This book draws on the extensive literature on populism, democracy, and emerging markets as well as interviews with senior government officials, experts, and journalists in the Philippines and beyond, This book is the first to analyze the significance and implications of the rise of Filipino president Rodrigo Duterte within a rapidly-changing Asia Pacific region.

Timely, precise, accessible and fast-paced, this book will be of value to scholars, journalists, policy-makers, and China watchers. Less
