Virtual Nation cover

Virtual Nation explores ""a new way of being nation that Filipinos at home and all over the world are creating in cyberspace,"" as it contends that Filipinos are ""still creating the nation our revolutionary forefathers envisioned and died for."" Most of the essays in this book are opinion columns originally written for online publication from 2003 to 2010. In those seven turbulent years major global challenges to peace and survival in the threefold crises of our time-ecological, economic, and spiritual-converged. That they emerged under the troubled Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo presidency coeval with the war-torn, terror-laden George W. Bush years became a double spur to publish this book of ""break history."
