| Summary, etc. |
The book narrates the personal engagement of the author with Sapang Palay, learning in the process the wider historical context in which it was transformed from a hacienda into a resettlement of urban "informal settlers." The forced evacuation of urban dwellers into the rural frontier of San Jose del Monte created social contradictions among the various classes, ethnic groups and political groupings that would be resolved only with the help of "integrators" and "movers." In the early phase of resettlement, philanthropists and government personnel were at the forefront. As the settlers got adapted to their new environment, they gradually developed community consciousness. At that point, student activist and ideologues entered the picture, and took over in leading the people to make demands on the government through organizing and mass actions. Developing social and civic consciousness has remained central to the story of Sapang Palay. The political forces saw the transformation of their community into a city as the solution to these problems of conflicts, divisions, and contradictions. THE AUTHOR Jaime Balcos Veneraction, writer, professor, and historian, finished his doctorate in Philippine Studies (History, Anthropology and Political Science) at the University of the Philippines in 1983.
