This book retells the story and ongoing struggles of the Mag-indi Ayta in Pampanga on the issues of human and communal sustainability. Dr. Emil Ibera intends to give voice to the often suppressed, sidelined and silenced voices of this indigenous population in the field of development studies. The mainstream forces of the country and the international community have imposed their frameworks on the margins. Their discourses—be it in business, politics, religion or academe—drown the voices of peoples who have resisted colonial oppression in the past, local abusive politics at present, and recently, the inroads of the late capitalist global economy.
