To offer an understanding of the dynamics of Philippine fantasy-production, the author looks "at a broad range of phenomena characterizing the contemporary national formation of the Philippines, including the prostitution economy, the mass migration overseas of domestic workers, urban restructuring, and the popular revolt deposing the Marcos dictatorship, as well as representational works of art, poetry, historical narrative, and film, which try to intervene in these historical conditions."

Neferti Xina M. Tadiar is associate professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
