Ken Fuller traces the ideological schisms, underground networks, and mass mobilisations that defined the Communist Party of the Philippines and its rival factions, presenting a meticulous and unflinching account of a movement perpetually at war with both the state and itself. Drawing on extensive archival research and first-hand sources, Fuller argues that the divisions within Philippine communism were not mere organisational disputes but profound ideological ruptures shaped by Sino-Soviet tensions, peasant uprisings, and the brutal logic of martial law.\n\nFuller writes with the precision of a historian and the narrative urgency of a chronicler deeply invested in his subject, illuminating how radical politics in Southeast Asia was never monolithic but contested, contradictory, and fiercely human. A Movement Divided stands as an indispensable work for anyone seeking to understand the structural forces that shaped modern Philippine political culture — and the unresolved questions it leaves behind will unsettle even the most confident reader.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49210269106395,"sku":"2026200017343-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/a3d712dc-363a-4b20-b378-d31694effbf1.png?v=1788268431","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200017343-secondhand-a-movement-divided-philippine-communism-1957-1986","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
