by Renato Constantino, Letizia R. Constantino

The Philippines: The Continuing Past by Renato Constantino and Letizia R. Constantino is a sequel to The Philippines: A Past Revisited. It critically examines the country’s history from the American colonial period to the post-independence era, exposing how foreign influence and elite domination have shaped the nation’s political and economic landscape. The book challenges mainstream historical narratives, highlighting the persistence of neocolonial structures, economic dependency, and social inequalities. By analyzing key events such as U.S. occupation, World War II, and postwar governance, the authors emphasize the need for a nationalist perspective in understanding the country’s ongoing struggles and unfinished revolution.
