Ang eksibit na ito ay ang kulminasyon ng nasabing proyekto\, tampok ang mga sining na nilikha ng mga mangingisda mula sa mga workshop\, pati na ang mga sining na ginawa ng artista ng CAP na sumama sa mga paglubog.\n\n📍 Abril 11 – Mayo 9\, 2026\nPasinaya: Abril 11\, 2026 2:00-4:00PM\nUniversity of the Philippines College of Social Work and Community Development\n1st Floor Walkway\n\nSource: College of Social Work and Community Development Facebook

SUMMARY:"Obeying in Advance: Duterte's Election and the Onset of the Philippine Drug War"
DESCRIPTION:HAPPENING NEXT FRIDAY\, May 8\, 2026. 4:00 PM\, at the Judith R. Duavit-Vazquez and Class of 1984 Lecture Room (UPSE 105)\n\n🎓 UPSE-PCED Friday Seminar\, featuring UPSE Asst. Prof. JC Punongbayan\, Ph.D.\, whose research covers macroeconomics\, economic history\, education\, and development. He has authored two books: False Nostalgia: The Marcos “Golden Age” Myths and How to Debunk Them\, published in 2023 by Ateneo Press and Twin Plagues: How Duterte and Covid-19 Wrecked the Philippine Economy\, which will be published by Penguin Books SEA in June 2026. In 2024\, he received The Outstanding Young Men (TOYM) Award for Economics.\n\n🧠📚💡Abstract: I use event-level data from the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED) to estimate the impact of Rodrigo Duterte’s “war on drugs” on political violence in the Philippines. Constructing a balanced panel of 80 provinces observed weekly from January 2016 through June 2017\, I estimate event-study and difference-in-differences models that compare drug-war-tagged fatalities against a within-country placebo: non-drug-war political violence (battles\, explosions\, and non-drug violence against civilians).\n\nThe headline finding is that the placebo series exhibits no discontinuity around either the election or the inauguration\, while drug-war fatalities show a sharp\, immediate spike. The violence increase is therefore specific to the drug war\, rather than reflecting general conflict trends\, ACLED source-coverage changes\, or other simultaneous shocks. As a precondition for this comparison\, I show that the relevant event date is the May 9 presidential election\, not the June 30 inauguration. I discuss identification challenges\, including anticipation effects\, the endogeneity of ACLED’s tagging\, and the absence of cross-regional treatment variation.\n\n📝 Please register using the links below or by scanning the QR codes in the poster:\n📍 Onsite: https://tinyurl.com/35nbv3xf\n   Zoom: https://tinyurl.com/34v83ff3\n\n👀 We’d love to see you there!\n\nSource: UP School of Economics Facebook
