San Juan, a noted Philippine Marxist now living in the United
States, gives a detailed account of the Philippine situation from
many perspectives. The essays deal with new-imperialism, the Muslim
community, literature, the New People's Army, women, and Filipinos
in the United States. While Marcos is gone, many of the issues San
Juan raises still need attention and the Marxist perspective he
uses gives a very different insight than has been heard previously.
Thus the work merits serious consideration for academic libraries.
Library Journal Crisis in the Philippines is an unparalleled view
of the making of a revolution. E. San Juan offers an insider's
examination of the unrelenting avalanche of political events,
culminated by the summary killing of opposition leader Benigno
Aquino. He dramarically illuminates the Filipino people's struggle
for self-determination, the actual activities and growth of the New
People's Army, and an analysis of the global forces influencing the
current crisis. Unprecedented focus is given to the ways in which
certain groups within Phillippine society--particularly the
feminist movement and the Church--are coalescing with the Left.
Poignantly illustrated with photographs of village life, the New
People's Army, protest rallies, press and media clippings, this is
the first unrestricted story of the Philippine revolution.
