all nation-states, it is an ineluctable part of a global order governed by a set of shifting power relationships. -
Reconstructing Proto-Oceanic Kinship
ALTERNATIVE PASTS: RECONSTRUCTING PROTO-OCEANIC KINSHIP James West Turner The University of Hawaii–West Oahu Allen has outlined a world-historical theory of kinship in which the earliest kinship systems are assumed to have been tetradic. Such a system is defined by alternate generation, prescriptive, and classificatory equations and is characterized by bilat- eral cross cousin marriage. Over time these three types of genealogical equations have tended to breakdown in exactly this order. That is, generational equations tend to be the first to breakdown. While supporting some aspects of Allen’s analysis, Hage has argued that the Dravidian systems of Oceania, such as those found in Fiji, challenge the assumption of this directionality in the transformation of kinship systems. Hage’s argument was based on the assumption that Proto- Oceanic kinship reflected a rule of prescriptive asymmetric alliance, an interpreta- tion based on Blust’s linguistic reconstructions. This article examines a Dravidian system from Fiji and questions whether it is derived from an asymmetric ancestral system. It also provides an alternative view of Proto-Oceanic kinship and its regional transformations. (Kinship transformations, Dravidian kinship terminolo- gies, Fiji, comparative Austronesian studies) KINSHIP SYSTEMS, EVOLUTION, AND DEEP HISTORY The circumstance that originally gave the modern discipline of anthropology shape and purpose was a revolution in scientific understanding of the antiquity of man (Trautmann 2001). The publication of Darwin’s Origin of Species out- lined the processes by which the diversity of living things could have arisen from a single type of ancestral organism. These processes would have required eons, a time scale made available to Darwin by the uniformitarian geology of Hutton and Lyell. -

Possible Models of Early Austronesian Social Organization
Possible Models of Early Austronesian Social Organization ]. FOX THIS PAPER IS addressed to a consideration of the possibilities of comparison. I Since cur- rent typologies contemporary Austronesian societies influence judgment on ble earlier forms of Austronesian society, it is these typologies and the bases for them that require examination if are make any attempt at the construction of prior structures. In this paper, I wish to take as my starting point the important article on early Aus tronesian social organization by Blust (1980). Instead of discussing specific aspects of the argument of this paper, on which I have already commented at some length (Fox 1980), I wish to consider some of Blust's underlying assumptions. My intention is to consider alternative assumptions. \Vith this as background, I then wish to indulge in a hypothetic consideration and manipulation of possible models of Austronesian social organization. Other disciplines regularly have recourse to such theoretical exercises and I would argue that in the present, and as yet early, stage of our understanding this is a particularly salutary proce dure. To avoid an element of vacuousness, however, I propose to rely on an early, but nonetheless still useful, paper by Kroeber (1919) on kinship in the Philippines as an appropriate source for constructing a model that can be compared with models drawn from evidence of societies in other parts of the Austronesian world. Finally, I would like to draw on evidence from a larger, ongoing study of the social organization of societies in eastern Indonesia that would tend to support a "genetic" or historical linguistic model of the kind envisioned in my earlier discussion. -
The Virtues of Federalism
SOME ADVANTAGES OF FEDERALISM AND PARLIAMENTARY GOVERNMENT FOR THE PHILIPPINES Jose V. Abueva U.P. Professor Emeritus of Political Science and Public Administration, Chairman of the CMFP Advisory Board, and President of Kalayaan College I. With EDSA 1 we restored an outmoded form of democracy. In the peaceful “people power” revolt from February 22 to 25, 1986, tens of thousands of unarmed Filipinos gathered to defend a small but swelling band of military rebels at the military and police headquarters along Epifanio de los Santos Avenue that cuts through Metro Manila from North to South. United in their cry for “Justice, Freedom and Democracy,” they peacefully immobilized the armed forces of the 13-year Marcos dictatorship. On the fourth day they banished the dictator into exile. Amazed at our extraordinary feat, the world applauded. Some oppressed peoples in Eastern Europe and Asia took heart and followed our example to liberate themselves from tyranny. In January 2001, not only at EDSA in Metro Manila but also in many cities, citizens gathered and employed “people power” once more to bring down a president who was perceived to be abusive and corrupt. Aggrieved citizens felt good once again but “people power” alone could not bring us what we really need as a developing nation and democracy. The restoration of free elections and formal democracy under the 1987 Constitution has not empowered citizens to check or mitigate our pervasive problems of mass poverty, unemployment, corruption, social inequality, injustice, rebellion, and the environment. Underdevelopment and population still force legions of Filipinos to migrate as our country lags farther behind our advanced neighbors in the region. -

An Exploratory Study on the Dominion of American English in the Oldest University in Asia
RESEARCH PAPERS DE-HEGEMONIZING THE HEGEMONIZED: AN EXPLORATORY STUDY ON THE DOMINION OF AMERICAN ENGLISH IN THE OLDEST UNIVERSITY IN ASIA By ALEJANDRO S. BERNARDO University of Santo Tomas, Manila, Philippines. ABSTRACT Because it has been established that there is a local variety of English born in the Philippines, there are crucial debates specifically on what pedagogical standard must be used in teaching English in Philippine schools. In spite of the growing number of researches on Philippine English (PE) and the publication of its own dictionary, it appears that a considerable number of educators, language learners, non-educators, and professionals still deem that the so-called 'Standard English' variety also known as 'ENL' (English as a Native Language) (Kirkpatrick, 2007), and 'inner circle' variety (Erling, 2005) is “innately superior to ESL and EFL varieties and that it therefore, represents a good model for English for people in ESL and EFL contexts to follow” (Kirkpatrick, 2007, p. 28). This study therefore explores the prevailing perceptions of college students and language instructors in the oldest university in the Philippines and in Asia toward the two main varieties of English that thrive in the country – American English (AE) and Philippine English (PE) as well as their motives for learning and teaching the English language. This study shows that a majority of the student and teacher respondents have similar reasons why English is taught and studied in the Philippines and that between AE and PE, AE remains as “the” privileged English variety. This paper also examines more specific contentious issues on (i) the language learners' motives for learning English (ii) reasons why Filipino language teachers and learners privilege AE; and (iii) the Filipino learners and teachers' prevailing unreceptive attitudes towards PE. -

A HISTORY of SCIENCE and TECHNOLOGY in the PHILIPPINES by Olivia C
GE1713 A HISTORY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY IN THE PHILIPPINES by Olivia C. Caoili** Introduction The need to develop a country's science and technology has generally been recognized as one of the imperatives of socioeconomic progress in the contemporary world. This has become a widespread concern of governments especially since the post world war 11 years.1 Among Third World countries, an important dimension of this concern is the problem of dependence in science and technology as this is closely tied up with the integrity of their political sovereignty and economic self-reliance. There exists a continuing imbalance between scientific and technological development among contemporary states with 98 per cent of all research and development facilities located in developed countries and almost wholly concerned with the latter's problems2 Dependence or autonomy in science and technology has been a salient issue in conferences sponsored by the United Nations.3 It is within the above context that this paper attempts to examine the history of science and technology in the Philippines. Rather than focusing simply on a straight chronology of events, it seeks to interpret and analyze the interdependent effects of geography, colonial trade, economic and educational policies and socio-cultural factors in shaping the evolution of present Philippine science and technology. As used in this paper, science is concerned with the systematic understanding and explanation of the laws of nature. Scientific activity centers on research, the end result of which is the discovery or production of new knowledge.4 This new knowledge may or may not have any direct or immediate application.
