There is the problem of looking at his popularity from an inter-country comparison when it is better to understand as a strand of post-war Filipino populism. The lecture also explores the dual nature of Davao City and then Davao province as settlement zones where migrants were supposed to move into &#8220;empty spaces,&#8221; on the one hand, but also an important cog in a global trading network on the other. It then moves to explore the distinctive Davao political economy of Davao (which relies on agricultural exports) and how it configures the local political culture, including the way Duterte&#8217;s constituents recollection of historical events like the 1986 People Power Revolution. Finally, it probes how languages and dialects are used by Duterte to reach out to his &#8220;voter base.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the speaker<\/strong>:<br \/>\nPatricio N.
