David Wurfel offers here the most comprehensive account of politics in the Philippines from 1945 to the present available in any language, and deepens our understanding of the development of Filipino democracy. Filipino Politics provides both a detailed history of the cycles of strengthening and decay which characterize Filipino political history and an up-to-date analysis of conditions that threaten to undermine the institutions of popular government.
