With responsibility over the road unclear and the worsening impacts of mining, the imperiled communities are lost as to where to go. Indeed, what brings some up, brings others down.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">This documentary is made by Regina Buco, Solène Crohem, Rhodz Lamarre, and Jeman Malibiran as the latest output of the Video Documentary Internship Project of the UP Third World Studies Center and the University of Montréal.

Mabuhay ang TWSC 👏👏👏👏👏</div><div>--Dr. Mahar Mangahas, Social Weather Stations chair emeritus</div><br />*** </div><div><br />A magnificent volume putting in print the work they originally published online in Vera Files. It’s a massive book filled with copies of archival documents to support the pieces covering multiple aspects of FM and co. --Manolo Quezon, <i>Philippine Daily Inquirer</i> columnist <br /><br />*** </div><div>The articles in the 1.2 kilogram-tome are supported by documents – news reports and diplomatic cables, transcript of congressional investigations and other materials, various fragments of data that, when put together, offer a clear view of the truth that the Marcoses have either hidden or twisted. Some of those articles have been published in VERA Files. --Ellen T. Tordesillas, president, <i>Vera Files </i><br /><br />*** </div><div>Although as a book it is a work of excellent scholarship, it was first a series of online articles, a fine contribution to public history. But the compilation is cohesive. The 31 chapters in the book is perhaps one of the, if not the, most comprehensive reply and exposition of evidence against the major historical distortions, or as the title simply puts, lies about the dictatorship. It is readable and easy to follow. Even one is familiar with some of the arguments of the book, the research was so deep many of the evidence they found were hitherto unknown and will be fresh even to most historians and teachers. --Xiao Chua, historian <br /><br /></div><div>*** </div><div>I'm astounded at the enormity of the book, both as a physical object and in terms of the topics covered in its pages. Kudos to the authors and publisher! --Karlo Mikhail I.

Marcos. It was a subversive space for academics and activists who wanted to carry on critical inquiry into the social conditions that brought forth dictatorship and revolution. Forty-five years later, the TWSC still stands strong as a research center that doubts dogmas through pioneering social science research on complex social realities. </div><div><br /></div><div>This year’s founding anniversary is particularly significant as the namesake and only son of dictator Marcos is poised to capture the presidency, which for twenty-one years was a preserve of their murderous and thieving family. The anniversary also coincides with the final year of an administration that has explicitly chosen violence and pseudo-militarist solutions as the chief means to deal with the nation’s ills, the current pandemic included. As the brutal present may lapse into a dreadful future with the Marcoses, the TWSC, as an institution with a decades-long track record of research, extension, and advocacy activities on countering dictatorship and fostering democracy, is ever more relevant today. </div><div><br /></div><div>Hence, for its forty-fifth anniversary, TWSC commits itself again to its prime mission of bringing critical understanding on how people in unequal societies like the Philippines quest for freedom. And how, in that very quest, it is unable to let go of its dehumanizing and corrupt authoritarian tendencies. With this in mind, the TWSC then would like to share some of its recent research and resources to the academic community and the public in general.</div><div><br /></div><div>Since its fortieth anniversary, the Center has been making strides to make various resources freely accessible, beyond the open-access publications it has been releasing online since the early 2000s, as well as the video recordings of its various training and advocacy programs and the video documentaries it co-produced, which can be viewed at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/2009TWSC" target="_blank">the Center’s YouTube channel</a>. These include project-specific websites that serve as online repositories of papers, data, and media productions. </div><div><br /></div><div>In 2018, the Center put up the website “<a href="https://riles.upd.edu.ph/" target="_blank">The Mass Transit System in Metro Manila: From Tranvia to MRT, 1879-2014”</a>. Besides interview recordings, maps, and written research outputs, the website also features a page dedicated to the historical documentary <a href="https://riles.upd.edu.ph/index.php/tranvia-docu/" target="_blank">Tranvia: Ang Mga Riles sa Kamaynilaan</a>. Other outputs of the program, which concluded in 2019, will be released within 2022. </div><div><br /></div><div>In February 2020, before the start of pandemic lockdowns in the Philippines, the TWSC launched the website <a href="https://dahas.upd.edu.ph/" target="_blank">“Violence, Human Rights, and Democracy in the Philippines”</a>. The website functions as a portal to the various outputs of the project, from published articles to infographics tracking the deaths in President Duterte’s drug war—regularly released via the project’s social media accounts since April 2021. Of late, it also serves as the venue of an online art exhibit, <a href="https://dahas.upd.edu.ph/drug-wars-visual-regime/" target="_blank">“The Drug War’s Visual Regime,”</a> showcasing various artistic representations and interpretations of the current brutal anti-drug