Civil Society in the Philippines: Theoretical, Methodological and Policy Debates
Research for the book between 2006 and 2012 entailed extensive new inquiry into the relationship between civil society and development. It included two periods of field research in the Philippines in 2007 and 2009, conducting interviews with subjects from government and civil society organisations and collecting documentary sources. The book also drew heavily on analysis of a wide range of statistical data from international and national government sources. This research was extremely time-consuming both in its organisation and implementation. Overall, the fieldwork, analysis and writing of a 100,000 word text were unusually time consuming compared to other outputs.
