| Publisher Description: 'Filipinas dentro de cien a os' vaticina el rechazo de los filipinos a la posibilidad de caer bajo soberan a americana, aun desde los ltimos a os del dominio espa ol, y reivindica los buenos resultados que podr an esperarse si la vida pol tica y social se liberalizara, para construir una sociedad sostenible e independiente. Adem s, proclama la capacidad de la poblaci n filipina de persistir en tal proyecto: La ilustraci n se extiende, y la persecuci n que sufre la aviva. No; la llama divina del pensamiento es inextinguible en el pueblo filipino, y de un modo o de otro ha de brillar y darse a conocer. No es posible embrutecer a los habitantes de Filipinas 'The Philippines in 100 Years' Time' calls for rejection of the islands' falling under the sway of a new imperial power, even as the struggle for independence from Spain is escalating. It seeks to illustrate some of the positive results that would emerge from liberalizing Filipino social and political life, in order to build a more sustainable and free society. The book also proclaims the strength of the Filipino people for such an enterprise: "Enlightenment spreads, and the persecution suffered enlivens it. No; the divine flame of thought is inextinguishable in the Filipino people, and one way or another, it must shine and become known. It is impossible to turn the inhabitants of the Philippines into mere brutes." |