campaign. An open-access book compiling the project’s case studies will also be available for download in the website after the project concludes within this year. </div><div><br /></div><div>In between the launch of these two sites, since March 2021, TWSC has been putting out <a href="https://iskomunidad.upd.edu.ph/index.php/Marcos_Regime_Research">resources online related to its Marcos Regime Research</a><a href="https://iskomunidad.upd.edu.ph/index.php/Marcos_Regime_Research" target="_blank"> </a>program. Among these are articles published in online media platforms, primarily Vera Files, that are sometimes accompanied by previously unpublished materials on the Marcoses and their rule, and multimedia productions intended to counter lies in favor of the Marcoses, which TWSC has been releasing via the pages “Did a Marcos Lie Today?” on <a href="http://facebook.com/up.twsc/" target="_blank">Facebook</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/UPThirdWorld">Twitter</a> since September 2018. </div><div><br /></div><div>In September 2020, the Center also made publicly accessible, <a href="http://uptwsc.blogspot.com/p/blog-page_27.html" target="_blank">via its blog</a>, the complete transcripts of the oral history interviews conducted for the project “Economic Policymaking and the Philippine Development Experience, 1960-1985: An Oral History,” which allows public scrutiny of the (sometimes contradictory) claims of the Marcos-era technocrats. A book on how the Marcoses lied their way back to power is also forthcoming in time for the fiftieth anniversary of martial law in September.</div><div><br /></div><div>For those making decisions on how to appraise political actors, especially those who view authoritarianism favorably; for those wanting to have a critical understanding of our current crises; and for those who want to formulate empirically based solutions to our perennial social and political problems: as the TWSC endures, it will continue to equip the scholars and the public with free and accessible knowledge resources drawn from the meticulous work of its staff and its tradition of critical research.</div><p></p>UP Third World Studies Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07686453978799525954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25864836.post-78459367914394692522021-10-06T13:06:00.005+08:002021-10-06T13:16:35.308+08:00The Drug War's Visual Regime: An Online Exhibit<div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDlyJrwJagpFeGA-KNsOim4xfMuk7vJPLPMtdn4QHzsfV4EbcST2i_4Yt7qnO7JCsC3YsJRvKozsF_jRc9E7c__jK5tjMX3FyoEPC-96xIqyfreQ7V3Gp2St9kpaeyUV0xPfsOzQ/" style="font-family: times; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img data-original-height="1350" data-original-width="1800" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDlyJrwJagpFeGA-KNsOim4xfMuk7vJPLPMtdn4QHzsfV4EbcST2i_4Yt7qnO7JCsC3YsJRvKozsF_jRc9E7c__jK5tjMX3FyoEPC-96xIqyfreQ7V3Gp2St9kpaeyUV0xPfsOzQ/w400-h300/launch+pub.png" width="400" /></a></div><div><br /></div>“The works collected here take a slightly different track.

Sa mahigit tatlong dekada, siya ang magiliw na mukhang sumasalubong sa lahat ng pumapasok sa Sentro, ang unang boses na magpapabatid na “Third World” ang natawagan sa telepono. Siya ang araw-araw na katuwang ng mga kasamang kawani sa pagpatakbo ng TWSC.<p></p><p>Nang magretiro siya noong Enero 2019, itinuring na siyang haligi ng TWSC. Sa kanyang ‘di matatawarang dedikasyon at pagkalinga, inagapayan n’ya ang ilang henerasyon ng mga mananaliksik at ang mga namuno sa Sentro. Malugod at masuyo siyang kasama na maagap na tumutugon sa iba’t ibang pakiusap para maisulong ang mga gawain ng TWSC. Likas siyang maalalahanin; walang kaarawan ng mga kasama—at minsan, kahit ng kanilang mga mahal sa buhay—na hindi n’ya maaalala. Dala n’ya ang mga k’wento at gunita ng pang-araw-araw na buhay sa ilalim ng iba't ibang direktor ng Sentro. Siya ang tuwa at palakpak na unang bumabati sa maliit o malaki mang tagumpay ng mga kasama, ang bukas na loob ng damay sa mga panahon ng lungkot at kagipitan. </p><p>Taos pusong nagpapasalamat ang Third World Studies Center kay Ate Bien at sa kanyang pagyao ipinaabot sa kanya ang lahat ng pagmamahal at lubos na pakikiramay sa kanyang mga naiwan.</p><div><br /></div>UP Third World Studies Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07686453978799525954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25864836.post-39521169119883359982021-04-03T13:02:00.002+08:002021-04-06T13:04:28.711+08:00A Running Casualty Count of Duterte's Drug War<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_DaXskFndQwxF-e-s4mSGNmII2u8wnVIQgbt-NcEJ4oHjWv8VawsUQZQfB9DW2BOtSosquZlFwR6POmc6dGcnRP6FldGtz6tuy9eiKJFITbbj9Cgtj9J5ErAkEJXBkZrpnGv4LA/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1592" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_DaXskFndQwxF-e-s4mSGNmII2u8wnVIQgbt-NcEJ4oHjWv8VawsUQZQfB9DW2BOtSosquZlFwR6POmc6dGcnRP6FldGtz6tuy9eiKJFITbbj9Cgtj9J5ErAkEJXBkZrpnGv4LA/w312-h400/167420194_2732301447022803_8724245715381161762_n.png" width="312" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdL0X8QptUZjlEjZaP9P1HoZA5blGaDXxP9wZ_hcxdG6zhXAKen2UL3wLCxCjjby10l5yggmC-jY7fZDrguElUSHchqHi2udyk7sOby2q6vJwjLITavhxZgdilctPk276DWGkSIQ/s2048/169548677_517527822748776_6828937991265945259_n.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdL0X8QptUZjlEjZaP9P1HoZA5blGaDXxP9wZ_hcxdG6zhXAKen2UL3wLCxCjjby10l5yggmC-jY7fZDrguElUSHchqHi2udyk7sOby2q6vJwjLITavhxZgdilctPk276DWGkSIQ/w300-h400/169548677_517527822748776_6828937991265945259_n.png" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div>The killings continue.

