"This contextualizing of the imagination reveals two dimensions in the writer's discursive strategy: the ideological function of reconciling contradictions, and the utopian drive to subvert imperialist subjection via the invention of an egalitarian, resurgent Filipino community--the fulfillment of the dream of the 1896 Revolution. Joaquin's corpus is therefore as conflicted, as torn by the same contradictions as the body politic which his art seeks to mediate."--P. [4] of cover.

With the emergence of revolutionary nationalism in the Philippines in the last two decades, the fate of liberal elite democracy introduced by the United States, its former colonial master, hangs in the balance. This extraordinary achievement in comparative cultural studies maps the genealogy of this crisis. It addresses the ethics and politics of ideas and languages migrating to and from metropolis to periphery. Mediated through a historical critique of United States-Philippines literary transactions, this groundbreaking work endeavors to articulate a Third World perspective on the impact of Eurocentric power on a unique indigenous tradition of resistance. It offers a critique of hegemonic ideology and its symbolic exchanges with the praxis of oppositional texts. What results is the emancipatory project of Philippine writing - a popular-democratic vision of national liberation.

This is the first book to address moral reasoning and socioscientific discourse. It provides a theoretical framework to reconsider what a "functional view" of scientific literacy entails, by examining how nature of science issues, classroom discourse issues, cultural issues, and science-technology-society-environment case-based issues contribute to habits of mind about socioscientific content. The text covers philosophical, psychological and pedagogical considerations underpinning moral reasoning, as well as the status of socioscientific issues in science education.

Using the social psychological theory of 'constructive controversy', this book analyses the nature of disagreement among members of decision-making groups. It addresses questions such as: do differences of opinion enhance or obstruct creative thinking? And why do people make decisions based only on their own perspective without considering alternative viewpoints?
