In this first ground-level account of the Muslim separatist
rebellion in the Philippines, Thomas McKenna challenges prevailing
anthropological analyses of nationalism as well as their underlying
assumptions about the interplay of culture and power. He examines
Muslim separatism against a background of more than four hundred
years of political relations among indigenous Muslim rulers, their
subjects, and external powers seeking the subjugation of Philippine
Muslims. He also explores the motivations of the ordinary men and
women who fight in armed separatist struggles and investigates the
formation of nationalist identities. A skillful meld of historical
detail and ethnographic research, Muslim Rulers and Rebels makes a
compelling contribution to the study of protest, rebellion, and
revolution worldwide.
