The majority of individuals residing in the archipelago trace their ancestry back to aboriginal communities, whether they identify as part of a tribal group or not. Those who adopt traditional identities often have little else in common. Consequently, the term \"indigenous\" remains unstable and malleable, seventy-five years after achieving independence. By drawing upon insights from Tillian and Foucauldian social theory, Regimes sheds light on how the Philippine state, spanning from the 1970s to the present day, constructs artificial subjectivities that Indigenous peoples are compelled to embody in order to access ancestral resources held by the federal government. What emerges is a clear illustration of the intricate entanglement between governmentality and indigeneity in the Philippines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe notion of indigeneity in the Philippines is a highly contentious political issue.
