Research Interests

My first year as associate professor in the Center was an extremely fruitful one. I revised my dissertation, and it was published by Ateneo de Manila University Press under the title Making Mindanao: Cotabato and Davao in the Formation of the Philippine Nation-State. I continued working on the American colonial period, particularly on the construction of politics in that era. My research included the origins of the communist opposition to the Marcos dictatorship, especially in the southern Philippines. I became Southeast Asia editor (previously member of the editorial board) of Critical Asian Studies, previously Bulletin of Concerned Asian Scholars. My book Love, Sex and the Filipino Communist, or Hinggil sa Pagpigil ng Panggigigil was published in 2004 by Anvil Publishing in Manila. In late 2004, the book State and Society in the Philippines which Donna J. Amoroso and I co-authored was published in May 2005 by Rowman and Littlefield in Maryland, U.S.A.
