  • Conflict and cooperation in environmental administration

    Open AccessA B VillanuevaARTICLEThe Social Science Journal1996References: 4

    Cleavages exist between agencies on the implementation of environmental policies and the management of environmental programs. Although these cleavages are not deep enough to cause an agency immobilisme, they slow down the pace of pollution control. Within the agencies, much time is wasted when environmental specialists quibble on regulatory matters, when relationships between environmental scientists and resource managers are strained, and when …

    A B VillanuevaARTICLEContemporary Southeast Asia1992Cited by: 1

    The hope of a better life for Filipinos in a restored democracy in the Philippines in the post-Marcos era proved unfulfilled during the regime of Corazon Aquino. Aquino's indecisiveness, inexperi ence, and ineptness as a political leader were no match for the challenges of democratic governance. She was a disappointment to those who supported her simply because she failed to measure up to their expectations

  • Elite Choices and Constitutional Guarantees of Local Autonomy in the Third World

    Open AccessA B VillanuevaARTICLEModern Asian Studies1980References: 2

    The second generation of constitutional elites who adopted the fundamental law of the Philippine Republic had hoped that through legislative discretion local governments would develop into strong and effective agents of the national government. This hope was dashed by the unwillingness of the legislative branch to make the local units less dependent on the central government and the meticulous way in which the President of the nation tried to con…

  • Decentralization and Executive-Legislative Relations in the Philippines, 1961-1967

    Open AccessA B VillanuevaARTICLEModern Asian Studies1978Cited by: 2References: 4

    Although the framers of the Philippine constitutional convention of 1934-35 were careful not to establish an imperium in imperio (kingdom within a kingdom), the local government system which developed was not under absolute national control either. For in spite of the efforts made by several delegates to include in the national fundamental law a provision that would have guaranteed 'a more autonomous framework of government for the provinces and …

  • Congressional Legitimation of Municipal Reform in the Philippines, 1954-1960

    Open AccessA B VillanuevaARTICLEModern Asian Studies1976References: 1

    Filipino political leaders have been addressing themselves to the issue of municipal reform since the dawn of the twentieth century, but discussion of the issue never reached a high intensity until the then Institute of Public Administration of the University of the Philippines (established in 1954 under the aegis of American technical assistance) defined the issues more clearly. The thrust of this renewed enthusiasm in local government reform in…

  • Nuclear power, private attorneys general, and the regulatory process

    Open AccessA B VillanuevaARTICLECanadian Public Administration1975

    The appearance of citizen intervenors or private attorneys general in nuclear hearings or proceedings in the United States has raised a number of issues about the regulatory process. One of these issues deals with the legitimacy of private attorneys general as spokesmen of the public interest. Another is the appropriate response a regulatory agency should extend to these groups, considering their lack of knowledge, familiarity, and expertise in a…

  • The Philippine Congress and the Barrio Electoral Process

    Open AccessA B VillanuevaARTICLEJournal of Southeast Asian Studies1971References: 1

    Filipino barrios are mostly rural villages. They are, in legal parlance, the smallest political subdivisions in the Philippine system of local governments. Before the fifties barrio government was virtually non-existent. Although there were barrio lieutenants appointed by municipal mayors, it was not until the mid-fifties that councils began to give the barrios a semblance of government — mostly in form rather than in substance —similar to the co…
