The Ateneo de Manila University Loyola Schools present, as their Agenda for Hope, five key areas of engagement where we could bring about positive change: sharing prosperity, democratizing governance, promoting sustainable development, preserving and transforming Philippine identity and culture, and inspiring our youth. More than forty faculty members representing various disciplines brought their research and expertise to bear in addressing the five points of the agenda. Providing a diverse range of perspectives, the authors offer ideas that are realistic, feasible, propose new directions for the future, motivate the audience into engagement and action, and reflect the Ateneo thinking and way of doing things.

From thie Historical Introduction: "The reader familiar with the writings of Rizal and Marcelo del Pilar will notice in some of the writings of Burgos reproduced in this volume the nationalist intellectual heritage on which they drew. Although the struggle for the rights of the Filipino clergy suffered eclipse with the death of the three priests in 1872, the concern of Burgos for the equality of Filipino with Spaniard and for justice to all remained at the core of the nationalist aspirations and representations. These ideals and aspirations had taken root in the course of the dispute over the rights of Filipino secular priests to the parishes, an intra-church dispute which only gradually took on racial, and later nationalist, overtones. Yet, even though the omvement was increasingly nationalist by the 1870s, the campaign was still carried on, for the most part, within the framework of the long-standing dispute in the Philippine church between regular and secular clergy. It is necessary, then to see something of the origins and development of this latter problem to understand fully the developments of the second half of the nineteenth century.