Samson, who passed away this morning, September 10, 2020. She was a retired professor of sociology at the University of the Philippines Diliman. Professor Samson also served as deputy director of TWSC from 2017 to 2019. Her active engagement and support for TWSC went back to its early formative years in the late '70s and in the '80s. In 2010, she co-edited with then TWSC director Prof. Teresa S. Encarnacion Tadem the book <i>Marxism in the Philippines: Continuing Engagements</i>. She was also highly instrumental in elevating the standard and the quality of work that went into the publication of TWSC's in-house journal, the <i>Kasarinlan: Philippine Journal of Third World Studies</i>. In 2004 she became the journal's editorial consultant/supervisor, a post she held until her appointment as deputy director. Professor Samson, "Ma'am Lau" to the staff, was as caring to her work colleagues as she was deeply dedicated in turning in scholarly works that were not only well-argued, but must also be well-written (she made a virtue of almost always knowing the precise word or punctuation to use). Disagreements between <i>Kasarinlan</i>'s editorial staff and Professor Samson regarding the journal's content were not uncommon. But it was precisely this constant, but always mutually respectful back-and-forth that continues to drive the staff to be their own worst critics in their research and publications endeavors.

<br />
To celebrate its 43rd founding anniversary today, the Third World Studies Center launches the website <a href="http://dahas.upd.edu.ph/">http://dahas.upd.edu.ph</a>/ as part of its three-year research and advocacy collaboration with Ghent University on "Violence, Human Rights, and Democracy in the Philippines." A multidisciplinary network of academics, long-time activists, and veteran journalists did the research for the project.<br />
<br />
For this soft launch, the Dahas (Violence) website conveys the preliminary information on the project's case studies from different localities across the country, an in-house database on counting the dead in the drug war with downloadable templates and how-to guides, as well as curated scholarly and popular resources on violence in the Philippines.<br />
<br />
TWSC's international peer-reviewed journal <i>Kasarinlan: Philippine Journal of Third World Studies</i> will release a special issue based on select case studies this February. By mid-2020, the Dahas website will also make available to the public an edited volume based on the case studies. Both the journal issue and the book will be available for free online.<br />

President Rodrigo Duterte's words were: "Tell them to ask me." This is what Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo told the Malacañang Press Corps during the 22 April 2019 media briefing when probed for an explanation about the one-page “matrix” containing organizations and names of lawyers and journalists who are allegedly involved in an "oust-Duterte" plot. The journalists were not able to hide their frustration and disbelief, as Panelo kept saying, "It's common sense!," "I don't know!," that is, until he supposedly quoted Duterte, effectively ending the discussion. The oust-Duterte “matrix” is not the first exposé of the president. And his exposés have, for the most part, been in the form of lists that outlined and linked together names of disparate groups and individuals who were decisively his administration’s next “target.” In these lists, contexts and evidence are irrelevant. The president's declarations should be enough. As per Panelo: “Galing kay Presidente kaya paniwalaan n’yo.” This is despite the fact that even some government offices under the president have no knowledge of how these lists came about, from the PNP, the AFP, sometimes all the way to the office of the defense secretary—or even if some information on these lists were blatantly false. If one ever wanted to ask a question about these lists, one has to go ask the president himself. And when the media would indeed go to Duterte the usual response is circuitous and invective-filled. Or worse, they are banned from covering the president and Malacañang-organized events. Then he would come up with a new iteration of his ever-evolving lists and matrices to line up individuals and groups that state forces should go after in retribution for their temerity to ask him a question or challenge his positions with facts, figures, and well-studied policies. For the Duterte administration, there is no opposition; there are only shifting conspiracies that it must relentlessly crush. When the highest office in the land will not bother with explanations and expects its constituents to take at face value any and all information it espouses as truth, what is the media for in its commitment to pursue truth and freedom? When the president construes all forms of critique as simply leftist propaganda, how can human rights organizations and groups of legal advocates fulfill their commitment to justice and democracy? This forum will bring together members of the academe and actors from these maligned organizations to answer one key question as we chart the life of our democratic polity under Duterte: How does one respond to a government that persecutes institutions of citizenship that ask for truth and transparency from its leaders?</div>

