Episode 26:
The Role of Civil Society in Philippine Democracy
National Institute for Policy Studies President Mario
Taguiwalo explains
the economic and social background that gives birth
to Philippine civil society. He expounds on its rise
during the Marcos dictatorship and its continued flourishing
in restored democracy. He speaks of civil society
as the central channel of engaging politicians due
to the lack of ideologically based political parties
in the country.
