Description:
Reflections on Revolution and Prospects presents a factual view of the current background, the currents and prospects of the epochal struggle between capitalism and socialism on the scale of the world and the Philippines since 1988. Written in interview format, it is a followup on The Philippine Revolution: The Leader's View (1989).
From the Foreword written by E. San Juan, Jr.:
"One of the most instructive sections of these interviews is Sison’s insightful critique of the neocolonial administrations since the fall of Marcos up to the current fascist Duterte regime. His discussion of the impact of global changes on the Philippine system, in particular the capitalist restoration in the former Soviet Union and in China, as well as the decline of U.S. global hegemony, gives us the framework for speculations on the prospects of the Philippine revolution amidst a worldwide socialist resurgence,”
