- REFORM OR LEAVE. A RE-READING OF THE SO-CALLED SECRET REPORT BY SINIBALD DE MAS ABOUT THE PHILIPPINES Josep M. Fradera Historia Liberalism colonial policy ethnic cleavages institutional reforms Sinibald de Mas (Barcelona, 1807) was the author of the so-called Secret Report on the Philippine Islands that came out in 1843. The aim of the article is to reconstruct the circumstances and meaning of this well-known piece of colonial policy. In fact, the text is a very intriguing one because at the very end of the text the author suggested an important decision: either to reform or to leave the Spanish possession in the China Sea. Through a detailed analysis of Sinibald de Mas's arguments and propositions, the particular nature of the Archipelago as a Spanish colony can be unveiled. In this light, we can better understand the ambiguous position of that well-informed and diligent Government's informant. 2008 artículo científico 0874-8438 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=36112468006 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=361 Bulletin of Portuguese - Japanese Studies application/pdf Universidade Nova de Lisboa Bulletin of Portuguese - Japanese Studies (Portugal) Vol.16
