Summary/Abstract |
The new president of the Philippines, Benigno Aquino III, has to deal with the legacy of his predecessor, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. Her 10-year rule had the contradictory effect of stabilizing the economy but also bringing out the worst of a political process driven by patronage and anchored on the power and violence of political dynasties and warlords.
