Reseña del libro "Spectator Society: The Philippines Under Martial Rule"

As the first post-war president of the Philippines to win reelection, Ferdinand Marcos enjoyed grassroots popularity and was also highly esteemed by the officer corps and rand-and-file of the armed forces. Even more important, he was decisive, ruthless, and without equal as a political tactician. This study traces chronologically and topically the events which led to Marcos' declaration of martial law in 1972 and calls for a return to participatory democracy.
