This article examines the delicate ideological maneuverings that shaped American colonial constructions of savagery, civility, and gender in the wake of the Bud Dajo massacre in the Philippines's Muslim south in 1906. It looks particularly at shifting notions of femininity and masculinity as these related to episodes of violence and colonial control. The article concludes that, while the Bud Dajo massacre was a terrible black mark on the American military's record in Mindanao and Sulu, colonial officials ultimately used the event to positively affirm existing discourses of power and justification, which helped to sustain and guide military rule in the Muslim south for another seven years.

In contrast to functionalist explanations for the spread of Pentecostal and charismatic Christianity, this article discursively analyzes conversion narratives to understand the localization of a global cultural phenomenon. The narratives were drawn from interviews, conducted in 2005, with members of the El Shaddai and Jesus-is-Lord movements. Approached from the perspective of critical realism, the narratives embody a diversity of plots, creative tensions, and distinctively Filipino elements that speak of a reconstituted self and a new engagement with society. They reveal the informants grappling with the question of God’s existence, which finds resolution in individualized experiences of transcendence that generate and infuse local meanings to Pentecostal and charismatic Christianity.

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in the Philippines , this article argues that El Shaddai, a popular Filipino Catholic charismatic movement, offers a unique and relevant religious option by straddling a " modern " and Pentecostal-like approach to spirituality, ritual, and Christian life, on the one hand, and a Catholic social identity and communal life, on the other. Although El Shaddai members, unlike Pentecostals, maintain many of the traditional social attachments of Filipino Catholicism, El Shaddai's prosperity theology and mass mediated ritual forms contribute to divergent understandings of spiritual power and poverty, as well as a sense of demarginalization and self-determination.

This article explores the nature of historical forgetting in the Philippines through the lens of Pierre Bourdieu's notion of forgetting as misrecognition, which is invested with power and struggle. The notion is concretized in the context of Reynaldo Ileto's discussion of the Schurman Commission, which was tasked to gather information about the Philippines as part of the United States' pacification campaign. Because historical forgetting is rooted in the structure of society itself, policies concerning language and education are imbued with power and class dimensions. The necessity of change in consciousness is enmeshed in the broader politics of social change, which is thus the context of the debate on the critical role of English in the Philippines. The political imperative to forget is inherent in - and partly sustains - the fundamental structure of social relations in the Philippines.

This article discusses conversion to Evangelical Protestantism among the Higaunon and related Lumad groups, particularly the cultural and social reasons behind the surprising success of foreign Evangelical missionaries among the Higaunon, and its observable impacts. Special attention is given to the dominant themes of revitalization movements and the Ulaging epic that are shared by Lumad belonging to the Manobo language family. These dominant themes are strongly linked to those emphasized in Evangelicalism.

The article discusses the findings of an empirical study on religious change in the Philippines conducted in 2003. The findings challenge the common assumptions about the middle class character of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal movement and the predominantly poor and uneducated followers of non-Catholic charismatic mass organizations. Three types of religiosity are identified: sociocultural, orthodox, and charismatic. The findings indicate that the phenomenon of charismatic Christianity in the Philippines cannot be reduced to socioeconomic or political factors; rather, charismatic religiosity is a genuinely religious phenomenon that cuts across social classes. This religious phenomenon is interpreted as a way of coping with the challenges of modernization processes.
