N2  - This book of selected writings lays out the evolution of Fr. Carroll's thinking on Philippine social structure and societal change over forty years of active research, writing, and sharing poor people's lives. Applying sociological theory to the analysis of everyday social and political events, Carroll challenges the Catholic Church, elites, civil society, and grassroots groups to attack and rectify the appalling imbalance of power and benefits in Philippine society. Fighting this battle - his War Zone - and winning it will help transform Philippine society from one whose elites control a political economy sustained by power and guns into one that upholds and defends equality, access, and participation for all. --Amazon.com