<b>"Of Course Imelda and I Denied It"</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For Marcos loyalists and apologists, it was perfectly logical that Marcos would let in only a handful of trusted people into his plans to declare martial law. It was a necessary lie; part of springing the trap against the enemies of the Marcoses. Yet for the Filipinos, this was how the cloak was drawn before the conjugal dictatorship mercilessly stabbed the people in the back. </div>
<br />
Marcos played his martial law cards close to his chest. Yet not too close so as not to allow his main backer, the United States (US), a peek. <br />
<br />
As the course of events will show, Marcos did not declare martial law to save the republic or to bring about a “new society.” It was all about his lust for power and on how he and his family and their ilk used this power to enrich themselves.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div>
<i>Just the Two of Us</i><br />
<br />
If the martial law administrator Juan Ponce Enrile would be believed, the just re-elected president Ferdinand Marcos started planning for martial law in early December 1969 (Enrile 2012, 275-77). It started with Marcos asking Enrile to “study his powers under the commander-in-chief provisions of the [1935] Constitution” since Marcos “was foreseeing an escalation of violence and disorder in the country.” Marcos instructed Enrile that he may ask others to help him but they should conduct the study “discreetly and confidentially.” Enrile enlisted the help of two 1954 <i>magna cum laude </i>graduates from the University of the Philippines (UP) College of Law, Efren Plana and Minerva Gonzaga-Reyes. <br />
<br />
In late January 1970 Enrile submitted to Marcos a compendium bearing the result of the study. A week later, Marcos instructed Enrile “to prepare the documents to install martial law in the country.” Enrile claimed that, working alone (save for Simplicio Taguiam, Marcos’s private and confidential secretary who did the typing), it took him six months to complete what would eventually become Proclamation 1081. <br />
<br />
As the First Quarter Storm raged in 1970, <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.l0096995303?urlappend%3D%253Bseq%3D492&sa=D&ust=1537493624159000&usg=AFQjCNEiHahNeBwyv_8ZjGuY-u0RtoD3Mw">Marcos intimated to the US that he may resort to martial law. </a><br />
<br />
Henry Kissinger, then US President Richard Nixon’s assistant for national security affairs, in a memorandum to the US president dated 7 February 1970, quoted US ambassador to the Philippines Henry Byroade’s conversation with Marcos. Byroade reported “a rambling conversation with a very distraught and unnerved President Marcos.” Kissinger mentioned that Marcos “wanted Byroade’s ‘active help’; Marcos said he might have to impose martial law, and wanted to know if Byroade would ‘stand behind him’.” <br />
<br />
In response, “Byroade reacted cautiously to keep us from being drawn into this situation. He tried discreetly to suggest the need for social programs and land reform, and to head off drastic actions such as martial law.” In a marginal note, Nixon wrote that he “doubts this line’s effectiveness” (emphasis in the original). <br />
<br />
<br />
<i>You’re My Baby</i><br />
<br />
Almost a year later, as related in a <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.l0096995303?urlappend%3D%253Bseq%3D547&sa=D&ust=1537493624150000&usg=AFQjCNHHHmEvBoQPvh1rLwfWrfZmrXR_9Q">15 January 1971 memorandum of conversation</a> involving Nixon, Byroade, and John H. Holdridge, a member of Nixon’s National Security Council, Marcos now asked the White House, and not just Byroade, if the US would oppose or support his martial law plan. <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Ambassador Byroade . . . at the end of his predeparture conversation with Marcos, Marcos had warned him that he might find it necessary to suspend the writ of habeas corpus and establish martial law in the city of Manila—unprecedented steps which had not been taken by any Philippine President since the late ‘40s during the Hukbalahap movement. What Marcos wanted to know was: in the event that he found it necessary to declare martial law in Manila, would the United States back him up, or would it work against him? Ambassador Byroade noted that he had promised Marcos he would bring back the President’s personal reply.<br />
<br />
The President [Nixon] declared that he would “absolutely” back Marcos up, and “to the hilt” so long as what he was doing was to preserve the system against those who would destroy it in the name of liberty. The President [Nixon] indicated that he had telephoned Trudeau of Canada to express this same position. We would not support anyone who was trying to set himself up as a military dictator, but we would do everything we could to back a man who was trying to make the system work and to preserve order. Of course, we understood that Marcos would not be entirely motivated by national interests, but this was something which we had come to expect from Asian leaders. The important thing was to keep the Philippines from going down the tube, since we had a major interest in the success or failure of the Philippine system. Whatever happens, the Philippines was our baby. </blockquote>
