Description

Movements tell stories of oppression and liberation.

They critique the power relations that exist. They offer alternative visions of the homeland they hope to build.

This volume looks at the Moro and Cordillera movements as told in their own words.

Within and among these movement organizations in the Philippines, their constructed identities and claims for demanding the right to self-determination differed and evolved over time.

The author shows the significant intertextuality in the discourse of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, which broke away from the Moro National Liberation Front.

She traces the drift to heightened ethnonationalism in the case of the Cordillera Peoples' Liberation Army when it split from the national democratic Cordillera People's Democratic Front.

She reflects on where these mobilizations are now, and the strands of discourses that have remained salient in current times.
