Project sea hawk : the barbed wire journal / Dolores Stephens Feria. - 316 pages : illustrations 20 cm.

This volume is for approximately 60,000 military hostages who said a firm "No!" to the Marcos dictatorship, who were subsequently herded by the military regime into detention centers set up before 1972, who were considered violators of public order, and, therefore, not political prisoners subject to international law at the height of Project Sea Hawk. It does not include those 248 disappearances documented by Amnesty International in 1979. It does not include a small number who still languish in Fort Bonifacio and a few who achieved refugee status in Europe. And this book is also for all others who have become refugees in their own country, from South Africa to Argentina to China, who have become part of an international culture of barbed wire in our time and in languages that require no translator.
