- Abstract
The Philippine Labor Export Policy (LEP) was an initially temporary policy implemented in the 1970s to help resolve the unemployment crisis under the Marcos dictatorship, and from then on became a permanent fixture in successive regimes' policies. This article presents and analyzes the origins, development, and current problems brought by or related to the Philippine LEP, using the lens of Dependency Theory. This critical review encompasses all regimes from the Marcos dictatorship to the second Aquino administration which all implemented the LEP as a job generation scheme. In general, this article also contributes to the continuing intellectualization of the Filipino language in the field of economics.
