President of the Philippines Rodrigo Duterte has been called many names: The Trump of the East, a dictator-in-waiting, the bastard child of Philippines’ democracy.
Beyond these colourful labels, however, are critical social transformations occurring in the Philippine society that accompany Duterte’s rise to presidency.

This event was the book launch of a new book edited by Nicole Curato: 'The Duterte Reader: Critical Essays on Rodrigo Duterte’s Early Presidency'.