In late May 1972, <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.l0096995303?urlappend%3D%253Bseq%3D595&sa=D&ust=1537493624148000&usg=AFQjCNHNa8I7Gk_2U03zpZsjrwJfx629wQ">Byroade had another conversation with Marcos</a> that he reported to the US State Department. And again, Macros “talked of the ‘great upsurge of communist insurgency threat in the country,’ adding that ‘he might have to reinstate martial law. He asked again if we would support him or at least not oppose him.’ To this, Byroade said that he ‘mumbled that our position on that had not changed, but added the hope that he would not find such a move necessary as I thought it would clearly at this time tear the nation apart into opposing factions.’” (In using “reinstate” Byroade may have erred in his report. Unless, of course, he and Marcos were referring to the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus that Marcos did in response to the 21 August 1971 Plaza Miranda bombing.)<br />
<br />
But as September 1972 neared, Marcos became coy. In <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.l0096995303?urlappend%3D%253Bseq%3D596&sa=D&ust=1537493624147000&usg=AFQjCNEFxzPIsFQ1QLba3AzOORMkfeDpvA">a lengthy 15 September 1972 telegram to the US State Department</a>, Byroade related that a day before he sent the telegram he asked Marcos “if he were about to surprise us with a declaration of martial law.”<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
He said no, not under present circumstances. He said he would not hesitate at all in doing so if the terrorist stepped up their activities further, and to a new stage. He said that if a part of Manila were burned, a top official of his Government, or foreign ambassador, assassinated or kidnapped, then he would act very promptly. He said that he questioned Communist capability to move things to such a stage just now . . .</blockquote>
<br />
<i>Suspicious Minds</i><br />
<br />
Yet in public, Marcos was saying the exact opposite of what he told Byroade. In the Notes on the New Society of the Philippines—ostensibly by Marcos but actually written by writer-bureaucrat Adrian Cristobal (see Reyes 2018)—first published in 1973, “Marcos” said,<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
So, on the long night of Sunday, 17 September 1972, it became quite clear to me that the rightist conspiracy and the communist rebellion had almost succeeded in rendering the government impotent to meet any crisis, that in fact this unholy combination, if given just the shortest time, would pronounce the death sentence on the Republic.<br />
<br />
At the end of that September vigil, during which I exhausted all possibilities in my mind, I found my duty—and the responsibility for the nation’s destiny—forced on me by historical circumstances (“Marcos” 1973, 34) </blockquote>
It was a game played by the suspicious with the duplicitous. And <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.l0096995303?urlappend%3D%253Bseq%3D598&sa=D&ust=1537522851333000&usg=AFQjCNGPcn-Frsaa-hugEh6CCzGP_dB8Xg">Byroade was clear-eyed on how it was done</a>: “My own attitude is that, if Marcos can keep his fingers crossed behind his back while making agreements with us, so can we.”<br />
<br />
According to journalists Raymond Bonner (1987) and Stanley Karnow (1989), the American ambassador through a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) mole in Marcos’s inner circle, obtained a copy of the martial law proclamation on 19 September 1972. This was just <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://philippinediaryproject.files.wordpress.com/1972/09/scan0122.jpeg&sa=D&ust=1537524440762000&usg=AFQjCNE2jKc3UibfzAQpn5DKo3ebxfHXRg">a day after Marcos claimed in his diary that they had finalized the plans for the proclamation of martial law. </a><br />
<br />
The following day, 20 September 1972, Byroade met with Marcos. In <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.l0096995303?urlappend%3D%253Bseq%3D604&sa=D&ust=1537523400399000&usg=AFQjCNFEsW_xfn6Qy-dIMi6WYMFQewYIrg">a 21 September 1972 telegram to the US State Department</a>, Byroade said, “Marcos . . . had made no decision to move towards martial law, and he had never considered anything beyond that, such as military rule. He did admit, however, that planning for martial law was at an advanced state.” At the end of the telegram Byroade admitted that he was unsure if he “succeeded in at least postponing new developments.”<br />
<br />
What partly informed Marcos’s hesitation was the fact that Congress was then in session. <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
President Marcos was waiting for Congress to adjourn sine die . . . on Friday, September 22, 1972. It was for that reason that he had not acted on the declaration of martial law. President Marcos wanted Congress to adjourn first before he would proclaim martial law in the country. He wanted to avoid any resistance from Congress once he declared martial law in the country. (Enrile 2012, 377)</blockquote>
But Congress did not adjourn. And Marcos was right in his sense that there could be resistance. But it was a puny one. <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[A] few days after the declaration of martial law, a bipartisan caucus of congressmen and senators was held in the cell of Benigno Aquino, Jr., who had already been arrested and detained in Camp Crame. The caucus deliberated on convening a special session of Congress to declare Presidential Decree 1081, null and void. Aquino’s cell was, of course, bugged; the following day, soldiers secured the legislative building and dismantle the offices, carting away equipment, tables, and chairs. The legislative building was turned into the National Museum. (Daroy 1988, 24)</blockquote>
