"This volume presents a serious effort to develop social psychology that is "appropriate" for Philippine society, something called for but neglected over many decades. This book also points to several themes that should be a research focus for all social psychologists throughout the world. The first theme is globalization, and the often problematic relationship between global trends and patterns of behavior within individual societies. A second theme is human rights and duties, and the sometimes conflicting relationship between universal human rights and local values." -- From the Foreword by Fathali M. Moghaddam, Professor, Department of Psychology, Georgetown University
