What does it mean to say that Philippine
society is in total crisis? In Alternative to a Dead God, the philosopher
Florentino Timbreza investigates this question. The work interprets
contemporary Filipino values. It analyzes how they have been shaped in part by
the “critique” of traditional Christianity from the standpoint of everyday life
of ordinary people. Finally, Timbreza “tests” the adequacy of philosophic
concepts drawn primarily from the wide-ranging works of the Frankfurt School
theoretician and socialist humanist Erich Fromm.
