Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A gripping account of how authoritarian leadership and a global pandemic devastated one nation's economy-told by an economist who lived through the crisisWhat happens when a deadly virus meets a deadly strongman?Twin Plagues tells the story of the Philippines under Rodrigo Duterte and Covid-19-two forces that ravaged the country in tandem. Economist and columnist JC Punongbayan likens Duterte himself to a virus that hijacked the state and eroded its democracy's immune system. His rule hollowed out institutions, deepened inequality, and killed thousands even before the pandemic hit.So when Covid-19 arrived, the impact was predictably catastrophic: the Philippines endured one of the world's longest lockdowns, its worst recession since the 1980s, and ASEAN's sharpest pandemic slump-pushing the economy on a permanently lower path.Blending data with personal insight, Twin Plagues exposes the real and lasting costs of Duterte's misgovernance from 2016 to 2022, while dismantling the myths and misconceptions that sanitize his legacy and paint him as the 'best president ever'. Above all, the book offers a stern warning: Despots don't just kill-they derail nations, set them back decades, and condemn future generations to live with the wreckage.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book is going to be perhaps the most lethal weapon in the arsenal against the so-far partially successful attempts (thanks to social media) to tout the 20-year Marcos era (January 1966 to February 1986) as a 'golden age' in Philippine history. Specifically, JC Punongbayan relentlessly examines every one of 43 claims that have been made regarding that period-from the faintly ridiculous (that Imelda Marcos did not use public funds to build her 'bopis' hospitals) to the utterly insane (that nobody was poor during the Marcos regime). And he debunks every one of them with a mountain of data and past studies, all footnoted, referenced, and acknowledged so anyone can check and see for themselves the accuracy of JC's rebuttals. The joy of it is that he combines seven years of scholarly research with simple, clear, compelling writing. Bravo! -Solita C.
