Abstract

Part II covers the case study—the Philippine Government’s peace and development framework, Payapa at Masaganang Pamayanan (PAMANA—Peaceful and Prosperous Communities). While not expressly called a peace infrastructure, PAMANA follows closely the structures, objectives, and methods associated with it. The Part comprises three chapters, which take the reader through various aspects of the PAMANA programme, moving geographically as well between Manila, the political centre, and Sorsogon province, a conflict-affected periphery. Doing this, it shows a state-initiated peace infrastructure ‘in action.’
