Community Organizing in the Philippines: A Guide for Today's Organizers. A resource for community leaders, youth volunteers, NGO workers, and anyone building people power at the grassroots level. When the state shrinks civic space, the people redraw the frontlines. Community Organizing in the Era of the Marcoses and Dutertes offers a definitive, multi-generational examination of grassroots resistance in the Philippines. Moving from the clandestine anti-Martial Law networks under Ferdinand Marcos Sr. to the weaponized digital landscapes, systematic redtagging, and penal populism of the Duterte era, this volume serves as an essential roadmap for modern collective action. Edited by Marlon Fulo, this collection masterfully bridges sharp academic critique with practical, battlefield-tested methodologies. It provides a rare look at the tactical adaptations of modern social movements—from navigating project development and community-driven initiatives to launching regional capability training seminars and horizontal youth networks like the Youth Kumustahan series. Unflinching, deeply insightful, and ultimately hopeful, this book is an indispensable resource for activists, development workers, scholars, and anyone fighting to protect civil liberties in an age of shifting political tides.