The inquisitive press was what alarmed Enrile that he eventually advised Marcos that they should put in effect what they have long planned. The press was getting more dogged in pursuing the story of a possible martial law declaration after then Senator Benigno Aquino Jr. made his expose about Oplan Sagittarius on 15 September 1972, a plan for martial law which was leaked to him by sources from the Armed Forces. In fact <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.l0096995303?urlappend%3D%253Bseq%3D600&sa=D&ust=1537525772152000&usg=AFQjCNF1E5a6qvBDT04nKZ-ur79jo5xXHQ">Aquino first brought the information to the US embassy on 12 September 1972 </a>before making it public. US Ambassador Byroade did not believe Aquino (Karnow 1989, 359). <br />
<br />
<br />
<i>I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight</i><br />
<br />
Since the start of 1972, talks of martial law abounded in the chattering class of Manila. It finally descended and exacted its vengeance on Marcos’s enemies in the evening of 22 September until the early morning of 23 September. With his critics in jail and the press silenced, <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/1972/09/23/radio-tv-address-of-president-marcos/&sa=D&ust=1537529699677000&usg=AFQjCNEBi37s9VaxLAwWLM6l2l9Uc1hpzg">Marcos addressed the nation on radio and tv in the early evening of 23 September.</a><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
My countrymen, as of the 21st of this month, I signed Proclamation No. 1081 placing the entire Philippines under martial law. This proclamation was to be implemented upon my clearance and clearance was granted 9 o’clock in the evening of the 22nd, last night.</blockquote>
He let Francisco “Kit” Tatad, his press secretary read the martial law proclamation.<br />
<br />
But when exactly did Marcos sign Proclamation 1081? <br />
<br />
Enrile, in his memoir, seems to have a definitive answer. <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Maj. Roland Pattugalan arrived in my office a little before six o’clock in the afternoon [22 September 1972] . . . He brought with him three large sealed brown envelopes and delivered them to me. I opened the enveloped in his presence.<br />
<br />
The first envelope contained Proclamation No. 1081. This document proclaimed martial law throughout the country. The second envelope contained seven General Orders. The third envelope contained seven Letters of Instructions. All the documents had the signature of President Marcos and carried the seal of his office. (Enrile 2012, 378)</blockquote>
But as is ever true with Enrile, he is a master in giving lies a patina of truth. What he wrote in his memoir contradicts <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://philippinediaryproject.files.wordpress.com/1972/09/tumblr_maqmbjolub1qg9pud.png&sa=D&ust=1537524092335000&usg=AFQjCNG9pluYoW75D2KZRRewGpSKyBuDEw">what Marcos wrote in his diary on the same date</a>. <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Sec. Juan Ponce Enrile was ambushed near Wack-Wack at about 8:00 pm tonight. It was a good thing he was riding in his security car as a protective measure. His first car which he usually uses was the one riddled by bullets from a car parked in ambush.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
He is now at his DND office. I have advised him to stay there.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
And I have doubled the security of Imelda in the Nayon Pilipino where she is giving dinner to the UPI and AP as well as other wire services.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
This makes the martial law proclamation a necessity.</blockquote>
Why was Marcos saying that the proclamation was then a necessity, that it must be done—not that it was done—when Enrile claims that before his supposed ambush, he had already set in motion Marcos’s martial law plans? <br />
<br />
For Enrile, self-serving as ever, it was to allow him to walk back his confession during the February 1986 EDSA Revolution that his ambush was faked. <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Why would I have faked my ambush for? When it happened, the military operation to impose martial law was already going on. I had already delivered Proclamation No. 1081 and all the General Orders and Letters of Instructions to the military leaders. I had already ordered them to proceed with the military operation that carried out the orders of President Marcos to place the entire country under martial law . . . . I honestly did not know why Marcos suddenly decided to cite my ambush in justifying the declaration of martial law when he made his public statement on September 23. There was absolutely no need for it. (Enrile 2012, 380–81)</blockquote>
The latest event mentioned in Proclamation 1081 is the 18 September 1972 Quezon City Hall bombing. If Enrile’s ambush on September 22 really was pivotal to the declaration of martial law, as is often claimed, then one would think that Marcos would have mentioned it in his proclamation. Though if it truly was important, it is odd that it was not mentioned at all in Marcos’s radio-tv address on 23 September. <br />
<br />
<br />
<i>All For Show</i><br />
<br />
But highlighting the ambush makes sense if one would recall what Marcos told the American ambassador more than a week before martial law was declared. Marcos told Byroade that he would declare martial law if “a top official of his Government, or foreign ambassador, [was] assassinated or kidnapped, then he would act very promptly.”<br />
