A Special Relationship: The United States and the Philippine Military with Mesrob Vartavarian
Dr Eric Jones speaks with Mesrob Vartavarian on the US relationship with the Philippines.
Since the turn of the twentieth century, the United States has shaped and interacted with coercive institutions in the Philippines in pursuit of its own strategic interests. Philippine military professionalism, praetorianism, and de facto autonomy were all encouraged by the United States to either facilitate or place limits upon political change. This lecture emphasizes the influence of underlying structures over discreet events.
