CALL FOR PAPERS

Anthropologists and related practitioners are invited to submit abstracts for the 26th UGAT Annual Conference (2004). With the theme, “The Ends of Educating,” the conference seeks to critically reflect on the objectives, perspectives, and methodologies of educating as a purposive endeavor. The conference will address the multiple appropriations of the concept of educating by particular sectors and institutions, including their purpose(s) and outcomes in the Philippines.

Papers, therefore, should interrogate broad agendas associated with “educating” such as (but not limited to):

  • liberation
  • peace and development
  • gender and sexual rights
  • mature citizenship
  • survival tactics
  • nation-building
  • theodicy
  • global competitiveness
  • cultural heritage preservation

In addition, papers should critically examine teaching and learning processes and technologies, covering such topics as (but not limited to):

  • alternative learning systems
  • standard-setting
  • classroom dynamics
  • educational administration
  • textbook writing
  • anthropology in liberal education
  • mass mediated education
  • techniques in teaching anthropology

Abstracts due: 30 June 2004

Abstracts should be 1-page long (single-spaced) and should include the author’s name, institutional affiliation and contact details (mailing address, telephone no., mobile phone number, e-mail address). They should be sent to the UGAT Office, Rm. 208, Philippine Social Science Center, Commonwealth Ave., Quezon City or to ugat04@hotmail.com. For further inquiries, please contact Emma Balmaceda, Jaja Paulate or Monica Santos at 02-9279496 or 926-3993 or at ugat04@hotmail.com. Authors of accepted abstracts will be informed through mail, phone or e-mail by 16 July 2004.

Thus, it encourages them to participate in professional meetings. Entrants will be scheduled in appropriate conference sessions. Prizes will be awarded at graduate and undergraduate levels. Winning papers will be published in the Agham-Tao, the official publication of the Anthropological Association of the Philippines.

E. Arsenio Manuel, University of the Philippines, Diliman

E. ARSENIO MANUEL, 94
Professor Emeritus
Department of Anthropology
University of the Philippines, Diliman

1909 - 2003


DEAN OF PHILIPPINE Anthropology and Father of Philippine Folklore Dr. E. Arsenio Manuel passed away last December 27, two weeks after he celebrated his 94th birthday. He leaves behind three sons, three daughters, 16 grandchildren, a sister, two brothers, and son-in-law Dr. Vivencio Jose of the UP Diliman Department of English and Comparative Literature. He was married to the late Magdalena Avenir Manuel. His remains lay in state at Claret Chapel until January 4 at UP Village before being moved to the UP Chapel prior to interment on January 7 at Himlayang Pilipino, all in Quezon City.

Born in Santo Domingo, Nueva Ecija, to a Filipino-American War veteran and town mayor and his wife, Manuel earned his Ll.B. at the University of Manila in 1935, his M.A. at the University of the Philippines in 1954, and his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1969. He worked as a student assistant in the UP Department of Anthropology from 1927 to 1929; and in the period of 1929 to 1945 as library assistant to College of Law librarian. From 1948 until his retirement in 1976, he went from instructor to full professor of Anthropology; after which he was conferred the title of professor emeritus in the second semester of AY 2001-2002.

His numerous awards include the 1989 CCP Gawad Para sa Sining, the 1991 National Social Scientist Award, and the 2000 Dangal Alab ng Haraya Award by the National Commission for Culture and Arts for a lifetime achievement in cultural research. His more-than-half-a-century work in anthropology includes research and documentation of the Manuvu community in Mindanao and the discovery and publication of three ethnoepics from three ethnic groups: the Manuvu, the Matigsalug, and the Ilianon. He also studied Bagobo folklore and made a survey of Philippine folk epics. His work greatly enriched Philippine anthropology, history, literature, and linguistics.
