Portrait of Philips Ferdinand R. Saavedra
Biography
The author of Poliarchism
Philips Ferdinand R. Saavedra is the founder, developer and author of Poliarchism, a political doctrine summed up in the words “people’s politics, institutionalized.”
He developed the doctrine to answer a question many Filipinos share: why the citizen’s voice so often ends at the ballot box, and how participation in public decisions could be built into the institutions of government. The result is a framework of eleven concepts and a five-volume series, offered for study, discussion and academic examination.
He speaks with schools, churches, organizations and researchers on political citizenship, financial citizenship and systemic governance reform.
Speaking
