QUOTES

• "As we no longer have death penalty (judicial killings), all killings in the country, strictly speaking, are extrajudicial."-Geronimo Sy, Manila Times colunist
• "Larger-size families still constitute the majority of the poor. Poverty incidence increases as family size increases. A strong word of caution: all the foregoing shows correlation, but not causation. There is no way of telling whether it is having larger families that is the cause of their poverty (not enough to go around), or it is poverty that causes the larger family sizes (the search for social security). Probably a combination of both. Buth the association between the two is too strong to be denied.-Solita Monsod, BusinessWorld

Quotes from Human Development Report 2006

Beyond Scarcity: Power, Poverty and the Global Water Crisis

• "Not having access" to water and sanitation is a polite euphemism for a form of deprivation that threatens life, destroy opportunity and undermines human dignity.
• Ensuring that every person has access to at least 20 liters of clean water each day is a minimum requirement for respecting the human right to water.
• The scarcity at the heart of the global water crisis is rooted in power, poverty and inequality, not in physical availability.
• Water and sanitation are among the most preventive medicines available to governments to reduce infectious disease.
• Land and water are two key assets on which poor people depend for their livelihoods.
• Across much of the developing world, unclean water is an immeasurably greater threat to human security than violent conflict.
• While one part of the world sustains designer bottled-water market that generates no tangible health benefits, another part suffers acute public health risks because people have to drink water from drains or from lakes and rivers.
• Unclean water and poor sanitation have claimed more lives over the past century than any other cause.
• Poor people get less access to clean water and pay more for it.
• Water scarcity can be physical, economic or institutional, and-like water itself-it can fluctuate over time and space.
• Water policy reform should be seen as an integral part of national poverty reduction strategies.

TODARO (1997) OUTLINE

2 Kinds of World Agriculture

1. the highly efficient agriculture of the developed countries, where substantial productive capacity & high output/worker permit a very small number of farmers to feed the entire nations
2. the inefficient & low productivity agriculture of developing countries, where in many instances the agricultural sector can barely sustain the farm population, let alone the urban burgeoning population, even at a minimum level of subsistence

4 Dimensions of Employment Problem in the Developing Region

1. The Educated Unemployed (unemployment rates rise w/ higher levels of schooling) His explanation: least educated can't afford to be unemployed & must seek any kind of work in the informal sector. Even though they may be grossly unemployed-working, say, only 1 day a week-these people are not counted as unemployed. College graduates, on the other hand, can afford to search for higher-paying jobs & are thus more likely to be counted among the unemployed.
2. Self-employment in the Informal Economy (off-shoot of the inability of the people to find salaried employment; the objective is day-to-day survival)
3. Women & Unemployment (Most women are employed in a very limited range of low-productivity jobs where hours of work were long & pay was low)
4. Youth Unemployment (concentrated in urban area due to in-migration & burgeoning labor force of young new entrants) and Child Labor (children under age of 14 work long hours of pitiful low wages under subhuman working conditions)

The 3 Core Values of Development (Michael Todaro, 1997)

1. Sustenance: The Ability to Meet Basic Needs
2. Self-esteem: To Be a Person
3. Freedom from Servitude: To Be Able to Choose

The 3 Objectives of Development (Michael Todaro, 1997)

1. Increase the availability and widen the distribution of basic life-sustaining goods (food, shelter, health, and protection)
2. Raise levels of living (higher income, more jobs, better education, and greater attention to cultural and humanistic values) = will enhance material well-being; generate greater individual and national self-esteem
3. Expand the range of economic and social choices (by freeing them from servitude, dependence, ignorance and human misery)

GMA's Cabinet Meeting (a forwarded text from a student)

(Initsa ang bola, tumalbog pabalik sa kanya.)
GMA: O, practice lang yun noh! Ulet!!!!!!!!!!!!

Random Thoughts

• It's horsetrading once again in Congress.
• In his play of words, Peter Wallace once said that the opposite of PROgress is CONgress.
• When I personally asked Mrs. Imelda Marcos in a forum about what she thinks is the most distorted part of the Philippine contemporary history, she answered that it is our culture. She said that Filipinos are misunderstood by outsiders. For a very obvious reason, she did not really answered my question. She's witty! (read: cunning)
• Meldy, as she always claim, is allergic to ugliness. That, according to her, explains her penchant for extravaganza, spectacles, and mega-structures.
• The 2010 prexy polls will still be an extension of the GMA-Erap storyline.
• Expect more major and minor disasters (both natural and human-induced, or combination thereof) to occur in the coming months. In fact, we have a major one in our midst (GMA= "tsunano"=tsunami+unano). My apologies for the heightism.
• Everyday, we are having an election in the country. People are "voting with their feet." They are leaving the country for good.
• The country is not only in search of an alternative to GMA, but her complete opposite. It's still an unfinished revolution since 1896.

SOCIOLOGY OF CARE WORK

EMERGING THEORIES OF CARE WORK by Paula England (Stanford University)

Care work is done in the home as well as in markets for pay.

Five theoretical frameworks have been developed to conceptualize care work; the frameworks sometimes offer competing answers to the same questions, and other times address distinct questions.

• The "devaluation" perspective argues that care work is badly rewarded because care is associated with women, and often women of color.
• The "public good" framework points out that care work provides benefits far beyond those to the direct recipient and suggests that the low pay of care work is a special case of the failure of markets to reward public goods.
• The "prisoner of love" framework argues that the intrinsic caring motives of care workers allow employers to more easily get away with paying care workers less.
• Instead of seeing the emotional satisfactions of giving care as its own reward, the "commodification of emotion" framework focuses on emotional harm to workers when they have to sell services that use an intimate part of themselves.
• The "love and money" framework argues against dichotomous views in which markets are seen as antithetical to true care.
  

DS 126 Modified Graded Recitation (July 14)

On a random basis, each student shall be pitted against another to argue on a specific policy issue in the Philippines. On that day (July 14), one will be assigned to argue for (merits) and another against (demerits) each policy issue listed below. Therefore, all these topics should be studied carefully. I suggest that you form a small study group for purposes of convenience and economy. Each student will be called to enter the room one at a time and will be given 5-6 minutes to deliver his/her points/counter-points. 8 jurors will evaluate all the speakers based on the following criteria (substance, logic and persuasive ability). Good luck!

1. Human Security Act of 2007
2. Amnesty Plan for MILF, NPA and mutineers
3. Rep. Gilbert Teodoro as DND Chief
4. General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS)
5. Commercial structures along baywalk in Manila
6. Lemon law
