First published in 1979, Ricardo Manapat's Some Are Smarter Than Others: The History of the Marcos Crony Capitalism is a classic expose of "the political and economic infrastructure of plunder supporting the Marcos dictatorship." Manapat's research began its life as a 40-page pamphlet, photocopied and distributed by hand during the Martial Law years, it "remains a living, burning example of how the plain and simple truth can and must become the most potent, persistent, and amplifiable tool against the powerful structures of oppression."
