A people's revolution of our time : Philippines, February 22-25, 1986 / Alexander P. Aguirre. - xx, 116 pages : illustrations 22 cm.

An inside story with politico-military analysis.

A I write this book, I am reminded of my academic discussion with Victor Corpus on the merits of achieving a change of government through constitutional process, revolution or coup d'etat. That was in 1970. The nation was then already in ferment and the people, especially the youth, were restive. Bannered in the daily newspapers were reports about mass rallies and demonstrations most often resulting to violent confrontations between the demonstrators and the authorities. And these events naturally became the subject of our discussion and analysis in our political science class.
