Alternative Media: A Lineage of Resistance brings together scholars and media workers to theorize and account for the history and practice of alternative media in the Philippines
This book honors Luis V. Teodoro whose writings on alternative media have challenged the dominant-mainstream framework of media history in favor of alternative media.
Luis V. Teodoro was a journalism professor of the University of the Philippines College of Mass Communication where he was dean for two terms (1994–1997; 1997–2000). Prior to his deanship, he was thrice chair of the journalism department.
He has published two books in the United States: Out of This Struggle: The Filipinos in Hawaii (as editor, and published by the University Press of Hawaii in 1981) and Two Perspectives on Philippine Literature and Society (with E. San Juan Jr., and published by the University of Hawaii Center for Asian and Pacific Studies in 1981). He was editor of the alternative news agency Philippine News and Features during the martial law period.
His collection of short stories, The Undiscovered Country, includes Don Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature, Philippines Free Press, and Carlos P. Romulo award-winning fiction, and was published by the University of the Philippines Press (UP Press) in 2006. A collection of essays on communication, journalism, and the media, In Medias Res, was published by the UP Press in 2012; followed in 2014 by a collection of opinion pieces, Vantage Point: The Sixth Estate and Other Discoveries, which received the 34th National Book Award for Journalism; and Divide by Two (2016), also published by UP Press.

How can I reduce my shipping fee?
One important thing to know is that we do not make any profit on shipping. We simply charge what our couriers charge us. Because we ship in bulk, we often receive discounted rates, and we pass those savings directly on to you. Our goal is always to get your books to you as affordably and responsibly as possible.
If you are ever unsure which option to choose, or if timing matters for a specific order, please reach out. We're happy to help.
