The Asian Liberation Struggles collection is primarily comprised of materials related to the national liberation movement of the Philippines, specifically the revolutionary struggle of the National Democratic Movement against the oppressive U.S. backed Filipino government. Much of the material in the collection includes books and pamphlets focused on opposition to the dictatorial regime of Ferdinand Marcos Senior and continued resistance to US military presence and US-backed regimes through the 1990s including the government of Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. It contains a number of articles, speeches, and pamphlets by Filipino revolutionary Jose Maria Sison (Joma). This collection also includes publications related to China during the 1970s and in commemoration of Mao’s Passing, such as the Peking Review, a couple of monographs related to Bangladesh shortly after independence in 1971, resources on South Korea, and more.
