Abstract

This research note explores the meanings and function of frontier violence in the southern Philippines during a period of American
military rule (1898-1913). It looks specifically at notions of colonial and frontier justice as demonstrated in the local press, and links these to the larger ideals and objectives of American colonialism on a distant periphery.
