【 摘 要 】

Over the past 30 years there has beenconsiderable research on the political economy of reform.Yet despite this, little is known about strategies formanaging the politics of change-moving from a bad to abetter equilibrium. Part of the challenge of studying thisissue stems from the difficulty of obtaining detailed,so-called "blow-by-blow" information on actualreform processes. From this type of information, one candiscern and cull practical lessons on strategy, which by itsvery nature is about dealing with political barriers orproblems as they crop up during the implementation process.This study looks at the sequence of events that ultimatelyled to the passage of legislation that markedly altered therules that govern public procurement in the Philippines. Thestudy attempts to distill operationally useful lessons formanaging the politics of a reform process.
