The Spectre of Comparisons contains important theoretical and historical considerations about the nature of nationalism & the prospects for the Left in the so-called New World Disorder.
"Hernando J. Abaya ... in his latest book traces the tortuous path of Philippine politics from World War II down to the Marcos years. He demonstrates how the Commander-in-Chief of the US Armed Forces in the Far East, the late General MacArthur, in effect reversed the Roosevelt-Ickes policy toward the collaborationist elite in the Philippines and placed them back in power, enabling the reactionary forces to regain control of the Philippine government and ultimately eliminate those who had in fact resisted the Japanese invaders and how, in the post war years, the liberal and nationalist-minded were hounded and tarred with the communist paintbrush with the help of American advisers and secret service agents"--Foreword.