<br />
In the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.cia.gov/library/readingroom/docs/DOC_0005993535.pdf&sa=D&ust=1537517187980000&usg=AFQjCNGuQ7YPJqdY6FXC1UCImFUjBRW6yA">CIA’s daily brief for Nixon on 23 September 1972</a> there was almost a hint of admiration for what Marcos had done, that “Marcos carefully orchestrated the move well in advance.” <br />
<br />
What is clear, despite the contradictions among these accounts and texts, is that Marcos was ready to declare martial law before 21 September 1972, and outright lied about it in public. <br />
<br />
One can argue that Marcos and his inner circle did so because imposing and implementing martial law was a national security concern; they did not want the people they eventually apprehended beginning 22 September 1972 to hide or flee, or for violence to escalate. But was such subterfuge truly necessary? Did not the military already have the power to arrest suspected subversives during that time even without a martial law decree, as they did when they rounded up dozens of student activists in Manila on 17 September 1972 (Villa 1972; De Vera 1972)? Did not everyone concerned (such as Ninoy Aquino) believe that Marcos was going to declare martial law in any case, but did not hide or flee anyway? <br />
<br />
What did Marcos accomplish by making it appear that martial law was not contemplated, but was actually being thoroughly readied behind the scenes, later revealing that he had been planning to declare martial law at least as early as September 17? Did Marcos want to make it appear that he was a master strategist? Was the delayed announcement to the public actually related to optics more than anything else? <br />
<br />
If that was the intent, then at least Marcos succeeded on one person: Ambassador Byroade. “This man Marcos is a chess player, par excellence,” <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.l0096995303?urlappend%3D%253Bseq%3D613&sa=D&ust=1537527360065000&usg=AFQjCNGN9FsGNg5jL9AgNqICEgMBEkAqyw">Byroade conceded</a> after his rope-a-dope with Marcos on the imposition of martial law. <br />
<br />
But forty-six years after the fact, what we have is a cautionary tale of brilliance gone wrong, of diplomatic maneuvers seemingly in pursuit of national interests, of order and progress, only to be revealed as brazen efforts to kowtow to a dictator and deprive a generation of a future that they could have deserved.<br />

Alfred W. McCoy<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>ABSTRACT. The rising global phenomenon of populism has been framed as a reaction </i><i>to the unmet promises of globalization in nominally democratic nations. Rodrigo </i><i>Duterte has similarly been positioned along this trend. This article traces the lineage of </i><i>Filipino strongmen from Quezon to Marcos and Duterte and shows that they emerged </i><i>through juxtaposition of skilled diplomacy and local controls. This situates Duterte at </i><i>an intersection of global trends and local political tradition, beyond the flat application </i><i>of the term populism to the Philippines. Studying these Filipino strongmen reveals the </i><i>role of performative violence in projecting domestic strength and a complementary need </i><i>for diplomatic success to demonstrate international influence. These overlooked aspects </i><i>of global populism can be used to speculate about the political fate of populist strongmen </i><i>in disparate corners of the globe.</i></div>

<i>ABSTRACT. The demise of the Soviet Union, which was celebrated in the Anglosphere </i><i>as the triumph of US supremacy, gave rise to different paradigmatic interpretations of </i><i>the evolution of the world. The bulk of the evolving mainstream discourse was agenda-</i><i>driven and projected a continuation of the US hegemony of the global capitalist system. </i><i>Two theses stood out in the context of the post-Cold War. The first was the optimistic </i><i>assumption encapsulated in the notion of “the end of history,” which projected a world </i><i>having arrived at the last station based on the victory of liberal democracy and continued </i><i>US hegemony. The second was the counter-assumption of the thesis of The Clash of </i><i>Civilizations, which rejected the harmony interpretation of international relations and </i><i>considered the future contradictions and conflicts to be related to cultural, not to say </i><i>civilizational, antagonisms. The evolution of the world order in the past few decades </i><i>demands a theoretical shift explaining the transformation, which takes into consideration </i><i>the geostrategic and geopolitical ascendency of Eurasia and the Eastern Asia-Pacific </i><i>hemisphere as well as the relative decline of the hegemony of the Anglosphere. </i><i>Understanding the process at work makes it imperative to include the historical </i><i>perspective. In this context, the growth of China and India as powerhouses in the world </i><i>political economy cannot be exclusively defined as exemplars of catching up or late </i><i>development but by the notion of “return of history.” After a long period of self-centered </i><i>development, they are gradually reinserting themselves in the world system and </i><i>reemerging into their former dominant status prior to the eighteenth century and the </i><i>Western imperialist intrusion in the East. The aim of this paper is to explore and explain </i><i>the economic and political consequences this ongoing transformation will have for the </i><i>future of geopolitical and geo-economic domination of the West.</i></div>

