<br/><br/>   ABSTRACT :  This article examines neoliberal modes of urban governance and  revanchist urbanism in Metro Manila. Making Manila attractive to foreign  capital, international tourism, and the new urban middle classes, as  well as presenting it as a symbol of the state's attempt to transform  the Philippines into a newly industrialized country, is a vital part of a  neoliberal project that gained power in the mid-1990s. On the one hand,  this project seeks the erasure of marginality and poverty, which contradict  the image of global modernity. On the other hand, it entails a reconstruction  process beyond erasure: the shaping of specific parts of the city as a  globally competitive metropolis freed from all hints of the stark realities  of a Third World country. To underline the argument two case studies are  presented.
