Summary, etc. |
In this third of the 19 books contemplated by the author to constitute "Tadhana: The History of the Filipino People," Ferdinand E. Marcos examines a period crucial to the formation of the Filipino nation. This period of "Transition," covering the years from 1765 to 1815, served as the fulcrum in the development of a national vision, the middle point from an epoch of fragmented struggle against an alien power to the final attainment of a national will. As the author points out in his Preface, the present period spans a mere 57 years, in contrast to the earlier periods of "Encounter" and "Reaction," which covered, respectively, 98 and 102 years, or approximately a full century each. The significance of this is that there is now an acceleration of historical movement, a quickening of spirit, as the Filipinos respond to colonial and other stimuli with a developing social and political consciousness. Largely this is a response to the reforms in the economy and in government instituted by the Bourbon King Charles III ("the best of the Bourbons"). Although they were designed primarily to restore the state to its position of dominate in Spain and in the colonies in relation to the now too powerful Church, these reforms also had the effect of laying the basis for change. Economic reforms, among them the inauguration of new trade routes and the cultivation of a variety of export crops, hastened the end of the galleon trade which had been, in the modern expression, a "disincentive" to development. The structure of the principalia was altered, and the process of acculturation intensified. Together with the reforms in the bureaucracy, the economic reforms also brought a period of relative calm. At the same time, however, the monopolies which were part of these reforms provoked discontent in some areas, notably the Ilocos, and gave a new dimension to the few revolts to the period. A oeriod of quiet upheaval, "Transition" introduces the reader to the metamorphosis and final ferment that occur in the succeeding years until 1896. |
