这本书评估了新民主政权推动土地再分配改革的能力，这是全世界发展中国家关注的一个问题。作者通过详细考察科拉松·阿基诺及其继任者菲德尔·拉莫斯政府下菲律宾土地改革的制定和实施，分析了政治自由化和社会经济改革所带来的问题。他揭示了国家和社会之间的相互作用如何影响政策决定，表明成功的土地改革需要持续有力的政治领导和农民组织的基层鼓动相结合。作者的结论是，新的菲律宾民主已被证明比独裁的马科斯政权更有利于再分配改革，但仍未能实施改革政策中更具争议性和代价高昂的部分。
This book evaluates the capacity of new democratic regimes to promote redistributive agrarian reform, an issue of concern to developing countries throughout the world. The author analyses the problems caused by political liberalisation and social and economic reform by examining in detail the formulation and implementation of agrarian reform in the Philippines under the governments of Corazon Aquino and her successor, Fidel Ramos. He reveals how the interaction between state and society shapes policy decisions, showing that what is needed for successful agrarian reform is a combination of sustained, forceful political leadership and grassroots agitation by peasant organisations. The author concludes that the new Philippine democracy has proved more conducive to redistributive reform than the authoritarian Marcos regime but has still failed to implement the more controversial and costly elements of the reform policy.
