    Assessment

    1. What were the historical conditions that led to the emergence of the Chinese
    mestizos as an important element of the Philippine society?

    The Chinese mestizos were an important element of the Philippine society in the 19th
    century. They played a significant role in the formation of the Filipino middleclass, in the
    agitation for reforms, in the1898 revolution, and in the formation of what is now known as
    the Filipino nationality.

    2. What were the implications of their ascendance?


    Chinese mestizos rose to prominence between 1741 and 1898, primarily as a landholder
    and a middleman wholesaler of local produce and foreign imports, although there were
    also mestizos in the professions. The rise of the mestizos implies the Existence of social
    change during the Spanish period, a condition that has been ignored or implicitly denied
    by many who have written about the Philippines.
