I ,THE U.P. LAW CENTER: OPPORTUNITY AND CHALLENGE Speaking in 1925 at the dedication ceremonies of the Lawyers Club of the University of Michigan Law School-the law school which gave us our beloved founder and first dean, the late Justice George A. Malcolm-J ames Parker Hall, then Dean of the Univer- sity of Chicago Law Schoolstated:1 "A change is taking place in the conception of the proper function of a University law school. Until very late7iy it was conceived aMno8t whoUy laB a high-grade prOfessional, traimimg school, employingit was true, scholarly methods and exacting standards of study and achievement, but only indirectly seeking to improve the substance and administration of our law. The law, it was assured, was what the courts and legislatures made it, and the task of the law school was to analyze, comprehend,and classify this product, and to pass on to students a similar power of ana- lysis, comprehension,and classification, as regards at least the principal topics of the law, so as to enable them worthily and successfully to play their parts as judges and lawyers in the lists of future litigation." Dean Hall, how.ever,was quick to reassure his listeners-which undoubtedly included a group of law teachers-that this primary law schoolfunction of providing "high grade professional training," was unquestionably a worthy one; that, indeed, it should be prior to all others.

  • 310 Chief Justice Reynato S. Puno
    ∗ FOREWORD Chief Justice Reynato S. Puno∗∗ De minimis non curat lex. The law does not concern itself with trifles. Bringing such theory into reality, this issue of Volume 84 of the PHILIPPINE LAW JOURNAL (PLJ), indeed, encapsulates such adage, with its multifarious scope of articles that will surely spark the interest of every law student and scholar, and with its editors’ impressive discernment of what legal concepts and topics the legal community is hungry for. This issue, from cover to cover, is truly a testament to the reality that the study of law is as fascinating as it is far-reaching. The purpose of a law journal is to provide relevant legal analysis to its readers, and to focus on legal issues that are timely, and legal concepts that are innovative. At present, it is obvious that Filipinos are becoming more aware of the issues that beleaguer Philippine society, with the advent of the Internet, more efficient telecommunication facilities, more aggressive media practitioners, as well as the continuous work of numerous advocates of the freedom of information. Consequently, our people now have a firmer stand and learned opinion of the socio-political and economic concerns of the country such as economic inequities and social equality, regional conflicts and terrorism, globalization and human rights, social justice, and environmental degradation. The complexity of these issues and their significance underscore the need for more information materials to stimulate our people’s intellect and passion to participate in positive change. This issue of the PLJ remarkably addresses this demand, and effectively serves as a catalyst for a healthy debate on the subjects of the published articles.

Policy-making is left to other “political” branches of government. Experience has shown, however, that the judiciary, particularly the Supreme Court, cannot avoid politics because it is asked to decide politically charged issues from the legitimacy of a revolution to the impact of globalization.

  • From Colonialism to Neoliberalism: Critical Reflections on Philippine Mining in the “Long Twentieth Century” Alvin A. Camba1 Preprint Version
    From Colonialism to Neoliberalism: Critical Reflections on Philippine Mining in the “Long Twentieth Century” Alvin A. Camba1 Preprint Version. The article can be found at: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214790X15000507 Abstract Through an analysis of archival data and findings from interviews with industry leaders, I explore the genesis, rise, and fall of the various Philippine mineral regimes of the twentieth century. Specifically, I examine the background of successive and overlapping colonial and neocolonial powers in three eras: late colonial (1901–1941), national developmental (1945– 1964), and state authoritarianism (1965–1985). I also briefly examine the current neoliberal mineral regime (1986–present). I argue that, to date, capitalist enterprises and neocolonial powers have pursued two contradictory paths to extract precious (gold and silver) and base (chromite, iron, copper, nickel, magnesium, and ore) metals in the Philippines. On the one hand, mining companies appropriated expansive land, underpriced labor and inexpensive food to subsidize capital expenditure and mineral operations. The appropriation of basic inputs – or what is referred to as “cheap natures” – allowed these companies to reduce their sunken investments and operational costs. But on the other hand, as the sector developed more, it became increasingly difficult to appropriate such “cheap natures.” While initially profitable because of successful appropriation of “cheap natures,” companies eventually experienced decreasing returns because of the problems this caused. 1. Introduction I present a critical historical overview of Philippine mining in light of changes in the global economy since 1900.2 Specifically, I examine the genesis, rise, and fall of Philippine mineral regimes, taking into consideration successive and overlapping colonial and neocolonial powers, in three eras: late colonial (1901–1941), national developmental (1945–1964), and state authoritarianism (1965–1985).
