Abstract

In 2022, Ferdinand Marcos Jr., the son and namesake of the late dictator, won a landslide victory in the presidential election after campaigning largely on nostalgia for the Philippines’ authoritarian past and perceived former greatness. The country was finally able to reopen from COVID-19 lockdowns after enduring a surge in the Omicron variant in the earlier months of the year. Global food and energy inflation, caused by excessive fiscal spending and monetary easing adopted during the pandemic, in addition to the aftershock of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, has led to an unprecedented food crisis in the Philippines that has been particularly difficult for the poor. In terms of foreign policy, Marcos Jr.’s arrival marked a return to more conventional diplomatic interactions with Washington at a time of increasing tension between the United States and China.

2022年的菲律宾

2022年，已故独裁者的儿子、同名者小费迪南德·马科斯（Ferdinand Marcos Jr.）在总统选举中取得压倒性胜利，他主要是出于对菲律宾独裁历史的怀念和对昔日伟大的感知。在经历了今年前几个月奥密克戎变异株激增后，该国终于能够从新冠肺炎封锁中重新开放。疫情期间过度的财政支出和货币宽松，加上俄罗斯入侵乌克兰的余波，导致全球粮食和能源通胀，导致菲律宾出现前所未有的粮食危机，这对穷人来说尤其困难。在外交政策方面，小马科斯的到来标志着在美中关系日益紧张之际，与华盛顿恢复了更传统的外交互动。

期刊介绍： The only academic journal of its kind produced in the United States, Asian Survey provides a comprehensive retrospective of contemporary international relations within South, Southeast, and East Asian nations. As the Asian community’s matrix of activities becomes increasingly complex, it is essential to have a sourcebook for sound analysis of current events, governmental policies, socio-economic development, and financial institutions. In Asian Survey you’ll find that sourcebook. Asian Survey consistently publishes articles by leading American and foreign scholars, whose views supplement and contest meanings disseminated by the media.
