The Philippine-American War has rarely been analyzed from the Filipino viewpoint. As a consequence, Filipino military activity is little known or misunderstood. This study aims to shed light on the Filipino side of the conflict. It does so by utilizing the Philippine Insurgent Records, which are the records of the Philippine government. More importantly, the thesis examines 300 years of Filipino history, starting with the Spanish conquest, in order to provide a framework for understanding Philippine military culture.

In the past two decades, ethnoarchaeological methods have grown in importance because of their unique ability to shed direct light on relationships between material culture patterns and social behavior. Ethnoarchaeological research in extant societies allows archaeologists to observe specific examples of how material culture reflects social behavior. The present study demonstrates the value of economic data to ethnoarchaeological analyses. Data collected in 1987-1988 in the Kalinga village of Dangtalan are analyzed from an economic perspective at the household level. Relative household wealth totals are computed for a sample of 56 Dangtalan households. Correlations are explored between wealth and several pottery variables, and between wealth and architectural variables. Results indicate that pottery and architecture in Dangtalan possess certain patterns which correlate in varying degrees with household wealth. Possible implications for archaeology, and potential problems of application are explored.

This thesis measures and evaluates the impact of the integration of Philippine labour into the international labour market, by studying three prototype structures of this integration, namely: the export processing zone, migration of contract workers and subcontracting of domestic outwork. The evaluation is on two levels: first, whether the integration since the early 70s has significantly improved the levels of employment, wages and skills, and second, whether there are prospects of further growth in these variables. This study also evaluates the impact on the trade union movement and on employment of women. Theoretically, for a labour-surplus economy, linkage with the international factor market should increase the levels of the above variables. However, there is evidence that this is not necessarily so and that such linkage may prove costly in the long run. In addition to aggregate data obtained from various agencies, three community-level surveys were undertaken for this study. Each of the three structures studied shows varying degrees of significance of effects on the levels of employment, wages and skills, and on trade unions and employment of women. On an Overall level however, there is a pattern. Employment generation, if measured in terms of the regional, sectoral and industrial objectives of the structures, has been significant. But on the aggregate level, this is still far short of effecting full employment. Consequently, real wage levels in general have remained on a downward trend, although for the individual workers the gains are substantial, especially for the migrant workers. Viewed as a process, the linkage means a series of access for capital to cheaper sources of labour, particularly of women and domestic outworkers. The level of skills acquisition has not been significant and no loss of skills is indicated. Prospects for further growth in employment, wages and skills appear limited with the possible decline in demand for Philippine labour in the face of developments in the world market and the competition from other labour-surplus Asian economies. Finally, there has been a weakening of the trade union movement in general and a progressive recourse by management to employment of women as alternative source of cheap labour. Although the findings show a mixture of benefits and costs arising from the integration into the international market, it is recommended that an evaluation of this strategy be made in the light of changing world market and ASEAN regional conditions.

Gender, ethnicity, landscape, nation — none exist as real places or categories but as the effect of various practices that bring bodies and spaces into being. This dissertation attempts to rethink concepts of gender and ethnicity away from traditional ideas of places and cultures. To do so, it embeds them within social practice as performatives emerging from the colonial encounter. The text reports on ethnographic field research among Igorot communities originating on the Philippine Cordillera Central. By applying Burawoy's extended case method to local narratives of identity, history and migration, the argument extends theorizations of locality and gendered subaltern agency. The analysis locates the imaginative work that produces local places, subject positions and subjectivities within a palimpsest of transnational discourses, outmigration and local innovations. Locality and subjectivity are shown to be embedded in and produced by both local experiences and global identifications of difference originating within colonial histories. In narrating and dis-placing colonial stories of places and people, the power of these discourses on gender and ethnicity to constitute subjects with coherent names is challenged. By tracing the-persistence of the colonial past in the apparently de-colonized present, this text suggests that the concepts of performance and naming can help to make greater theoretical and empirical sense of the (post)colonial world.
