Palawan at the Crossroads dwells on how dramatic twentieth-century population growth, particularly after the Second World War, has transformed the ecological and cultural landscape of Palawan island, widely known as the Philippines' last frontier.
Through an integrated set of case studies by American, European, and Filipino academic specialists, this book examines the human dimensions of this historic transformation of Palawan. It focuses on the geographical and historical influences that have shaped contemporary Palawan society and the diverse experiences with developmental change of its immigrant and indigenous peoples. These experiences are placed in the context of recent trends and future needs in basic and applied research.
