The current dominance of poststructuralism in the West has given rise to the growing concern that this deconstructive discourse is fast becoming a totalizing and universalizing project, this, even as its importance as a critical project is noted. The fear is that such theoretical hegemony can lead to “distortions” in the quest for identity of differently-positioned countries like the Philippines, and of minoritized groups in the West such as Filipino Americans. This study undertakes an inter-translation project between poststructuralist criticism and the project of indigenization as they are articulated in two discursive sites: among Filipino scholars in the homeland and Filipino Americans in the United States. Using insights from dynamic equivalence translation, social movement theory, postcolonial theory, articulation theory, and the principle of the dialectic, it seeks to render a more adequate and complex reading of the indigenization narrative through a self-reflexive application of the critique of anti-essentialism. The result is an empathetic re-reading of the indigenization project showing its emancipatory potential, as well as the limits and promise of its politics, when read through the nuanced lens of poststructuralist criticism. As an interpretive re-reading of practical cultural politics in engagement with the discourse of anti-essentialism in poststructuralist criticism, the study hopes to serve as a model of a dynamic, non-hegemonic, cross-cultural application of theory across politically uneven contexts.
