Power and Privilege: Essays on Politics, Economics, and Government

In this book of essays, veteran Filipino journalist Rene Azurin tries to bring to bear elements of history, political and economic theory and philosophy on public issues in an effort to extend the perspective of the reader beyond the narrow confines of his own particular interest group and into the economy at large and society in general, so that more Filipino citizens will have a better understanding of what public policies will best serve the general welfare.
