Edited by Julio C. Teehankee
More Political Than We Admit is a compelling anthology that challenges the public’s perception of Philippine politics. Anchored in the Filipino terms pulitika, pamumulitika, and pinulitika, this collection of essays underscores the inescapable reality of how politics is deeply interwoven into the everyday lives of the Filipinos.
The book’s title alludes to its central argument, which is that Filipinos are “more political than we admit,” playing dual roles — as both objects and subjects— in political processes. This anthology aims to provide novel insights into the paradoxes and intricacies that characterize Philippine politics.

More Political Than We Admit, edited by Prof. Julio C. Teehankee, offers an analytical and empirical road map to help us understand the origins of our political system and its many contradictions. Divided into four chapters, this anthology of seventeen essays also provides information and insights on what is happening in Philippine politics today.

The latest studies by Filipino political scientists presented in this book show a dynamic and pluralist perspective on politics. More Political Than We Admit is a book that everyone-from pundits to academics, highbrows, and organic intellectuals, to the general public— should read and keep within reach.
