Offers an in-depth examination of the political participation and discourse of the urban poor in Manila. After the ousting of Ferdinando Marcos in 1986, society in the Philippines fractured along socioeconomic lines. The middle class began to recognize themselves as moral citizens while condemning the poor as immoral "masses". Conversely, the poor saw themselves as morally upright and the rich as arrogant oppressors.
