Drawing on a decade of ethnographic research on the Philippine island of Siquijor, In Pursuit of Progress explores myths, meanings, and practices of development and its counterparts, progress and modernization. It does so by recognizing that, as a cognitive tool for organizing relationships between people, development is personal.