Olivier Jacques, Danielle Labbé, and Clément Musil<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>ABSTRACT. This paper examines the recent emergence, on the periphery of Hanoi, </i><i>of large real estate projects that began construction during the 2000s but have now </i><i>remained unfinished or, even when completed, largely uninhabited. These “ghost urban </i><i>areas,” as the local press calls them, epitomize some of the problems which emerged in </i><i>Hanoi when a model of urban development that aimed at realizing an imagined urban </i><i>future, formulated by state planning agencies, encountered the highly speculative reality </i><i>of Vietnam’s property market. </i><i>Ghost urban areas reveal how the state’s planning </i><i>orientations and discourse—conveying ideals of urban “modernity,” “civility,” and </i><i>particularly “synchrony”—instead generated dysfunctional, incomplete, and </i><i>disconnected </i><i>places. </i><i>Based on a survey of thirty-nine ghost urban areas, a cartographic analysis, </i><i>interviews with key actors, and a critical study of policy documents, this paper reveals </i><i>multiple scales and forms of what we call “asynchronous territorial developments.” </i><i>Around Hanoi, these developments involve vast tracts of agricultural lands forcibly </i><i>appropriated yet left fallow, planned infrastructure and amenities that stay unbuilt for </i><i>indefinite periods of time, and housing units transacted multiple times among speculators </i><i>but have remained largely uninhabited and out of reach for a majority of urban </i><i>households. Ultimately, we interrogate how these various territorial asynchronies, both </i><i>generated by and plaguing ghost urban areas, shape their livability and inhabitants’ </i><i>experience.</i></div>

Joshua Eastin<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>ABSTRACT. This study examines the effects of natural disaster inundation on the </i><i>internal armed conflict waged by the Communist Party of the Philippines–New People’s </i><i>Army (CPP-NPA) against the Philippine state. Drawing on interviews and ethnographic </i><i>data and employing insights from the literature on civil conflict, social movements, and </i><i>environmental security, this study suggests that the Philippines’ vulnerability to disaster </i><i>has provided the CPP-NPA with tactical opportunities to increase attacks against the </i><i>Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), and has enabled the group to penetrate affected </i><i>communities to increase civilian collaboration and augment recruitment. In some cases, </i><i>the Philippine state’s institutional architecture for humanitarian relief, which relies </i><i>heavily on local government units, has abetted this process by enabling local politicians </i><i>to distribute relief supplies according to political patronage. The effect marginalizes </i><i>individuals and groups from the political process and enhances the receptivity of the </i><i>CPP-NPA’s anti-state propaganda. The overall impact has been to prolong the CPP-</i><i>NPA’s ability to maintain its revolutionary campaign and increase the group’s capacity </i><i>to wage violence.</i></div>

<b>About the Writeshop</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Third World Studies Center (TWSC) is launching the 2018 TWSC Writeshop in continuing its commitment to build the capacity of early career researchers, junior faculty members, and graduate students in the social sciences. As a premiere social science research center in the College of Social Sciences and Philosophy, University of the Philippines-Diliman, the TWSC continues to develop critical, alternative paradigms to promote progressive scholarship by undertaking pioneering research and publishing original, empirically-grounded, and innovative studies.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Originally meant as a capacity-building workshop on social science research in 2010, the TWSC Writeshop transformed into a unique publication platform for early career researchers, junior faculty members, and graduate students in the social sciences. Since 2014, successful participants, called Writeshop fellows, were not only given the opportunity to interact with senior scholars, but also the opportunity to produce a publishable manuscript for TWSC’s internationally refereed journal <i>Kasarinlan: Philippine Journal of Third World Studies.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 2018 TWSC Writeshop sustains the manuscript-driven mentoring format in the form of intensive yet collegial small-group discussions with mentors, established scholars in their respective fields and the Kasarinlan editorial staff. The intensive three-day session will bring in line problematization, researcher positionality and ethics, and crafting meaningful narratives based on empirical work to equip the Writeshop fellows in making their own contribution to social science scholarship, i.e., a publishable work. In seeing through the TWSC Writeshop’s goal, the Writeshop culminates in the publication of successful manuscripts in a special issue in <i>Kasarinlan</i>. Fellows whose manuscript will be accepted for publication within one year or until October 2019 will receive a cash incentive of P20,000.00.</div>
