Description
In 12 chapters covering 16 landmark cases, veteran journalists
Marites Dañguilan Vitug and Criselda Yabes revisit historic moments
before the Supreme Court of the Philippines that redefined many of the most fundamental human rights that Filipinos enjoy today.
Written in clear, popular prose with a minimum
of legalese, the book demonstrates what a tenacious pursuit
and imaginative interpretation of human rights can achieve under the law.
Some of these victories may have been partial
or even Pyrrhic, but overall, these stories offer
hope and comfort to the ordinary citizen, and hope in the rule of law
in the Philippines, however flawed.
