摘要:Promising to situate the Philippines in global and regional contexts, the authors aim to 'reconsider the narrative of Philippine political development', to attempt a 'sustained analysis of state formation over the course of a millen-nium' and to develop a 'framework for understanding Philippine state-society relations over time' (page xv). Whereas the standard narrative follows conven-tional historical periodisation – '"pre-Hispa nic"; Spani sh; r evolut ionary ; American; Commonwealth; Japanese; and, in the Republican era, by presi-dential administration' – the authors have written a book that 'acknowledges the Southeast Asian connections of the Philippines and the changing rhythm of state and social formation across times and regimes' (page 4).
