Explanation: The content of the Research + Activism Bibliography is kept as a group library in the Zotero bibliography manager, and then pulled into this WordPress site through the ZotPress plug-in. Showing the bibliography on our WordPress site allows us to organize and narrate tagged categories to create what amounts to a conceptual map. But search capabilities are simpler. More advanced searching is available through direct online access to our Zotero bibliogaphy (but Zotero's own interface does not allow us to organize and narrate our tags).
For more advanced and granular search by author, title, year, and tag (with abstracts available), use the online interface of the Zotero group library holding our content. Click on "Go to Arrow to right, black Zotero"

Recana, Jaime Red. “Student Activism and Implications for Academic Governance in the Bicol University, Legazpi City, Philippines.” [Beginning of Chapter 1:] Student activism in the Philippines is a phenomenon of the twentieth century, It is considered an educational problem of recent vintage by the Philippine Department of Education, the government’s national agency, which has a powerp over all institutions of learning in the country. Today student activism is a cause for a “dislocation of the educational system" in the country--characterized by disruption of classes, destruction of school property, and the wounding and death of some student participants and innocent bystanders.  The demands of the students were varied and many. The student demands at the university level were: (1) the right to have competent professors, adequate libraries and physical facilities; (2) the right to have a voice in the formulation of policies of the school with respect to student-faculty relations as well as student-administration relations; (3) reasonable tuition fees; (4) academic freedom within the campus; (5) the right to be apprised of the rules and regulations of the institutions; (6) the right to be heard before any penalties are imposed, and in particular, when the penalty is suspension or expulsion; and (7) the right to fair and humane treatment., Bicol University, 1973. https://scholarworks.wmich.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3954&context=dissertations.
