| Summary/Abstract |
In May of 2022, Bongbong Marcos won a commanding 59 percent of the vote to become president of the Philippines. His victory was, on some level, shocking to scholars and analysts of Philippine politics. As a result, a plethora of different theories have been proposed, in an attempt to explain why Marcos won. In this paper, we use nationally representative survey data to explore which factors predict (and do not predict) voting intention for Marcos. We find that, a) support for former President Rodrigo Duterte, b) positive perceptions of the late President Ferdinand Marcos and martial law, and c) ethnic (linguistic) identity are strong predictors of voting for Bongbong Marcos. On the other hand, age, education, and income are not. Consequently, theories based on continuity, coalition, history, and identity provide the most leverage on the question of why Bongbong Marcos won the election.

| Summary/Abstract |
Prison walls cannot prevent Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte’s fiercest foe from speaking out. From her cell, Sen. Leila de Lima calls the 71-year-old ruler a “geriatric dictator wannabe” involved in “mass serialized murder” and says history will vindicate her.

| Summary/Abstract |
President Duterte has launched a wide-ranging campaign of extra judicial killings in violation of constitutional norms and legal procedures. Disregarding ASEAN practices, he has also initiated a strategic shift away from the US towards China and Russia. Vinod Saighal points out that the advent of the Trump administration may halt the far reaching moves, although the evolution of the Philippines’ policies is unpredictable.
