Warka Adala: The Cosmic Energy Healer
“His [Warka] method of healing is simply “laying of hands”, similar to what Jesus Christ did over 2,000 years ago. There are no elaborate rituals or prayers involved. For want of a better term, I just refer to his method as energy healing. Definitely it is not similar to pranic energy or bio-energy, although it could be partly that? Why? Because pranic energy is applied without touching the body of the patient. It works through the etheric and energy bodies of the person. And it does not have the same effect as Warka’s.” ~ Jaime T. Licauco “Warka heals by putting his hand on top of the afflicted part of the person’s body for about 15 minutes. He closes his eyes and sees colors swirling in the patient’s body. Black means the body part is in bad condition, grey and red mean the patient is in pain. Blue shows healing has begun.” ~ Paul J. Dejillas
Assembling Women
Despite the massive influx of women into the labor force as a result of globalization, the gender inqualities at work have remained largely unchanged. This book addresses two related questions: What has prompted the feminization of manufacturing work in developing countries, and why has it failed to significantly erode gender inequalities at work? Teri L. Caraway offers case studies and in-depth analysis of employment changes in Indonesia combined with cross-national data to show that the feminization of the workplace produced by industrialization policies has reconfigured and reproduced, rather than overturned, gender divisions of labor at work. Caraway challenges the conventional wisdom th...
Democratization, Development, and the Patrimonial State in the Age of Globalization
Postcolonial Third World states have historically faced two major challenges: the promotion of economic development and the creation of stable democracies. These challenges persist today; in the face of globalization. While some developing former colonial countries have gotten a foothold up on globalization others are not so fortunate. In Democratization, Development and the Patrimonial State in the Age of Globalization author Eric Budd investigates and compares forms of patrimonialism in several developing states. The traditional criticism of development countries, leveled by liberal democracies and their constituents, is that too much patrimonialism acts as a barrier in the face of economi...

Working Through the Past
Democratization in the developing and postcommunist world has yielded limited gains for labor. Explanations for this phenomenon have focused on the effect of economic crisis and globalization on the capacities of unions to become influential political actors and to secure policies that benefit their members. In contrast, the contributors to Working through the Past highlight the critical role that authoritarian legacies play in shaping labor politics in new democracies, providing the first cross-regional analysis of the impact of authoritarianism on labor, focusing on East and Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, and Latin America. Legacies from the predemocratic era shape labor’s present in wa...
