Description
Summary:This article explores the meaning of the Philippines' “people power” revolution from a missiological perspective, examining it from within the indigenous culture and as an example of what it means to engage a society collaboratively. It is a narrative about being part of a wide coalition of co-belligerents against an authoritarian regime and lessons learned in the process. It sets forth the need to understand such political events from within the analytical categories of the indigenous culture, and to see it as possibly one of those rare historical moments when the kingdom manifests itself.
